Chinese

一个母亲能行五十踰缮那,名叫乌鸦的信使,一天能行二十踰缮那。如此,暂且按照声闻乘的规矩,假设世尊没有亲自以足迹踏入圣地城市,那么派遣圣者迦旃延到那里,就成了世尊亲自的事业,是事业传记中伟大的一个部分,因此在此处记载。第三十六个故事是,屋主火生子的诞生:有一次,世尊住在王舍城,那里有一个名叫拉桑的屋主,非常富有,特别信仰裸体外道。当时,世尊去那家乞食,屋主的妻子怀有身孕,世尊预言说:‘她会生一个男孩,家族会因此而兴旺。他将享受天人的财富,并在我的教法中出家,证得阿罗汉。’说完,用最好的食物装满钵,然后乞食完毕。世尊离开后,那些裸体外道心想:‘我们的施主被乔达摩引诱了。’于是前去询问,屋主如实相告。裸体外道们用石头占卜,得知预言属实,但他们心想:‘如果说这是真实的预言,这些人就会更加信仰沙门乔达摩。’于是他们说:‘生男孩,家族兴旺,这确实是真的,因为兴旺是火,所以孩子出生后不久,房子就会被火烧毁。享受天人的财富是不真实的,因为人不可能享受天人的财富。出家是真的,因为他会因为没有食物而被迫出家。成为阿罗汉是不真实的,即使乔达摩自己也不是阿罗汉,更何况他的弟子呢?’之后,屋主拉桑非常不高兴,给妻子服用了堕胎药,但因为这个生命是最后有者,所以不仅没有受到伤害,反而更加健康。母亲的腹部被拳头击打,胎儿也在左右躲避。妇女发出哀嚎,邻居询问后得知要生孩子了。

A mother can travel fifty yojanas, and a messenger named Crow can travel twenty yojanas in a day. Thus, for the moment, according to the rules of the Hearer Vehicle, assuming that the Blessed One did not personally tread with his feet in the noble city, then sending the noble Katyayana there would become the actual deed of the Blessed One, and it is a great part of the activity biography, therefore it is recorded here. The thirty-sixth story is the birth of the householder Fire-born: Once, the Blessed One was staying in Rajagriha, where there was a householder named Rab-zang, who was very wealthy and particularly devoted to the naked heretics. At that time, the Teacher went to that house for alms, and to the wife of that householder, who was pregnant, the Teacher prophesied: 'She will give birth to a son, and the family will prosper. He will experience the wealth of gods and humans, and will renounce in my teaching and attain Arhatship.' Then, he filled the bowl with the best food and offered alms. When the Teacher departed, the naked ones thought, 'Our patron has been seduced by Gautama,' so they went and asked, and the householder told them as before. The naked ones took stones and calculated, and knew it was true, but they thought, 'If we say this is a true prophecy, these people will have more faith in the ascetic Gautama,' so they said, 'Giving birth to a son and making the family clear is true, because clear is fire, so the house will be burned by fire not long after birth. Experiencing the wealth of gods and humans is not true, because humans cannot experience the wealth of gods. Renunciation is true, because he will have no food and will be forced to renounce. Becoming an Arhat is not true, for even Gautama himself is not an Arhat, let alone his disciples.' Then the householder Rab-zang became unhappy and gave his wife medicine to destroy the womb, but because that being was the last existence, it not only did no harm but benefited and grew. The mother's abdomen was massaged with fists, and the fetus fled from side to side. When the woman cried out in pain, the neighbors asked and learned that she was giving birth.

做了。然后,因为担心别人察觉,就悄悄地跑到偏僻的森林里,过度挤压那个女人的腰部,导致那个女人自己死了。把尸体带回家,说“拉桑的妻子死了”,然后又送到寒林墓地。在那里,裸体者们高兴地说:“现在乔达摩的预言没有应验啊!”。那时,世尊面露微笑,从口中放出光芒,做了两种事业,然后融入自己的面容中。询问原因,(佛)说:“今天必须去墓地,比丘们,穿上法衣!”这样说着,世尊被成百上千的天人和人围绕着,前往寒林墓地。在路上,一个婆罗门少年和一个刹帝利少年正在交谈。婆罗门少年说:“乔达摩的预言没有变成假的吧?”刹帝利说:“即使星星和星座的大群从地上掉下来,这片土地连同山、平原和森林一起升到空中,大海的水干涸,大仙也不会说谎。”然后,他们两个也走到导师面前,那个刹帝利少年特意说了一个偈颂。听到导师去了墓地,国王具象心髓也带着眷属来到了那里。世尊坐在座位上,面露微笑,裸体者们看到后,叫着家主拉桑说:“倒霉的家伙,你还没死啊!”然后,那个家主焚烧妻子的尸体,其他地方都烧着了,但是腹部附近很久都没有烧着。不久,那里裂开,出现一朵巨大的莲花,莲花的花蕊里有一个俊美的少年。在那里,人们感到惊奇,裸体者们垂头丧气地坐着。导师对家主说:“抱起那个年轻人!”那人看着裸体者的脸,裸体者说:“你自己会被烧着的!”所以没有抱。导师命令耆婆童子(梵文:Jīvaka Komārabhṛtya)说:“耆婆童子,抱起那个年轻人!”他毫不犹豫地走进火中抱起那个年轻人,火没有造成任何伤害,就像旃檀胜地一样。

