Chinese

太阳的光芒总是锐利,但这孩子显现的光芒,肢体接触时感到舒适凉爽,一定是能仁的光芒。像这样说了之后,不给与的比丘菩萨立刻生起想要观看的念头。现在被号称具有大神力的人们围绕着,我们不会找到机会的,到释迦族领地的时候再去观看吧。就这样说了。那时,就在那天,四个方向的国王都生了儿子,菩萨降生时,光芒遍布整个世界,他们都认为那是自己儿子的力量所致。摩揭陀国王大莲花的儿子名叫具形心,舍卫城国王长肋飞的儿子名叫明胜,憍赏弥国王百军的儿子名叫东方,圣国国王无边轮的儿子名叫极明。因为光芒的照耀,所以分别取了这样的名字。菩萨降生的那天,在善贤等地,也生了五百个释迦族的儿子,五百个释迦族的少女,国王的侍从们也生了五百个名叫前行等的儿子,婢女们也生了五百个名叫前导等的女儿,五百头母牛也产了犊,五百匹母马也产了驹,五百个宝藏也开启了,各地方的小国王们也进贡了。之后,国王说,我生了儿子,一切愿望都实现了,因此给这个年轻人取名为一切义成。这样说着,就这么传开了。第七,前往迦毗罗卫城:一个名叫释迦增的夜叉住在迦毗罗卫城,是释迦族供奉的家神。按照传统,释迦族无论生了男孩女孩,都要先向他礼拜。国王也打算这样做,于是将年轻的菩萨安置在四宝抬着的轿子上,国王和大臣等众多眷属一起进入了释迦族领地。当菩萨进入释迦族领地时,那些原本粗暴、傲慢、虚伪、喧闹的释迦族人,行为举止也变得温顺平和。

The sun's rays are always sharp, but the light manifested by this child, when touched by the limbs, feels comfortable and cool, it must be the light of the Able One. After saying this, the non-giving Bodhisattva immediately arose with the desire to see. Now, surrounded by those who are said to have great divine power, we will not find an opportunity, let's go to see when we go to the Shakya territory. That's what they said. At that time, on that very day, the kings of the four directions all had sons, and when the light of the Bodhisattva's birth spread throughout the world, they all thought it was due to the power of their own sons. The son of King Great Lotus of Magadha was named Embodied Heart, the son of King Long Ribs Flying of Shravasti was named Clear Victory, the son of King Hundred Armies of Kaushambi was named Eastern, and the son of King Boundless Wheel of the Holy Land was named Utterly Bright. Because of the light's illumination, they were given such names separately. On the day the Bodhisattva was born, in places like Good Virtue, five hundred Shakya sons were also born, five hundred Shakya maidens, the king's attendants also had five hundred sons named Foremost and so on, and the maidservants also had five hundred daughters named Leading and so on. Five hundred cows also gave birth to calves, five hundred mares also gave birth to foals, five hundred treasures also opened up, and the small kings of various regions also paid tribute. Afterwards, the king said, "I have given birth to a son, and all wishes have been fulfilled," so he named this young man "All Wishes Fulfilled." Saying this, it became known that way. Seventh, going to the city of Kapilavastu: A Yaksha named Shakya Increase lived in Kapilavastu, and was a family deity worshipped by the Shakyas. According to tradition, whether the Shakyas gave birth to a boy or a girl, they would first bow to him. The king also intended to do so, so he placed the young Bodhisattva in a palanquin carried by four jewels, and the king and ministers, along with many attendants, entered the Shakya territory. When the Bodhisattva entered the Shakya territory, those Shakyas who were originally rude, arrogant, deceitful, and noisy, their behavior also became gentle and peaceful.

安住于不语之中,譬如对于苦行极其精通的贤者一般。释迦不能忍受者们,也知晓如贤者般安住是菩提萨埵的威力,因此命名为释迦贤者。之后,当来到接近夜叉释迦增的地方时,那夜叉以自己的形体从住所外面出来,众人见到菩提萨埵的足,触摸并顶礼,释迦族的夜叉神也顶礼其足,因此说这位童子是天中之天,名号的类别命名为天中之天。之后,童子菩提萨埵被众多的侍女们跟随,以一切安乐的用具承侍恭敬,父亲也抱在怀中,再三地思量。那时,召集了婆罗门相师等所有占卜者询问,大多数人知晓身上具有大丈夫的三十二相,具有这些相的大丈夫的去处只有两种,没有其他的。如果安住在家中,就会成为转轮之王,如果从家出家,就会成为如来、阿罗汉、正等觉佛陀。如此授记。菩提萨埵降生后七天,母亲去世,随即转生到三十三天天的殊胜天族中。从那时起,菩提萨埵,身躯百看不厌,声音悦耳动听,眼睛不眨,日夜都在环顾四周,能够分别深奥的意义的词语和文字。第八,大仙人授记等:之后,仙人无烦恼与弟子不施一同为了观看菩提萨埵而出发。无论以神通来多远,当接近迦毗罗卫(Kapilavastu)时,被菩提萨埵的威光所压制,无法以神通行走,只能步行前往,到达迦毗罗卫城王宫的门口,告知了守门人。守门人也禀告了国王,国王以恭敬和

