供養

2.1The bodhisattva Youthful Mañjuśrī then asked the Blessed One, “Blessed One, how should I meditate? How should I assiduously practice this?”

2.1菩薩文殊童子於是問薄伽梵說：「薄伽梵，我應當如何修習？如何精進地修行此法？」

“Mañjuśrī,” replied the Blessed One, “apply your mind as follows. Mañjuśrī, you should meditate on the fact that all phenomena are unborn, all phenomena are unceasing, all phenomena are undefiled, and all phenomena are nirvāṇa and naturally pure.

「文殊菩薩，」薄伽梵回答說，「你應當如下這樣專注你的心。文殊菩薩，你應當這樣觀想：一切現象是無生的，一切現象是無滅的，一切現象是無污的，一切現象就是涅槃，自然清淨。

2.2“Mañjuśrī, to that end, recite this mantra:

2.2「文殊菩薩，為此之故，當誦此真言：

“oṁ svabhāvaśuddhāḥ sarvadharmāḥ svabhāvaśuddho ’ham.”

（咒語不翻）

2.3The Blessed One continued, “Cultivate loving kindness while reflecting on those who are born from the womb, from eggs, and from heat and moisture, and those born miraculously. Generate great compassion focusing on birth, aging, illness, and death. Cultivate joy and equanimity in emptiness, signlessness, wishlessness, and the naturally unconditioned. Mañjuśrī, the four immeasurables thus are the cause that produces bodhicitta, so take this earnestly to heart.

2.3薄伽梵續說：「修習慈心，思惟胎生、卵生、濕生、化生的眾生。生起大悲心，專注於生、老、病、死。在空性、無相、無願和自然無為中修習喜心和捨心。文殊菩薩，四無量心就是產生菩提心的因，你要認真銘記在心。」

2.4“Furthermore, Mañjuśrī, recite the following mantra:

2.4「再者，文殊菩薩，你應念誦以下真言：

“oṁ bodhicittam utpādaya aham.”