It was done. Then, fearing that others would notice, he secretly went to a secluded forest and excessively squeezed the woman's waist, causing the woman to die herself. He took the corpse home and said, "Ra-bzang's wife is dead," and then sent it to the Cool Grove cemetery again. There, the naked ones rejoiced, saying, "Now Gautama's prophecy has not come true!" At that time, the Blessed One smiled, emitted rays of light from the door of his mouth, performed two acts, and then dissolved into his own face. When asked the reason, (the Buddha) said, "Today you must go to the cemetery, monks, put on your robes!" Saying this, the Blessed One, surrounded by hundreds of thousands of gods and humans, went to the Cool Grove cemetery. On the way, a Brahmin boy and a Kshatriya boy were talking. The Brahmin boy said, "Gautama's prophecy has not become false, has it?" The Kshatriya said, "Even if the great host of stars and constellations fell to the earth, this earth, together with its mountains, plains, and forests, could rise into the sky, and the water of the great ocean could dry up, but the great sage would not lie." Then, the two of them also went to the Teacher, and that Kshatriya boy deliberately spoke a verse. Hearing that the Teacher had gone to the cemetery, King Embodied Essence also came there with his retinue. The Blessed One sat on the seat and smiled. The naked ones saw this and called out to the householder Ra-bzang, saying, "You unlucky fellow, you're not dead yet!" Then, that householder cremated his wife's corpse. Everything else was burning, but the area around the abdomen had not been burning for a long time. Soon, it cracked open, and a huge lotus flower appeared, and in the heart of the lotus flower was a handsome boy. There, people were amazed, and the naked ones sat with their heads bowed. The Teacher said to the householder, "Pick up that young man!" That man looked at the faces of the naked ones, and the naked ones said, "You yourself will be burned!" So he did not pick him up. The Teacher commanded Jivaka Komarabhrica, saying, "Jivaka, pick up that young man!" Without hesitation, he went into the fire and picked up the young man, and the fire did not cause any harm, just like sandalwood.

感受到了像接触到凉爽之物一样,前所未有的快乐的触感。之后,对户主说:“把孩子抱来。”那人就看着裸体者的脸。裸体者们说:“如果抱走这个孩子,家就会烧毁,你自己也会丧命。”因此那人没有抱走。之后,导师(释迦牟尼佛)对具形心(国王名)说:“把这个孩子抱来。”国王就抱走了,并取名为火生。当时,世尊为聚集的众多人说法,几乎所有人都被安置在从阿罗汉到入流果的果位之间。之后,不生(火生)被托付给八个乳母,在国王的王宫中养育长大。在其他时候,火生的舅舅从其他地方返回,详细听说了以前的事情后,威胁说:“你抛弃了孩子,现在抱回来还好。如果不抱回来,从今以后就不算亲戚,也会断绝婚姻关系,还会宣扬你杀了我妹妹的事情,也会禀告国王,处以重罚。”那人非常害怕,就去国王具形心那里,请求说:“请您把这个孩子给我吧。”国王也禀告了佛陀,导师也应允了。于是,年轻人用各种装饰品打扮,骑上大象,送到了父亲的家中。之后,过了很久,善护去世后,火生成为了户主,那时他体验到了天人的财富。第三十七,在燃烧的洞穴中为诸天说法:之后,世尊为了将帝释天及其八万眷属安置于真谛,就在光明园中隐身,前往王舍城南方的婆罗门村庄芒果林北面,身依山王(山名)的岩洞,进入火界三摩地。当时,帝释天及其八万眷属,以及善宿摩等天女,还有朋友乾闼婆王五髻及其众多眷属也一同来到身依山。仔细观看时,无法忍受从佛身发出的火焰的光芒,无法靠近。帝释天和五髻商议

