毘婆尸佛偈

身從無相中受生，猶如幻出諸形象；

幻人心識本來無，罪福皆空無所住。

Verse of Vipasyin Buddha

The body is born of formlessness;

just as all forms are manifested as illusions.

The mind of the seer is originally insubstantial;

both condemnation and blessings are of

emptiness and non-abiding.

── from Chanmen Zhu Zhushi Ji Song(Verses of the Chan Patriarchs)
