没有老师啊!世间佛陀我独一,获得真正殊胜菩提!等等。第二十八,初转法轮:之后前往瓦拉纳西,当时在仙人堕处鹿野苑,五比丘安住于此。如来从远处看见,互相制定规矩:名为乔达摩者,以多为生者将至,不对其说话,不行礼,不起立,不铺设座位。之后,世尊走近时,因光芒无法忍受,全都起身行礼。一人铺设座位,一人迎接并取走袈裟,有些人洗脚。说:贤者乔达摩到来真好!请在铺设好的座位上坐下。在那里,劝诫他们不要称呼如来为“具寿”或者提及种姓。之后,他们这样说:您之前苦行时,没有获得任何殊胜之处,现在您不坚定,做很多事情,吃很多东西等等,还用说吗?世尊回答说:比丘们,你们没有看到我的感官变得清晰等等,与之前不同了吗?我获得了甘露。比丘们,出家人不应依赖这两种极端:欲望享乐的极端和劳累疲惫的极端。必须依赖中道,也就是八支圣道。当时,五比丘中,早上给两人传授教诲,三人去乞食。那乞食所得供养导师等六人。下午三人听法,两人去乞食,那乞食所得供养五比丘。如来自然不在下午进食。之后,在那些时候,首先念诵与四圣谛相应的经文三次,共十二次,因此,憍陈如证得了遍知,八万天人见到了真谛。之后,对憍陈如说:憍陈如,你遍知法了吗?世尊,我遍知了。这样反复问答,因此被称为遍知憍陈如。当时,从地神夜叉开始,

There are no teachers! In this world, I am the sole Buddha, having attained the true and supreme enlightenment! And so on. The twenty-eighth, the first turning of the wheel of Dharma: Then he went to Varanasi. At that time, the five ascetics were dwelling in the Deer Park at Ṛṣipatana. Seeing the Tathāgata coming from afar, they made a rule among themselves: 'That Gautama, who lives luxuriously, is coming. We will not speak to him, we will not bow, we will not rise, we will not offer him a seat.' Then, as the Bhagavan came near, they could not bear his radiance. All rose and paid homage. One prepared a seat, one welcomed him and took his robe, and some washed his feet. They said, 'It is good that the wise Gautama has come! Please sit on the prepared seat.' There, he advised them not to address the Tathāgata as 'Venerable One' or mention his lineage. Then they said this: 'When you practiced austerities before, you did not gain any special qualities. Now you are unstable, doing many things, eating a lot, and so on. What need is there to even mention it?' He replied: 'Monks, have you not seen that my senses have become clear and different from before? I have attained nectar. Monks, those who have gone forth should not rely on these two extremes: the extreme of sensual indulgence and the extreme of toil and weariness. One must rely on the Middle Way, which is the Noble Eightfold Path.' At that time, out of the five monks, in the morning he imparted instructions to two, and three went for alms. That alms sustained the six, including the teacher. In the afternoon, three listened to the Dharma, and two went for alms. That alms sustained the five monks. The Tathāgata naturally did not eat in the afternoon. Then, on those occasions, first, the verses associated with the Four Noble Truths were recited three times, twelve times in total, and thus, Kauṇḍinya attained perfect knowledge, and eighty thousand gods saw the truth. Afterwards, to Kauṇḍinya he said: 'Kauṇḍinya, have you understood the Dharma?' 'Bhagavan, I have understood.' He repeatedly asked and answered, and therefore he was known as Ajñātakauṇḍinya. At that time, starting from the earth-god yakṣas,

Having turned the wheel of Dharma at the ultimate abode of the gods, the gods increased and the Asuras decreased. All beings are happy, and the sound of special pronouncements with great joy pervaded. Then, the Tathagata again turned the second wheel of Dharma related to the Four Noble Truths for the five aggregates in other ways, and Kaundinya attained Arhatship. Ashvajit, Vashpa, Mahanama, and Bhadrika also saw the truth. At that time, there were two Arhats, namely the Blessed One and Kaundinya. Then, starting from selflessness, the wheel of Dharma was turned again, and the remaining four monks also attained Arhatship, and at that time there were six Arhats. Twenty-ninth, the liberation of the near five aggregates, etc.: Then, the Blessed One was staying on the bank of the river with dangerous currents in Varanasi (Vārāṇasī). There was a son of the chief of the Varanasi (Vārāṇasī) clan named Yashas, who was playing with many women carrying musical instruments. When he woke up in the middle of the night and looked at the circle of women, they were all intoxicated with sleep. Some were unclothed, some had disheveled hair, and seeing various postures, he had the idea of being in a cemetery, and thought, I am tormented! I am ruined! So he shouted loudly and went out, and the non-humans opened the door, and the sound was not heard by people. At that time, the Blessed One was outside the residence, without cover, walking back and forth waiting for Yashas. He also saw it from the other side of the river, Great Shramana, I am tormented! I am ruined! So he shouted loudly. The Blessed One said: Young man, come here! This place will not harm you, nor will it ruin you. Then, Yashas took off his precious shoes and threw them on the river bank, crossed the river and came before the Teacher, and prostrated at his feet. Then he entered the room, and the Teacher taught him the Dharma, and Yashas saw the truth while sitting on that seat, and took refuge. Then, a maid in the house found out that Yashas was gone, and told the master. The head of the clan went out searching with people holding lamps. The horsemen were also sent out to search for Yashas. Then he saw the precious shoes on the river bank.

