Toh 128

ཆོས་ཉིད་རང་གི་ངོ་བོ་སྟོང་པ་ཉིད་ལས་མི་གཡོ་བར་ཐ་དད་པར་ཐམས་ཅད་ལ་སྣང་བ།
Appearing Differently to All While Not Departing from Emptiness, the Essence of the True Nature of Things
《法性自性空不動照種種一切經》
Dharmatā­svabhāva­śūnyatācala­pratisarvāloka

這部義理深邃的佛經篇幅簡短,開篇描述佛陀住於法性無有動搖,彼時雖無說法之念,與會大眾卻都認為自己已聽聞教法。然而,基於各人不同的感知,他們對於法性產生了五種不同的見地。文殊師利菩薩知曉眾人各有其不同之見解,便問世尊:不同的見地何以產生,此諸見地是否同等成立,見地之歧異是否會引發後世之爭。世尊答道,各人習性與稟賦不同,因而會產生不同見地;五種見地之中,唯有第五種完全契合於諸佛之行境。世尊預言,見解之差異將會在後世中引起長久爭論。文殊師利的最後一個問題是:若此不同見地皆依於同一基礎,那麽這個基礎是什麽?佛陀答言,蘊、界、處是一切體驗的基礎,然而志求無上正等覺者,即便是蘊、界、處,亦不可執以為實。
