འཕགས་པའི་བདེན་པ་བཞི་དང་། ཏིང་ངེ་འཛིན་ཐམས་ཅད་དང་། གཟུངས་ཀྱི་སྒོ་ཐམས་ཅད་དང་། དེ་བཞིན་གཤེགས་པའི་སྟོབས་བཅུ་དང་། མི་འཇིགས་པ་བཞི་དང་། སོ་སོ་ཡང་དག་པར་རིག་པ་བཞི་དང་། སྙིང་རྗེ་ཆེན་པོ་དང་། སངས་རྒྱས་ཀྱི་ཆོས་མ་འདྲེས་པ་བཅྭོ་བརྒྱད་ལ་བཀོད་པ་ཡོད་དམ།
“Subhūti, if, as an analogy, an illusionist or the apprentice of an illusionist, standing at a crossroads, in the presence of a large gathering of people, were to conjure up a large gathering of people and establish those beings on the path of the ten virtuous actions, or establish those beings in the four meditative concentrations, the four immeasurable attitudes, the four formless absorptions, the five extrasensory powers, the four applications of mindfulness, the four correct exertions, the four supports for miraculous ability, the five faculties, the five powers, the seven branches of enlightenment, and the noble eightfold path; the emptiness, signlessness, and wishlessness gateways to liberation, the eight liberations, the nine serial steps of meditative absorption, the four truths of the noble ones, the meditative stabilities, and the dhāraṇī gateways; and the ten powers of the tathāgatas, the four fearlessnesses, the four kinds of exact knowledge, great compassion, and the eighteen distinct qualities of the buddhas, do you think, Subhūti, that this illusionist or the apprentice of an illusionist would have established any beings on the path of the ten virtuous actions, or would have established them in the four meditative concentrations, the four immeasurable attitudes, the four formless absorptions, the five extrasensory powers, the four applications of mindfulness, the four correct exertions, the four supports for miraculous ability, the five faculties, the five powers, the seven branches of enlightenment, and the noble eightfold path; the emptiness, signlessness, and wishlessness gateways to liberation, the eight liberations, the nine serial steps of meditative absorption, the four truths of the noble ones, the meditative stabilities, and the dhāraṇī gateways; and the ten powers of the tathāgatas, the four fearlessnesses, the four kinds of exact knowledge, great compassion, and the eighteen distinct qualities of the buddhas?”
