如理实见分第五
GENUINE DISCERNMENT OF THE PRINCIPLE OF SUCHNESS, FIVE
“Subhuti, what do you think?
须菩提！于意云何？
“Can the Tathagata be seen by means of His bodily form?”
可以身相见如来不？
“No, World Honoured One, the Tathgate cannot be seen by means of His bodily form.
不也，世尊！不可以身相得见如来。
“Why?
何以故？
“Because when the Tathagata speaks of bodily form, it is not (real) form.”
如来所说身相，即非身相。
The Buddha said to Subhuti:
佛告须菩提：
“Everything with form is unreal;
凡所有相，皆是虚妄。
“if all forms are seen as unreal, the Tathagata will be perceived.”
若见诸相非相，则见如来。
