[The following represents an unverified English translation. For all purposes consult the original Chinese text.]
塵緣 [chen yuan]—(chén yuán) - Worldly Attachments
[Terminology] This refers to the realm of the six dusts (六塵 [liu chen]), namely, form (色 [se]), sound (聲 [sheng]), smell (香 [xiang]), taste (味 [wei]), touch (觸 [chu]), and mental objects (法 [fa]). These are taken as the objects of the mind's perception, thereby defiling the mind's inherent nature (心性 [xin xing]). The Sutra of Perfect Enlightenment (圓覺經 [yuan jue jing]) states: "Falsely recognizing the four great elements (四大 [si da]) as one's own body, and the conditioned reflections of the six dusts as one's own mind."
塵緣—【術語】六塵之境，色聲香味觸法也。以是為心之所緣而污心性故也。圓覺經曰：「妄認四大為自身相，六塵緣影為自心相。」
