若入水时，
当愿众生，
入一切智，
知三世等。
– 文殊菩萨
(华严经: 净行品: 第125偈)
If entering water,
[reflect that] ‘May sentient beings,
enter the [ocean of] all[-knowing] wisdom,*
to know [everything in the] three periods** equally.’***
– Manjusri Bodhisattva
(Avatamsaka Sutra: Chapter 11 On Pure Practices: Verse 125)
* of the Buddhas
** of past, present and future
*** or to know the three periods as equally empty of permanence and self.