He remained in silence, like a sage who was extremely proficient in asceticism. The Shakya who could not bear it also knew that abiding like a sage was due to the power of the Bodhisattva, so they named him Shakya Sage. Then, when he came near the abode of the Yaksha Shakya Increase, that Yaksha came out of the dwelling in his own form, and all the people saw the Bodhisattva's feet, touched and prostrated to them. The Yaksha god of the Shakya also prostrated to his feet, so they said that this youth was the god of gods, and the category of names was named the god of gods. After that, the young Bodhisattva was followed by many maidens, who served and revered him with all the implements of comfort, and his father also held him in his arms and pondered him again and again. At that time, he summoned all the diviners, such as Brahmin astrologers, and asked them. Most of them knew that he had the thirty-two marks of a great man on his body, and that the destination of a great man with these marks was only two, and there was no other. If he remains at home, he will become a wheel-turning king, but if he goes forth from home, he will become a Tathagata, an Arhat, a perfectly enlightened Buddha. Thus he prophesied. Seven days after the Bodhisattva was born, his mother passed away, and immediately she was born into the excellent heavenly family of the Thirty-three Heavens. From that time on, the Bodhisattva's body was never tired of being looked at, his voice was sweet and pleasing, his eyes did not blink, and he looked around day and night, and he was able to distinguish the words and letters of profound meaning. Eighth, the great sage's prophecy, etc.: Then, the sage without affliction, together with his disciple Non-bestowal, set out to see the Bodhisattva. No matter how far they came by means of miraculous powers, when they approached Kapilavastu, they were suppressed by the Bodhisattva's radiance, and they could not walk by means of miraculous powers, so they went on foot and reached the gate of the palace of the city of Kapilavastu, and informed the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper also informed the king, and the king with reverence and

請入座於殿內,請上座於尊貴的座墊。以真實的話語使大家歡喜,大仙您因何事而來此? 他說:我想看看您的兒子。國王說:現在年輕人正在睡覺,請您在醒來之前稍作休息。 他說:我想看看睡著的神。 然後,仙人看見菩薩沒有閉上眼睛,而是在看著各種事物。 仙人說: 具有血統的駿馬, 就像夜晚睡覺四分之一的時間一樣, 對於那些需要尋求事物的人來說, 睡眠不會在眼睛裡停留太久。 說完,他也認為這是個偉人。 然後,母親的主管將他交給仙人,仙人也仔細檢查後, 對國王說:神啊,相師們對這位年輕人有什麼樣的預言? 國王詳細地講述了以前的事情,說這位偉人有兩種去向等等。 仙人無憂無慮地說: 土地的主人,思考者們的智慧是錯誤的, 在爭論的時代,轉輪王不會出現。 這個功德無上的佛法寶藏, 從罪惡中完全勝利後將會成佛。 此外,如果三十二相不太明顯,他可能會成為轉輪王。 但因為這非常明顯,所以他將成佛。 然後,仙人以自己的神通觀察到, 在如來轉法輪之前, 他看到自己將要死亡, 知道自己無法獲得佛法的喜宴, 便從眼中流下了眼淚。 國王看到後,擔心年輕人的身體會受到傷害,急忙詢問。 仙人說: 即使降下猛烈的金剛冰雹,也不會傷害到這位年輕人。 人王啊,我看到了我的衰敗, 因為我無法獲得寂靜。 與這佛法的寶藏分離後, 我將一無所獲地死去。 說了等等。 然後,在仙人無憂無慮地離開的時候, 所有的道路都被裝飾得美麗。 國王與大臣們一起在城門外送行。 仙人無憂無慮地回到了自己的住所,也展現了神通。 然後

