211耕耘菩提(四)–法界觀門頌

Cultivate Bodhi—IV

華嚴宗始祖杜順和尚所作之法界觀門頌:

若人欲識真空理,身內真如還遍外。

情與無情共一體,處處皆同真法界。

只用一念觀一境,一切諸境同時會。

於一境中一切智,一切智中諸法界。

一念照入於多劫,一一念劫收一切。

時處帝網現重重,一切智通無掛礙。

常念誦體會,可由此體悟入華嚴境界。

Cultivate Bodhi—IV

Monk Du Shuen, the founder of the Huayan School, wrote the following verse:

If people intend to realize the truth of real emptiness,

The true suchness within them should be pervasive without.

Sentient beings and non-sentient beings are an integral whole, and

Are in the same dharma realm wherever they are.

We should look at a situation with one thought, and

All situations will meet simultaneously.

There is know-all wisdom in a situation, and

Dharma realms in know-all wisdom.

One thought can illuminate myriad kalpas, and

Each kalpa of thought can accept all.

Layers of the king nets manifest, and

One will have no hindrance if he possesses know-all wisdom.

If we recite this verse often, we will realize and enter the Huayan realm.
