Served an infinite ocean of Buddhas;
Therefore all beings are like River Rapids
Coming to make offerings to the World Honored One.
The Buddha appears everywhere,
In infinite lands in each atom
The realms therein being all infinite too;
In all he abides for endless eons.
Buddha of Yore for the sake of all beings
Cultivated an ocean of boundless compassion,
Entering Birth and Death along with all beings,
Teaching the Masses, Making them Pure.
Buddhas abide in the Matrix of the Cosmos of Real Thus-ness--
Sign-less, Formless, Free from all taints.
When beings observe Buddha”s various Bodies,
All their troubles and pains then dissolve.
Furthermore, the enlightening being Great Brilliance of the Moon Reflected in the Ocean, the Great Spiritual Hero, found the door of liberation producing the means of transcendence pertaining to each stage of enlightenment thereby edifying sentient beings and purifying all Buddha lands. The Enlightening Being Undefiled Treasury of Light of Oceans of Cloudlike Sounds found the door of liberation in every instant of awareness entering into the various distinctions of all objective realms. The enlightening being Topknot born of Wisdom found the door of liberation revealing pure great virtues to all sentient beings when they first arrive at the site of enlightenment. The enlightening being Brave Lotus Topknot found the door of liberation revealing all the Buddha Teachings to sentient beings in accord with their infinite faculties and understandings. The Enlightening Being Sun Banner of Clouds of Universal Knowledge found the door of liberation developing the knowledge of Buddhahood, abiding forever. The Enlightening Being Greatly Persevering with Indestructible Courage found the door of liberation of power to enter into all the boundless symbols of the Teachings. The enlightening being Banner of Light of Fragrant Flames found the door of liberation showing how all the present Buddhas first began enlightening Practice, And on through to their final consummation of the Body of Knowledge and Wisdom. The Enlightening Being Deep Beautiful Sound of Great Enlightened Virtue found the door of liberation Peacefully abiding in the ocean of all the great vows of Vairocana, the Illuminator. The Enlightening Being Born of Wisdom with the light of Great Virtue found the door of liberation revealing the most profound realm of the Buddha, which pervades the cosmos.
At that time the enlightening being Great Brilliance of the Moon reflected in the Ocean, Empowered by the Buddha, observed the ocean of arrays of all the hosts of enlightening beings, and said in verse,
The transcendent means and the stages of enlightenment,
Vast, inconceivable, are all fulfilled:
Infinite sentient beings subdued and harmonized,
All Buddha Lands are Pure.
As Buddha teaches in the worlds of beings,
All lands in the ten directions are filled:
In an instant of thought he turns the wheel of truth
Accommodating it to all states of mind.
Buddha, over countless vast eons,
Has appeared everywhere before sentient beings;
According to his past cultivation,
He shows his purified realm of action.
I see everywhere in all directions
And see the Buddhas showing Mystic Powers
All sitting in Sanctuaries Realizing Enlightenment
Surrounded by Listening Crowds.
The Immense Radiance of Buddhas Reality Body
Can Appear in the World through Expedient Means
According with the inclinations of all beings minds
Raining the teachings to suit their faculties.
