Summary
s.1The Dwelling Place of Mañjuśrī first presents a dialogue between Mañjuśrī and Śāriputra regarding the activity of “dwelling” (vihāra) during meditation, the nature of dharmas, and the “true nature” (tathatā). This opens into a conversation between Mañjuśrī and a large gathering of monks whereby Mañjuśrī corrects the monks’ misinterpretations. Mañjuśrī then instructs Śāriputra on the enduring and indestructible nature of the realm of sentient beings and the realm of reality. Finally, the power of Mañjuśrī’s teaching is explained and reiterated by the Buddha.
s.1《文殊菩薩的住處》首先呈現了文殊菩薩與舍利弗之間的對話,討論冥想中「寺院」(住處)的活動、法的本質,以及「真如」。這引發了文殊菩薩與大量僧眾之間的對話,文殊菩薩在其中糾正僧眾的誤解。然後,文殊菩薩向舍利弗開示有情眾生之界和真如界的恆久不變和不可壞的本質。最後,佛陀說明並重申了文殊菩薩教法的力量。