He was invited into the palace, and requested to sit on the supreme seat. He was made joyful with truthful words. Great sage, for what purpose have you come here? He said: I wish to see your son. The king said: Now the youth is sleeping, please rest until he awakens. He said: I will see the sleeping deity. Then, the sage saw that the Bodhisattva was not closing his eyes, but was looking at various forms. The sage said: Horses with lineage, sleep like a quarter of the night. For those who seek things of need, sleep does not stay long in the eyes. So it is, he also recognized him as a great man. Then, the chief of the mothers entrusted him to the sage, and after he had examined him well, he said to the king: O god, what kind of prophecies have the diviners made about this youth? The king explained in detail the previous events, saying that this great man has two paths, and so on. The sage, free from sorrow, said: The lords of the earth, the thinkers, are mistaken. In times of strife, a Chakravartin will not arise. This treasure of Dharma, supreme in merit, will become a Buddha, having completely overcome evil. Furthermore, if the thirty-two marks were not so clear, he might become a Chakravartin. But because this is very clear, he will become a Buddha. Then, the sage, having examined with his own clairvoyance, saw that before the Tathagata turned the wheel of Dharma, he would die himself, knowing that he would not obtain the feast of Dharma, he shed tears from his eyes. When the king saw this, he was worried that the youth's body would be harmed, and asked quickly. The sage said: Even if a fierce vajra hail falls, it will not harm this youth. O king, I see my own decline, because I will not obtain peace. Separated from this supreme treasure of Dharma, I will die without achieving anything. He said and so on. Then, when the sage, free from sorrow, was about to leave, all the roads were decorated and made beautiful. The king, together with the assembly of ministers, escorted him to the outer gate of the city. The sage, free from sorrow, returned to his own abode and also performed miracles. Then

另一次,菩萨坐在母亲的膝盖上,用金碗盛着米饭和肉,因为吃得太多,母亲担心难以消化,所以阻止他,但他不听。母亲试图夺走碗,但没有成功。国王、王后、魔术师、大臣和其他人都无法阻止。于是用绳子系在金碗上,让一头到五百头大象来拉。菩萨用左手的指头抓住金碗,仅仅是拉住,五百头大象就都面向后方,被他拉了过来。人们心想,仅仅用左手就能拉动五百头大象,如果用双手,岂不是能拉动一千头大象吗?因此,当时人们称他为具有千象之力的人。 第九,学习工巧明:之后,菩萨与五百眷属一同前往文字导师昆虫铠甲或一切善友的文字学校。导师写了一个字母给他,菩萨说:“这个我认识,说其他的吧。”导师又写了五百种字母给他,菩萨也同样说认识。导师说:“世间只使用这些字母,其他的我就不知道了。”之后,菩萨写了一个字母给导师看,导师不认识。菩萨说:“这个字母只有在世间出现菩萨和转轮王时才会流行。”当时,天空中的梵天也说:“确实如此。” 之后,菩萨前往算术导师天平的住所。导师所教的算术,菩萨早已知晓。菩萨讲述了导师连一点都不知道的无数种数字和算术。同样,菩萨向自己的舅舅善取学习骑象等,向臀部的导师天神学习五处等,以及武器的机关。菩萨并不依赖导师的教导,而是自己领悟。而五百释迦族少年则认真学习,精通了这些技艺。

At another time, the Bodhisattva was sitting on his mother's lap, eating rice and meat from a golden bowl. Because he was eating so much, his mother worried that it would be difficult to digest, so she tried to stop him, but he wouldn't listen. She tried to take the bowl away, but couldn't. The king, queen, magicians, ministers, and others couldn't stop him either. So they tied a rope to the golden bowl and had one to five hundred elephants pull it. The Bodhisattva held onto the golden bowl with his left index finger, and just by holding on, all five hundred elephants faced backwards and were pulled by him. People thought, "If he can pull five hundred elephants with just his left hand, wouldn't he be able to pull a thousand elephants with both hands?" Therefore, at that time, people called him the one with the strength of a thousand elephants. Ninth, studying the arts and crafts: After that, the Bodhisattva, together with five hundred attendants, went to the writing school of the writing teacher Insect Armor or All Good Friends. The teacher wrote a letter for him, and the Bodhisattva said, "I know this one, tell me another." The teacher wrote five hundred kinds of letters for him, but the Bodhisattva said the same thing. The teacher said, "The world only uses these letters, I don't know any others." Then, the Bodhisattva wrote a letter and showed it to the teacher, but the teacher didn't recognize it. The Bodhisattva said, "This letter will only become popular in the world when a Bodhisattva and a Chakravartin King appear." At that time, the Brahma in the sky also said, "Indeed, it is so." After that, the Bodhisattva went to the residence of the arithmetic teacher Balance. The Bodhisattva already knew all the arithmetic that the teacher taught. The Bodhisattva spoke of countless numbers and arithmetic that the teacher didn't even know a little bit about. Similarly, the Bodhisattva learned elephant riding, etc., from his uncle Good Acquisition, and the five places, etc., from the hip teacher God, as well as the mechanisms of weapons. The Bodhisattva did not rely on the teachings of the teachers, but understood them himself. And the five hundred young Shakyas studied diligently and became proficient in these skills.
