文殊師利白佛言：「世尊！一切諸法皆悉如幻。何以故？譬如幻師幻為隱現，諸法生滅亦復如是。而此生滅即無生滅，以無生滅是則平等。菩薩修此平等，便能證得無上菩提。」
Mañjuśrī addressed the Buddha saying, “World-Honored One! Each and all dharmas are completely, totally illusory. How so? Just like an illusionist makes illusions appear, the arising and ceasing of all dharmas is also like this. Their arising and ceasing, then, is without arising or ceasing, and since there is no arising or ceasing, there is equanimity. Bodhisattvas cultivating this equanimity are then able to realize attainment of unsurpassable bodhi.”
智上菩薩白文殊師利言：「於此菩提云何證得？」
Superior Wisdom Bodhisattva addressed Mañjuśrī saying, “How does one realize attainment of this bodhi?

Mañjuśrī said, “This bodhi is not some thing that can be attained, and is also not something that can be destroyed, nor can it be abided [in] or grasped.”
智上白言：「而此菩提非以住得、非不住得。何以故？以彼法性本來無生，非曾有、非當有、亦非可壞，是故無得。」
Superior Wisdom Bodhisattva said, “Then this bodhi is neither existent nor is it not non-existent. How so? Due to thats Dharma nature, there is originally no arising of it, nor a not yet of it, nor was it, and neither is it able to be destroyed, for this reason it is unattainable.”