He experienced a touch of bliss like touching something cool, a touch he had never experienced before. Then, he was told, "Bring the child here." He looked at the face of the naked ascetic. The naked ascetics said, "If you take this child, your house will burn down, and you yourself will lose your life." Therefore, he did not take the child. Then, the Teacher (Shakyamuni Buddha) commanded to Embodied Heart (a king's name), "Bring this child here." The king took him and named him Fire-born. At that time, the Blessed One taught the Dharma to the many people gathered there, placing almost all of them in positions ranging from Arhat to Stream-enterer. Then, Fire-born was entrusted to eight wet nurses and raised in the king's palace. At another time, Fire-born's uncle returned from another land and, having heard the details of what had happened, threatened, "It is good that you abandoned the child, now take him back. If you do not take him back, from now on we will not consider you a relative, we will also break off the marriage, and we will also proclaim that you killed my sister. We will also report to the king and impose a severe penalty." He was very frightened and went to King Embodied Heart, requesting, "Please give me this child." The king also reported to the Buddha, and the Teacher also granted permission. Then, the young man was adorned with all kinds of ornaments, mounted on an elephant, and sent to his father's house. After a long time, Good Protector died, and Fire-born became the householder, at which time he experienced the wealth of the gods. Thirty-seventh, teaching the Dharma to the gods in the burning cave: Then, the Blessed One, wishing to establish Indra and his eighty thousand attendants in the truth, became invisible in the Light Garden and went to the rock cave of the Lord of the Mountain Body (a mountain name), north of the mango grove in the Brahmin village south of Rajagriha, and entered the fire element samadhi. At that time, Indra and his eighty thousand great divine powers, as well as the goddesses such as Sukhasogama, and his friend, the Gandharva king Five-Crests, along with his many attendants, also came to the Mountain Body. When they looked closely, they could not bear the brilliance of the flames emanating from the Buddha's body and could not approach. Indra and Five-Crests discussed

第五个拉普达,五百个乐神一起拿起毗琉璃琵琶,用诗歌的旋律祈请并劝请诸神说法。然后,世尊从禅定中起身,加持帝释天的岩洞,使所有诸神都能安坐其中。帝释天及其眷属来到那里,顶礼佛足,以无量的供品供养。期间,与天王帝释天多次问答,帝释天欢喜地说:在天界和人世间,没有人和您相比。伟大的勇士,我向您顶礼。殊胜者,我向您敬礼。等等赞颂。之后,导师说法,使帝释天为首的八万天神生起了无尘无垢的法眼。在那个地方,坐在那个座位上,仅仅在证悟真谛的瞬间,帝释天就去世了。去世后,立即又在同一个地方转生为帝释天。如此去世和转生,就像眨眼和消失一样,在接触的瞬间就能领悟,除了帝释天自己和德索玛之外,其他诸神都不知道。之后,那些天神和乐神皈依了佛,如实地受持了五戒,用头顶礼世尊的足三次,绕佛三次,然后面向前方,向后退去,当世尊不在视线范围内时,再次顶礼,然后消失了。第三十八个是孤独的施主被安置在真理中:当时,在舍卫城,孤独的施主已经完成了自己六个儿子的家。为了给第七个儿子列谢娶妻并建立家庭,他带着一百头雪山的牦牛,一百匹马,一百件金饰,一百辆骡车,一百名托噶地方的女子作为聘礼。为了迎娶国王色坚宁布送给萨尔嘉作为礼物的雪域一百头大象等一些需求,他来到了王舍城,在岳父的家里过夜。第二天早上,那位施主看到了佛陀的

The fifth Rapuda, together with five hundred Gandharvas, took up a beryl lute and requested and urged the gods to teach the Dharma with a metered melody. Then, the Blessed One arose from Samadhi and blessed Indra's cave so that all the gods could sit there. Indra and his retinue came there, prostrated at the feet of the Buddha, and offered immeasurable offerings. In the meantime, he had many questions and answers with the Lord of the Gods, Indra. Pleased, Indra said: In the world of gods and humans, there is no one like you. Great hero, I bow to you. Supreme being, I salute you. And so on. Then, when the Teacher preached the Dharma, eighty thousand gods, led by Indra, the chief of the gods, developed the Dharma eye, which is free from dust and defilement. In that place, while sitting on that seat, only at the moment of seeing the truth, Indra passed away. Immediately after passing away, he was reborn as Indra in the same place. Such passing away and being born is realized in the moment of contact, like blinking and disappearing. It is unknown to the other gods besides Indra himself and De Sogma. Then, those gods and Gandharvas went for refuge and took the five precepts properly. They bowed their heads to the feet of the Blessed One three times, circumambulated three times, and then faced forward and retreated. When the Blessed One was out of sight, they bowed again and disappeared. The thirty-eighth is that the lonely benefactor is placed in the truth: At that time, in Shravasti, the householder Lonely Benefactor had finished building the houses for his six sons. In order to marry a wife for his seventh son, Legshe, and establish a family, he brought one hundred snow mountain yaks, one hundred horses, one hundred gold ornaments, one hundred mule carts, and one hundred girls from Tokhar as the bride price. In order to receive one hundred snow elephants that King Sekshen Ningpo sent to Salgyal as a gift, and for some other needs, he came to Rajagriha and stayed overnight at the house of the bride's father. The next morning, that householder saw the Buddha's
