ཀཽ་ཤི་ཀ་དེ་བཞིན་དུ་བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་དཔའ་སེམས་དཔའ་ཆེན་པོ་ཤེས་རབ་ཀྱི་ཕ་རོལ་ཏུ་ཕྱིན་པ་ལ་སྤྱོད་པ་རྣམས་བསྲུང་བ་དང་། བསྐྱང་བ་དང་། བསྐྱབ་པར་གང་སེམས་པ་དེ་ནི་བསམ་པ་ལྟར་མྱི་འགྲུབ་ཅིང་། དུབ་པའི་སྐལ་བ་ཅན་དུ་འགྱུར་རོ། །དེ་ནས་ལྷའི་དབང་པོ་བརྒྱ་བྱིན་གྱིས།
Then Śakra, mighty king of the gods, asked the venerable Subhūti, “Venerable monk Subhūti, bodhisattva great beings who practice the perfection of wisdom comprehend phenomena that are like a dream, phenomena that are like an illusion, a mirage, an echo, an optical aberration, a castle in the sky, and a magical display, and yet, comprehending in that manner, to what extent do bodhisattva great beings not give rise to the conceit of a dream, not give rise to conceit on account of a dream, not give rise to the conceit that a dream is ‘mine,’ and not give rise to conceit about a dream; do they not give rise to the conceit of an illusion, not give rise to conceit on account of an illusion, not give rise to the conceit that an illusion is ‘mine,’ and not give rise to conceit about an illusion; do they not give rise to the conceit of a mirage, not give rise to conceit on account of a mirage, not give rise to the conceit that a mirage is ‘mine,’ and not give rise to conceit about a mirage; do they not give rise to the conceit of an echo, not give rise to conceit on account of an echo, not give rise to the conceit that an echo is ‘mine,’ and not give rise to conceit about an echo; do they not give rise to the conceit of an optical aberration, not give rise to conceit on account of an optical aberration, not give rise to the conceit that an optical aberration is ‘mine,’ and not give rise to conceit about an optical aberration; do they not give rise to the conceit of a castle in the sky, not give rise to conceit on account of a castle in the sky, not give rise to the conceit that a castle in the sky is ‘mine,’ and not give rise to conceit about a castle in the sky; and do they not give rise to the conceit of a magical display, not give rise to conceit on account of a magical display, not give rise to the conceit that a magical display is ‘mine,’ and not give rise to conceit about a magical display?”