Seeing with their own eyes and with doubts, they crossed the river and went before the Blessed One. At that time, the head of the lineage, having blessed Grata (གྲགས་པ་, name) so that he would not appear, asked, "Blessed One, do you see the young Grata?" The Blessed One replied, "Householder, wait for that. While sitting on this seat, there is a place where Grata will be seen." Then the head of the lineage was pleased and sat to one side. Again, when the Thus-Gone One taught the Dharma, the head of the lineage also saw the truth. Grata, sitting on that seat, with adornments, attained the state of an Arhat. At that time there were seven Arhats. Then, when the Blessed One withdrew his miraculous powers, the head of the lineage saw Grata and said, "Grata, come here, go home." Then, the Teacher indicated to the householder that Grata had attained the state of an Arhat and that there was no possibility of staying at home. He also developed faith and the next day requested the Blessed One to come to his house for a meal, and then returned. Then, when it dawned and the time for the meal arrived, the Blessed One and Grata went together to the house of the head of the lineage. After the meal was finished, he taught the Dharma, and Grata's mother and wife also saw the truth. Thus, having heard the news that Grata had gone forth, his brothers Immaculate, Full, Ox-Lord, and Good-Hand also went forth. They meditated alone with one-pointed concentration, and before long they attained the state of an Arhat. There were eleven Arhats in the world. Then, having heard the news that the sons of the head of the lineage, who were young and living comfortably, had also gone forth out of faith, fifty sons of the chiefs of the city of Varanasi also went forth before the Blessed One, and meditating in seclusion, they attained the state of an Arhat before long. At that time there were sixty-one Arhats. The story of the thirty who went to Magadha is that on the way, the evil Mara, having transformed himself into the form of a Brahmin, did not succeed even without creating confusion. Then, the monks also traveled separately according to the Teacher's command, doing what was beneficial for beings. The Blessed One himself traveled through the region of Kashi Varanasi, and then went to

途经荣杰城,在拉巴的茂密森林中,(佛陀)住在一棵树下。当时,名为贤善部的六十人,都是精通音乐的女子,她们发誓后,在城外的花园里,用各种食物和各种音乐玩耍。一个女子违背誓言逃走了。然后,她们去寻找那个女子,看见如来佛住在树下,便来到佛陀面前,问道:世尊,您看见一个女子了吗?佛陀回答说:她与你们有何关系?她们详细禀告后,佛陀问道:你们寻找那个女子,与寻找自己,选择哪个?她们回答说:选择寻找自己。然后,世尊为她们开示佛法,她们见到了真谛,仅仅皈依了三宝,就成了比丘尼。这段经文里,虽然有“请求授予居士戒”的说法,但因为只是皈依的居士戒,所以这只是她们的措辞方式而已。过去,在释迦族的领地,有一个名叫天神的婆罗门,他富有且受世尊喜爱。后来,他的亲戚、财富和财产都耗尽了,于是他来到了德坚城。之后,有学问的婆罗门和他的妻子商议,得知世尊来到了那里,说道:今天必须供养世尊食物,但我们连一天的食物都没有,该怎么办?婆罗门说:你可以把自己抵押出去,借五嘎夏巴拿。他们商议好后就这样做了,从一个施主那里借了新衣服和珠宝,给婆罗门的妻子穿戴上,然后请世尊到家里应供。之后,妻子放下珠宝,却被小偷偷走了。婆罗门心想:我再也得不到这样的珠宝了,我只能去森林里等死。他走到一个偏僻的寺庙,看见一个人挖洞走了。婆罗门走到那里,找到了之前的珠宝,然后回到了家。妻子也心情不好地在家里做着家务。

Passing through the city of Rongye, (the Buddha) resided under a tree in the dense forest of Laba. At that time, sixty women named the Virtuous Group, all skilled in music, having taken vows, were playing in the gardens outside the city with various foods and music. One woman broke her vow and fled. Then, they went to search for that woman, and seeing the Tathagata residing under a tree, they came before the Buddha and asked: World Honored One, have you seen a woman? The Buddha replied: What is she to you all? After they explained in detail, the Buddha asked: Which do you choose, searching for that woman or searching for yourselves? They replied: We choose to search for ourselves. Then, the World Honored One taught them the Dharma, and they saw the truth. Merely taking refuge in the Three Jewels, they became bhikshunis. In this passage, although there is the statement "requesting to be granted the lay vows," since it is only the lay vow of refuge, it is merely their way of phrasing it. In the past, in the land of the Shakyas, there was a Brahmin named Deva, who was wealthy and loved by the World Honored One. Later, his relatives, wealth, and possessions were all exhausted, and he came to the city of Dejian at that time. Afterwards, the learned Brahmin and his wife discussed, knowing that the World Honored One had arrived there, saying: Today we must offer alms to the World Honored One, but we do not even have food for one day, what should we do? The Brahmin said: You can pawn yourself and borrow five karshapanas. After they agreed, they did so, borrowing new clothes and jewelry from a patron, dressing the Brahmin's wife, and inviting the World Honored One to their home for alms. Afterwards, when the wife put down the jewelry, it was stolen by a thief. The Brahmin thought: I will never obtain such jewelry again, I can only go to the forest and die. He went to a remote monastery and saw a man digging a hole and leaving. The Brahmin went there, found the previous jewelry, and returned home. The wife was also doing housework at home, feeling uneasy.
