○福智無比分第二十四
Chapter 24: Incomparable Blessings and Wisdom
布施為福，持經為智，以福較智，福不及智，故謂福智無比分。
Giving brings blessings, but upholding the scriptures brings wisdom. When comparing blessings with wisdom, blessings cannot match wisdom. Therefore, it is said that blessings and wisdom are beyond comparison.
須菩提！
佛呼須菩提曰：我說無我、人、眾生、壽者四相，修一切善法，即得阿耨多羅三藐三菩提。良由離此四相以修善法，則了脫貪、嗔、癡、愛四惡業，并六塵不能相染，而六度亦無所住，心念全忘，意識盡泯，湛然清淨之心，真超入太虗境象，得無上菩提。我思無相修善之法，所得真證無上菩提。如是以清淨無為之道心，超出三界，永劫常存，其福德甯有比倫乎？
The Buddha called to Subhuti and said: I speak of the four marks—self, person, sentient being, and lifespan. By cultivating all good dharmas, one attains Anuttara Samyak Sambodhi. This is precisely because, by moving beyond these four marks to cultivate good dharmas, one liberates from the four negative karma of greed, anger, ignorance, and attachment, and the six sense objects can no longer defile. The six perfections also have no abiding, thoughts are completely forgotten, consciousness is entirely extinguished, and the pure, still mind truly transcends into the realm of emptiness, attaining supreme enlightenment. I consider that the dharma of cultivating good without marks, the true realization attained, is supreme enlightenment. Thus, with the pure, effortless Way-seeking mind, one transcends the three realms and endures through countless eons. How could its blessings and merit be comparable to anything else?
若三千大千世界中，所有諸須彌山王。
Suppose that all the kings of Mount Sumeru throughout the great trichiliocosm—the vast universe of a thousand million worlds—were gathered together.
所有諸須彌山王，上至忉利天，下至崑崙際。
如是等七寶聚。
設將七寶聚，如須彌山之高大，
有人持用布施。
其施可謂大，以如是大施之因，必得如是之果，所得福德，亦應大而不可窮極。
若人以此般，若波羅蜜經。
若人以般若經。
乃至四句偈等。
并四句偈
受持讀誦。
受持有得於心。
為他人說。
為他人演說，有益於世。
於前福德。
比前七寶布施之福德。
百分不及一。
百分不及持經之一分。
百千萬億分。
即百千萬億分。
乃至算數譬喻所不能及。
皆不能及持經福德之一分。人可以布施，徒求於外，而不求於心哉。盖以四句偈等，受持讀誦，為他人說，自利利他，直使人我同證無上菩提之大道。至是如如不動之般若，光無不遍，化無不週。乾坤不能覆載，劫火不能毀壞。體物不遺，天人仰賴。以視須彌山之高，不啻大千世界一微塵。其布施之福德，有何可與持經者較量而比議哉。
