English version: Nirvana (Nirvana, Sanskrit, referring to the state of liberation from the cycle of birth and death). What are the ten aspects of Nirvana? They are: ultimately being apart from all afflictive obstructions and cognitive obstructions; universally knowing the emptiness of self (ātman-śūnyatā, Sanskrit, referring to the absence of a permanent self), the emptiness of phenomena (dharma-śūnyatā, Sanskrit, referring to the absence of inherent existence in all things), and no-self (anātman, Sanskrit, referring to the absence of a permanent self); attaining the complete transformation and detachment from consciousness, giving rise to the Dharmakaya (dharmakāya, Sanskrit, referring to the body of truth of the Buddha); naturally and tirelessly performing Buddha-activities for all sentient beings, attaining complete wisdom; attaining the Dharmakaya of all Buddhas without any difference; being apart from the two mindsets of the world and Nirvana; purifying the root of all dharmas; attaining the wisdom of non-arising and non-ceasing in the practice of all dharmas; attaining the actual and equal wisdom of Suchness (tathatā, Sanskrit, referring to the true nature of things) and Dharmadhatu; attaining the equal wisdom of the self-nature of all dharmas and the nature of Nirvana. Good man! This is called a Bodhisattva-Mahasattva (bodhisattva-mahāsattva, Sanskrit, referring to a great Bodhisattva) entering the ten practices of Dharma, being able to know the Great Nirvana (mahāparinirvāṇa, Sanskrit, referring to the final Nirvana of the Buddha) of all Buddhas, Tathagatas (tathāgata, Sanskrit, one of the titles of the Buddha), Arhats (arhat, Sanskrit, referring to one who is worthy of offerings), and Samyak-Sambuddhas (samyak-saṃbuddha, Sanskrit, referring to a fully enlightened one). 'Furthermore, good man! A Bodhisattva-Mahasattva enters the ten practices of Dharma, knowing that all Buddhas, Tathagatas, Arhats, and Samyak-Sambuddhas attain Great Nirvana. What are the ten practices of Dharma? They are: all afflictions have seeking as their root, arising because of seeking; the Buddhas do not have those seekings, therefore they are apart from afflictions, and because of being apart from afflictions, they attain Great Nirvana. 'Because of not seeking, it is called the Tathagata not grasping at a single dharma; one who does not grasp, does not act, does not abide; because of not grasping, it is called attaining Nirvana. 'How does the Tathagata not act, not abide? Being apart from those two dharmas, the Dharmakaya does not cease, does not cease, does not arise, therefore the Tathagata is called attaining Nirvana. 'How does the Tathagata not arise, not cease? That Buddha Tathagata has no one who can speak of it, because it is unspeakable, this is called the Tathagata attaining Great Nirvana. 'Without self, without sentient beings, only the dharma of arising and ceasing, being apart from that dependent dharma, therefore the Tathagata is called attaining Nirvana. 'All afflictions, secondary afflictions, etc., are only transient dust; the nature of Dharma is tranquil, does not come, does not go, therefore the nature of Dharma is neither transient nor permanent; the nature of Dharma is equal, therefore the Tathagata attains Great Nirvana. 'Suchness is the entity, that which is not Suchness is false; the entity is Suchness, Suchness is the Tathagata, therefore the Tathagata is called attaining Nirvana.' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 槃。
