All dharmas are Buddha-dharma, all affairs are Buddha's work

All sharp arrows are shot from one's own mind and reach nowhere else. Therefore, to harm others is to harm oneself, and to benefit others is to benefit oneself!

All sentient beings are shooting arrows and being shot within the one true dharma realm; all are shooting at the one true dharma realm, yet the one true dharma realm remains unharmed and undamaged. If one does not understand this principle, that is ignorance (avidyā). With ignorance deep and heavy, one will inevitably sink through birth and death and be unable to attain liberation!

The one true dharma realm is a great net, netting the myriad dharmas—hundreds of millions of dharmas, hundreds of millions upon millions of dharmas, endless and inexhaustible dharmas—within it. The tathāgatagarbha, the immovable place of practice, reaches everywhere and encompasses all dharmas; not a single dharma lies outside of it. The manas follows it, pervading everywhere and cognizing all dharmas, without needing to come or go, without needing to move. The six consciousnesses follow the manas, also without coming or going; all discriminate, discern, and act within the tathāgatagarbha, never departing from the place of practice, while performing the Buddha's work.

Within the Buddha's place of practice, whatever one does is performing the Buddha's work. Even Māra Pāpīyas, in destroying the Buddha's Dharma, is performing the Buddha's work—there is no work of Māra, because all dharmas are the Buddha's Dharma; all are the tathāgatagarbha. Nothing transcends the tathāgatagarbha, nothing transcends the one true dharma realm. Therefore Māra does not perform the work of Māra; the work of Māra is itself the Buddha's work—without duality, without difference! If anyone makes the distinction between Māra and Buddha, that is ignorance. Without eliminating ignorance, one cannot attain buddhahood.
