Sariputra: If in his dreams a Bodhisattva gives a gift, and dedicates it to full enlightenment,
can that gift be called effectively dedicated? (359) Subhuti: We are face to face with Maitreya, the Bodhisattva, the great being.
The Tathagata has predicted his supreme enlightenment.
He is a direct eyewitness of this matter,
he will dispose of this matter.
Sariputra: Subhuti the Elder, Maitreya, has said: “There is Maitreya, the Bodhisattva, the great being!
He will dispose of this matter.”
Dispose of this matter, Venerable Ajita!
Maitreya:
With reference to what the Venerable Subhuti has said, what corresponds to those words “Maitreya” and “he will dispose of this matter”? Will my form reply? Or my feeling, perception, impulses, or consciousness? Will my outward appearance reply, or my shape? Or will the emptiness of form reply, or the emptiness of feeling, perception, impulses, or consciousness? Obviously the emptiness of form, etc., does not have the capacity to reply.
(360) Nor do I see any dharma which could reply,
or which should reply,
or by which one could reply,
or any dharma which has been predicted to the supreme enlightenment.
