The king, not believing, handed a vessel filled to the brim with oil to a man facing execution for a violation, threatening that even a single drop would result in death. He then made him walk past the dancing people. Afterward, the king had him asked what kind of songs and music he had seen. The man replied, "I was afraid of being executed, so I saw nothing." Thereupon, the Blessed One said, "If even fear of a single lifetime's suffering makes one so mindful, what need is there to mention that monks, fearing the suffering of many lifetimes, should always guard their mindfulness?" After that, the king became even more faithful and made great offerings to the Blessed One and his retinue. Then he asked, "Is there any offering greater than this offering to the Blessed One?" The Blessed One replied, "This is not so remarkable. A girl had no other possessions, so she sold her five hundred hairs to make this offering." The Blessed One spoke thus. The king thought that possessing hair worth five hundred 'panas' was rare even among the gods. So he sent people to beg from those who lived on sour porridge and, with great wealth, took the Brahmin girl with the hair as his queen. He also gave five hundred hidden ornaments and other things to the Brahmin mother. When the hair-woman arrived in the Holy Kingdom, the remnants of the plague quickly subsided, so she was named Queen 'Ba'. Here, the interspersed story is: Although not immediately following, at another time long after that, the king also killed many women. He pretended to offer a feast to many Brahmins, having arranged beforehand that an executioner would stand behind each Brahmin, and when he said, "Some sour porridge!" all were beheaded and killed at once. That night, the king dreamed that he heard: "Sixty thousand eons, sixty hundred thousand eons, beings tormented in hell, when will they ever end?" and so on, six sounds of the earth, and "Only a little essence remains, all has been dug out, the demon king is displeased with the essence, he has given up hope," and so on, six sounds of the sky. He also saw his body being smeared with white sandalwood, sprinkled with red powder, burned by fire, cut by swords, pierced by spears, dragged by iron hooks, eaten by worms, devoured by dogs and vultures, poisoned, covered with flowers, wrapped in silk, adorned with jewels, singing, dancing, playing music, experiencing joy, experiencing suffering, experiencing happiness, being tormented by non-humans, and so on. Afterward, he asked the Blessed Buddha. The Blessed One replied, "King, the beings you saw tormented in hell are the result of your killing many Brahmins. What you heard, 'Only a little essence remains,' is that only a remnant of your life remains. What you heard, 'The demon is displeased with the essence, he has given up hope,' is that your life will soon end. What you saw, your body being smeared with white sandalwood, is the result of your honoring monks. What you saw, being sprinkled with red powder, is the result of your shedding much blood. What you saw, being burned by fire, is the result of your being burned by fire in hell. What you saw, being cut by swords, is the result of your being cut by swords in hell. What you saw, being pierced by spears, is the result of your being pierced by spears in hell. What you saw, being dragged by iron hooks, is the result of your being dragged by iron hooks in hell. What you saw, being eaten by worms, is the result of your being eaten by worms in hell. What you saw, being devoured by dogs and vultures, is the result of your being devoured by dogs and vultures in hell. What you saw, being poisoned, is the result of your being poisoned in hell. What you saw, being covered with flowers, is the result of your offering flowers to monks. What you saw, being wrapped in silk, is the result of your offering silk to monks. What you saw, being adorned with jewels, is the result of your adorning monks with jewels. What you saw, singing, is the result of your singing for monks. What you saw, dancing, is the result of your dancing for monks. What you saw, playing music, is the result of your playing music for monks. What you saw, experiencing joy, is the result of your causing monks to experience joy. What you saw, experiencing suffering, is the result of your causing much suffering. What you saw, experiencing happiness, is the result of your causing monks to experience happiness. What you saw, being tormented by non-humans, is the result of your killing many non-humans. King, the deeds you have done in the past, you are now experiencing their results. Therefore, you must not take life again." The Blessed One said thus. After that, the king was terrified and took refuge in the Buddha.

火球燃烧，两个腋窝各垂下一条蛇，两条腿上各有一只海螺舔舐，两只天鹅在天空飞翔，一座黑山从前方而来，不净之物洒在水鸟的头上，做了这八个梦。第二天问婆罗门们，他们心知是好兆头，却想歪曲解释，于是说要用杀死五种 श्रेष्ठ 的血来沐浴等等。国王对这些话不满意，寂静劝说后去问迦旃延，迦旃延安慰说：“是好梦，不要害怕。”然后解释说：地神的六种声音是：国王，你的父辈祖先大约六代，以佛法与非法混杂的方式治理国家，生于地狱的众生，饱受痛苦，追悔以前的行为而发出的声音。空中的六种声音，第一种是：你的房屋的栋梁，除了核心部分，大部分已被虫蛀蚀，所以要更换栋梁。第二种是：马夫娶妻后，取出了所有乌鸦的蛋，以后不要再让人破坏鸟巢。第三种是：花园池塘的水干涸，水鸟感到悲伤，所以要填满池塘的水。第四种是：从暴虐的山上抓来一头年轻的大象，它想起瞎眼的父母，不吃草不喝水，发出哀嚎，所以放了它。第五种是：你抓住了一只鹿，它想起伴侣而发出的声音，所以也放了它。第六种是：你抓住了一只天鹅，它看到其他天鹅飞走而感到悲伤，所以也放了它。八个梦兆的第一个是：身体高大的国王会送给你小牛皮作为礼物。第二个是：大地之王会送给你一件红色的珍贵衣服。第三个是：雅瓦纳国王会送给你一串金项链。第四个是：汉地国王会送给你一对宝剑。第五个是：僧伽罗国王会送给你一对宝石鞋子。第六个是：巴嘎拉国王会送给你两匹马。第七个是：卡alinga国王会送给你一头象王作为礼物。这些礼物将在七天之内到来。第八个梦兆只有你和寂静两人知道。但是，不要对婆罗门们产生恶意。

