For those who only look at the savior of the world, to say that one sees

Buddha only after evolving Manjusri is the principal leading bodhisattva of


this world, yet because he made up the idea of seeing Buddha and made up
the idea of hearing Dharma he was overcome by the inconceivable power of
Buddha and cast down between two enclosures of iron mountains.  It is not
that he does not know how to specially act as a standard for students; he is
commanding all students of later times not to concoct such seeing and
hearing.  Just have no doctrines of existence, nonexistence, and so on, no
views of being, nonbeing, and so on—pass through and beyond the three
stages.  This is called the wish-fulfilling gem; this is called jewel flowers
supporting your feet.

If you create a view of Buddha or a view of truth, or views of anything at all,


existent, nonexistent, or whatever, these are called illusions of diseased eyes. 
Based upon opinion, they may also be called the enclosure of views, the lid of
views, or the affliction of views.

Right now, in moment after moment of awareness, if all that is seen, heard,
supposed, and perceived, and all defiling data of afflictions and passions are
thoroughly cleared, then even a single atom, even a single form, is a Buddha;
even a single moment of thought is the past, present, and future body-mind of
one Buddha.  Thought after thought—who knows how many—

in the six courses of existence for a long time is in order to explain that a
Buddha is hard to meet.*
