入里乞食，当愿众生，
入深法界，心无障碍。
到人门户，当愿众生，
入于一切，佛法之门。
入其家已，当愿众生，
得入佛乘，三世平等。
– 文殊菩萨
(华严经: 净行品: 第105-107偈)
Entering villages to request [alms]food,
[reflect that] ‘May sentient beings,
enter the profound Dharma’s realm,
[with] minds without obstacles.’
Arriving at people’s doors,
[reflect that] ‘May sentient beings,
enter all of
[the] Buddha’s Dharma doors.’
Entering their homes already,
[reflect that] ‘May sentient beings,
attain entry [into the] Buddha’s vehicle,
[to be the] three periods’* equals.’**
– Manjusri Bodhisattva
(Avatamsaka Sutra: Chapter 11 On Pure Practices: Verse 105-107)
* of past, present and future
** as Buddhas
