|---|---|---|
| 我昔诸般恶业 皆由无始 | Wǒ xī zhū bān è yè, jiē yóu wú shǐ | All my karmas of auld arise from the time without beginning. |
| 十方尘刹极微 我皆深入 | Shí fāng chén chà jí wēi, wǒ jiē shēn rù | The infinitesimal dust motes[note 1] in ten directions, I shall deeply delve into all of them. |
| 以若立名正因 云何等至 | Yǐ ruò lì míng zhèng yīn, yún hé děng zhì | If one establishes names as the right cause, how can he reach meditative absorption (samāpatti)? |
| 想全无同痴暗 作如是念 | Xiǎng quán wú tóng chī àn, zuò rú shì niàn | To be completely without thought is like an ignorant darkness, making such reflections. |
| 非想非非想间 如病如箭 | Fēi xiǎng fēi fēi xiǎng jiān, rú bìng rú jiàn | In the realm of perception and non-perception, it is like a disease, perhaps an arrow. |
| 我信彼降下渊 信彼升天 | Wǒ xìn bǐ jiàng xià yuān, xìn bǐ shēng tiān | I believe he hath descended to the abyss. I believe he hath ascended to the heavens. |
| 空谓空及非我 无相无愿 | Kōng wèi kōng jí fēi wǒ, wú xiàng wú yuàn | Emptiness means voidness and non-self, formlessness and wishlessness. |
| 后缘无相定处 无漏不然 | Hòu yuán wú xiàng dìng chù, wú lòu bù rán | Hereafter asserting the state of formless absorption, the undefiled cannot come to be. |
| 诸恶业 贪嗔痴始 | Zhū è yè, tān chēn chī shǐ | All evil karmas begin from greed (lobha), anger (dosa), and ignorance (moha).[note 2] |
| 十方尘刹极微 我皆深入 | Shí fāng chén chà jí wēi, wǒ jiē shēn rù | The infinitesimal dust motes in ten directions, I shall deeply delve into all of them. |
| 以若立名正因 云何等至 | Yǐ ruò lì míng zhèng yīn, yún hé děng zhì | If one establishes names as the right cause, how can he reach meditative absorption (samāpatti)? |
| 想全无同痴暗 作如是念 | Xiǎng quán wú tóng chī àn, zuò rú shì niàn | To be completely without thought is like an ignorant darkness, making such reflections. |
| 非想非非想间 如病如箭 | Fēi xiǎng fēi fēi xiǎng jiān, rú bìng rú jiàn | In the realm of perception and non-perception, it is like a disease, perhaps an arrow. |
| 我信彼降下渊 信彼升天 | Wǒ xìn bǐ jiàng xià yuān, xìn bǐ shēng tiān | I believe he hath descended to the abyss. I believe he hath ascended to the heavens. |
| 空谓空及非我 无相无愿 | Kōng wèi kōng jí fēi wǒ, wú xiàng wú yuàn | Emptiness means voidness and non-self, formlessness and wishlessness. |

Notes
- ↑ This is the combination of two concepts: the "Dust-Mote Universe" — a worldview in Avatamsaka Sutra stating that the whole world is contained in a dust-mote arose from the deep meditative consciousness of Buddhist ascetics, and the "Paramanu" — a Buddhism concept of the indivisible unit of matter, comparable to an atom. It is crucial for analyzing the composition of physical existence and the nature of reality.
- ↑ In Buddhism terms, these are called the "three poisons" or the "three unwholesome roots" (Pali: akusala-mūla), which are the negative state that leads to all negative states and are the cause of suffering and rebirth.
Trivia
Etymology