A fireball was burning, a snake was hanging from each of the two armpits, a conch shell was licking each of the two legs, two swans were flying in the sky, a black mountain was coming from the front, and impure things were scattered on the heads of water birds. These were the eight dreams he had. The next morning, when he asked the Brahmins, they knew it was a good omen, but they thought they should interpret it wrongly. So they said that he had to bathe in the blood of killing the five supreme ones, etc. The king was not satisfied with these words, so after being urged by Zhiwa (Peace), he asked Katyayana. Katyayana comforted him, saying, "It is a good dream, do not be afraid." Then he explained: The six sounds of the earth deity are: King, your ancestors for about six generations ruled the country by mixing Dharma and non-Dharma. Those born in hell, suffering greatly, regretted their previous actions and uttered these sounds. The first of the six sounds in the sky is: The pillars of your house, except for the core, have been mostly eaten by insects, so replace the pillars. The second is: After the horseman married, he took out all the crow's eggs, so don't let anyone destroy the nests in the future. The third is: The water in the garden pond has dried up, and the water birds are sad, so fill the pond with water. The fourth is: A young elephant was captured from the violent mountain. It remembered its blind parents, did not eat grass or drink water, and wailed, so release it. The fifth is: You captured a deer, and it uttered sounds remembering its mate, so release it too. The sixth is: You captured a swan, and it felt sad seeing other swans flying away, so release it too. The first of the eight dream omens is: The king with a tall body will send you calfskin as a gift. The second is: The king of the earth will send you a red precious garment. The third is: The king of Yavana will send you a gold necklace. The fourth is: The king of China will send you a pair of swords. The fifth is: The king of Simhala will send you a pair of jeweled shoes. The sixth is: The king of Vanga will send you two horses. The seventh is: The king of Kalinga will send you an elephant king as a gift. These gifts will arrive within seven days. The eighth dream omen is known only to you and Zhiwa (Peace). However, do not harbor ill will towards the Brahmins.

如是说后，国王如获新生般欣喜若狂，并遵照所说的一切执行。七日之内，礼物也送到了。国王非常虔诚，将第一份礼物，即精美的细布，献给了圣者迦旃延。其余五件珍品，任由他们挑选。王后寂静选择了金项链，王后青莲和女儿度母选择了衣服，幼子牧童选择了两匹马，大臣供养选择了宝剑，婆罗门祭司选择了鞋子。大象则归国王自己所有。之后，光明王将王位献给圣者迦旃延及其僧团，但未被接受。他又献出了一半可以随心所欲使用的王位，也未被接受。当他请求供养最上等的享用和器具时，迦旃延之子从圣王寺请示了导师。导师生起了世间的心，并从舍卫城颁布了圣旨。迦旃延以天耳听闻，并进行了请示和答复。为了怜悯后世之人，并为了施主之享用增长，才如此供养僧团，而非供养个人。享用是城镇和土地。最上等的享用是牛、水牛以及山羊绵羊等。如是等等说道，国王供养了许多器具完备的寺庙，并将享用和最上等的享用供养给了四方的僧团。当时，世尊授记说：我的居士之中，最初以一切欲妙供养僧团的最胜者是光明王。供养食物的最胜者是具身，供养住所的最胜者是给孤独，建造寺庙的最胜者是善贤居士。如是也说道。暴君光明王所拥有的五种珍品，就是上面所说的那些。近处的五种珍品是：名为莲花山的象，一日可行一百由旬；名为善妙母象，一日可行八十由旬；名为海足的骆驼，一日可行七十由旬；名为衣颈的马，一

Having spoken thus, the king was overjoyed as if he had regained his life, and carried out all that was said. Within seven days, the gifts also arrived. The king, with great devotion, offered the first gift, a large piece of fine cloth, to the venerable Katyayana. As for the other five precious items, he allowed them to choose as they wished. The queen Shanti chose a gold necklace, the queen Kyaseng and her daughter Dolma chose a robe, the young prince Balang Kyong chose two horses, the minister Sospe chose a sword, and the Brahmin priest chose shoes. The elephant belonged to the king himself. Then, King Rabnang offered the kingdom to the venerable Katyayana and his Sangha, but it was not accepted. He then offered half of the kingdom, which could be used with power for all desires, but it was also not accepted. When he requested to offer the best of enjoyments and utensils, Katyayana's son inquired of the Teacher from the Jetavana Monastery. The Teacher generated worldly compassion and issued a decree from Shravasti. Katyayana heard with divine ears and made requests and responses. For the sake of compassion for future generations and for the increase of the patron's enjoyments, such offerings are made to the Sangha, not to individuals. Enjoyments are towns and fields. The best of enjoyments are cattle, buffaloes, and goats, sheep, and so on. Thus, and so on, he spoke, and the king offered many monasteries complete with utensils, and offered enjoyments and the best of enjoyments to the Sangha of the four directions. At that time, the Bhagavan prophesied, saying: Among my lay followers, the foremost who first empowers the Sangha with all desires is Rabnang. The foremost in offering food is Gzugs can snying po (Rūpavatī, Essence of Form). The foremost in offering lodging is Gonme Zes Jin (Anāthapiṇḍada, Giver of Food to the Helpless). The foremost in building monasteries is Khyimdag Bzangdan (Sudatta, Good Giver). Thus, he also said. The five precious items possessed by the tyrannical King Rabnang are those mentioned above. The five nearby precious items are: the elephant named Lotus Mountain, which can travel a hundred yojanas in one day; the female elephant named Good Fortune, which can travel eighty yojanas in one day; the camel named Ocean Foot, which can travel seventy yojanas in one day; the horse named Cloth Neck, which can trave
