The Third of Ten Wrong States – Believing That There Is Permanent Abode
“Again, the good practitioner has now completely emptied the skandha of mental formations and put an end to mental arising and ceasing, but he has not perfectly realized the subtle wonder of Nirvana. If at this point, he regards what he is returning to as a permanent abiding, then he may mistake it for a place where his body and mind, as well as all things in the ten directions come forth, then he may further mistakenly regard this place where everything comes forth as a truly permanent body that is not subject to birth and annihilation. Since he himself is actually still subject to death and rebirth, it is premature for him to speculate that he is now abiding in permanence. And by being confused about non-arising, he also becomes confused about arising and perishing, and gradually he becomes content to abide in total confusion, even interpreting it as the ultimate truth.
“Thus, he falls into the wrong view of taking the consciousness skandha as permanent and taking the god Ishvara as his companion. Confused about the Bodhi of the Buddhas, he wanders off from the Path of the Buddhas’ Right Knowledge and Proper Views.
“This is the third wrong state, where the practitioner believes that there is a permanent abode where he comes from, which leads him to stray far away from perfect enlightenment, to turn his back on the City of Nirvana, and ultimately to sow the seeds of being reborn in a place that he wrongly regards as being perfect.”
又善男子，穷诸行空，已灭生灭，而于寂灭精妙未圆。若于所归，有所归依，自疑身心，从彼流出，十方虚空咸其生起 。即于都起，所宣流地，作真常身，无生灭解。在生灭中，早计常住，既惑不生，亦迷生灭，安住沉迷，生胜解者 。是人则堕常非常执，计自在天成其伴侣，迷佛菩提，亡失知见。是名第三，立因依心，成妄计果。违远圆通，背涅槃城，生倒圆种。
