譯文／唐．義淨（635～713）

心去如風，不可捉故；

心如流水，生滅不住。

心如燈焰，眾緣有故；

心如虛空，客塵染故。

──選自《大寶積經》

Mind

Translated by Yijing (635 - 713, Tang Dynasty)

English translation:Venerable You Zai

The mind is like wind,

which cannot be grasped;

The mind is like water,

which arises and ceases;

The mind is like flame,

which is produced from myriad conditions;

The mind is like emptiness,

in which defilements are impermanent.

── from Maharatnakuta Sutra
