被称作释迦族人。如此,菩萨观察了五种观察,以从兜率天降生的方式,为了使天神们欢喜,示现了百零八种显现法的门径,从而使天众们进入了正确的佛法道路。之后,(菩萨)说道:“我为了现证圆满菩提,将前往瞻部洲。”那些天神们因与菩萨分离的痛苦所折磨,抓住(菩萨)的脚,带着哭喊和哀叹祈请道:“您若不在此居住,兜率天之处将变得空虚,谁来宣讲佛法呢?”菩萨慈氏回答道:“弥勒菩萨将为你们宣讲佛法。”说完,将自己的头饰戴在弥勒怙主的头上,并授权其为代理者。天神们再次说道:“如今瞻部洲被六个外道和十八种邪见所扰乱,现在不是您观察的时机啊!”(菩萨)赐予回答道:“太阳的光芒能够像其他光芒一样压倒它们。”之后,时机成熟时,(菩萨)问天神们:“我应当如何进入母亲的子宫呢?”他们回答说:“以梵天、帝释天、日月、童子、迦楼罗等形象进入是合适的。”但这些都偏向一方。天子光荣殊胜不退转者说道:“在婆罗门的吠陀中说:‘殊胜的大象,身躯巨大无比,具有六颗牙齿,覆盖着金色的网,头部非常红润且极其美丽,脸颊流淌着液体,具有美好的形象。’按照其中所说的幻化而去是合适的。”(菩萨)考虑按照所祈请的那样进入。之后,入胎之行为:那时,在净饭王的家中,大地像手掌一样平坦,没有灰尘,没有生物,鲜花盛开等出现了八种吉祥的征兆。在那里,善于治理国家的国王的女儿,成为净饭王的王妃的摩耶夫人,或摩耶天女,涂着香,佩戴着装饰品,被成千上万的妇女围绕着,坐在净饭王演奏音乐的华丽宫殿中的宝座上,为了谨慎地遵守八支斋戒和十善法,向净饭王请求允许,

He was known as a member of the Shakya clan. Thus, the Bodhisattva, having contemplated the five contemplations, manifested one hundred and eight doors of Dharma appearance to delight the gods by means of transferring and entering from Tushita, thereby establishing the assembly of gods on the correct path of Dharma. Then, he said, "I will go to Jambudvipa in order to attain complete and perfect enlightenment." Those gods, tormented by the suffering of separation from the Bodhisattva, grasped his feet and, with lamentations and cries, pleaded, "If you do not reside here, this place of Tushita will become empty, and who will teach the Dharma?" The Bodhisattva Maitreya replied, "Maitreya Bodhisattva will teach the Dharma to you." Having said this, he placed his own headdress on the head of Maitreya, the protector, and empowered him as regent. Again, the gods said, "Now Jambudvipa is being corrupted by six heretics and eighteen wrong views, so it is not the time for your observation!" He granted the reply, "The light of the sun is able to overwhelm other lights in the same way." Then, when the time came, he asked the gods, "How should I enter the womb of my mother?" They replied, "It is appropriate to enter with the appearance of Brahma, Indra, the sun and moon, a boy, Garuda, and so forth." But these were biased. The son of the gods, glorious and irreversible, said, "In the Vedas of the Brahmins it says: 'The noble elephant, with a great and supreme body, possessing six tusks, covered with a golden net, its head exceedingly red and extremely beautiful, its cheeks dripping, possessing a beautiful form.' It is appropriate to emanate and go forth as described therein." The Bodhisattva considered entering as requested. Then, the act of entering the womb: At that time, in the house of King Shuddhodana, the ground was as level as the palm of a hand, free from dust, without living creatures, and eight auspicious signs appeared, such as flowers blooming. There, the daughter of the king who governed well, who became the queen of King Shuddhodana, Maya, or Maya the beautiful goddess, anointed with perfume, adorned with ornaments, surrounded by ten thousand women, sat on a fine throne in the magnificent palace of King Shuddhodana's music, and in order to be mindful of the eight-limbed precepts and the ten virtues, she requested permission from King Shuddhodana,

