The "Samādhi of Awakening Consciousness in the Explanation of the Mahāprajñāpāramitā Sūtra," expounded by the Sui dynasty eminent monk Zhiyi, is a crucial Chan practice text of the Tiantai school. This work centers on the insight of śūnyatā (emptiness) in Prajñāpāramitā, elucidating the methods for cultivating the samādhi of awakening consciousness, emphasizing the realization of Wisdom (Prajñā) through contemplating the true nature of mental activities. Zhiyi integrated the doctrinal principles of the Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra with the practice of śamatha (calm abiding) and vipaśyanā (insight), constructing a systematic theoretical framework for meditation. This scripture represents the maturation of early Chan thought in Chinese Buddhism, exerting a profound influence on the formation of the Tiantai tradition of cultivating both śamatha and vipaśyan


釋摩訶般若波羅蜜經覺意三昧
隋天台智者大師說
門人灌頂記
辯法相第一
夫行人欲度生死大海。登涅槃彼岸者。必須了達妄惑之本。善知至道出要。妄惑之本。是即意之實際。至道出要。所謂反照心源。識之實際即是正因佛性。反照心源即了因也。而此二因。攝一切法罄無不盡。譬如清淨虛空之中。圓滿日光湛然而照。然此空之與日。非即非離非住非不住。而日善作破暗良緣。顯空之要。雖復滅暗顯空。空無損益。理實無損事以推之。暗蔽永除。性乃無增。空界所含萬象皆現。而此虛空性雖清淨。若無日光則有暗起。非以虛空空故自能除暗。暗若除者。必假日光。日若無空。無光無照。空若無日。暗不自除。然此暗性無來無去。日之體相亦不生滅。但有日照空。則乾坤洞曉。以智慧日照心性空。亦復如是。如日非即空。亦不離虛空。若日即是空虛空何能照。若日離於空。則不應依空而有照。慧日亦如是。非即心性空。非離心性空。若即心性空。則不因修而有照。若離心性空修亦不能照。如日非住空亦非不住空。以不住空故能照一切空。非不住空故終不墮於空。慧日亦如是。深觀心性空不住心性空。能照一切空。非不住空故。雖照一切空慧心無動退。如日能破暗。顯出虛空相。慧日亦如是。能破無明暗。顯發心實相。如日雖滅暗顯於虛空相。而空無損益。慧日亦如是。能除無明暗顯發心實相。而於心性空不增亦不減。如日不損空。亦復不益空。能除空中暗顯空界萬象。慧日亦如是。雖於心性空無損亦無益能斷諸煩惱而成就萬行顯現一切法。如空雖清淨無日故暗起。心性亦如是。本來雖清淨。以無智慧光則有妄惑起。如空雖清淨不能自除暗。而暗得除者必假於日光。心性空亦爾。本來雖清淨不能自除惑。而惑得滅者必以智慧照。如日若無空則無光。亦無照。空若無日者則暗終不除。慧日亦如是。若無心性空則何能有所照。若心性空無慧妄惑終不斷。如暗無去來。日亦不生滅。解惑亦如是。假名說破惑。惑性無所有。不來亦不去實亦無所破。智慧雖普照。其性常寂然。不生亦不滅畢竟無所照。如有日照空則乾坤洞然曉。反觀心性空。則一切世間諸法及一切出世間法朗然圓顯。以是義故。說智慧照於心性。如空中之日。若能尋空日十喻。達諸法相。因此入覺意海。是則名為辯諸法相也。