前往迦毗罗卫,在珍宝宝座上铺设床垫,放下顶髻上的宝珠而坐。关于入胎,正如所说:金色网完美覆盖红色头顶,灰白六牙且极具力量,如海螺、雪山、银色之象王,我觉入我腹中。其入胎后,我的身与心,对于前所未见、未闻、未经历的,以稀有之乐变得极其安乐,如入禅定一般。如是,天众以众多乐器在前引导,当埃达星月的星团,时轮历的仲夏上旬鱼日午夜降临之时,象王以其形相进入了母亲处于斋戒之中的胎中。此胎亦被诸位王子所享用,名为珍宝庄严的宫殿自然显现,加持了三万六千俱胝天人成熟。彼时,母亲做了四个特别的梦,大地六种震动等吉祥之兆遍布各处。关于诞生的事业:在那里怀胎十个月后,关于何时出生,《律经》中,房主给孤独施食问世尊:世尊您于何时出生?世尊答道:房主,我于春季末月出生。如是。此处根据星算,猛烈的铁猴年(公元前624年)春季末月小月萨嘎月(藏历四月)的第七天,降生之时到来。在净饭王的园林中,鲜花等显现出最美妙的青春姿态,出现了三十二种吉祥之兆,母亲知道自己要生产了。考虑到具有特殊的必要,与无数眷属一同前往蓝毗尼园。为了顺利生产,母亲伸出右手,抓住了巴拉喀树的树枝。从右肋出生,母亲安然无恙,具备十种生相,诞生之时,魔众惊恐万分,触之生乐的光芒照亮了一切。那时,梵天和帝释天用迦尸迦的细布接住,粉碎了他们的傲慢。

Having gone to Kapilavastu, she sat on a jeweled throne with a mattress spread on it, letting down the jewel on her crown. Regarding the entering into the womb, it is as it is said: The golden net perfectly covers the red crown of the head, with six ashen white tusks and greatly endowed with power, like a conch, a snow mountain, a silver-colored elephant king, I feel it has entered my womb. After it entered, my body and mind, for what had never been seen, heard, or experienced before, became extremely blissful with rare bliss, as if in meditative equipoise. Thus, the hosts of gods, with many kinds of musical instruments leading the way, when the constellation of the star moon of Aida, the middle of summer in the Wheel of Time, the midnight of the fish day in the upper reaches of the water, arrived, the elephant king, in its form, entered the womb of the mother who was in retreat. That womb was also enjoyed by the princes, and the palace called Jewel Adornment naturally appeared, blessing thirty-six million kotis of gods and humans to ripen. At that time, the mother had four special dreams, and auspicious signs such as the earth shaking in six ways spread everywhere. Regarding the act of being born: Having stayed in the womb for ten months there, regarding when she was born, in the Vinaya Sutra, the householder Anathapindika asked the Blessed One: Blessed One, in which month were you born? The Blessed One replied: Householder, I was born in the last month of spring. Thus it is. Here, according to the agreement of the planets and stars, the time came for her to be born on the seventh day of the small month of Saga (Tibetan April) in the fierce Iron Monkey year (624 BC), the last month of spring. In the garden of Suddhodana, flowers and so on showed the most wonderful youthful appearance, and thirty-two auspicious signs appeared, so the mother knew she was about to give birth. Considering that there was a special need, she went to Lumbini Garden with countless attendants. In order to give birth easily, the mother stretched out her right hand and grasped the branch of a Palaksha tree. She was born from her right side, the mother unharmed, possessing ten signs of birth, and at the moment of birth, the maras were terrified, and the light of bliss to the touch filled everything. At that time, Brahma and Indra received her with Kashi silk, shattering their pride.

当有人反驳说,如来是从肋骨降生的,说这是子宫的活动,这是一种非常愚蠢的表现。导师大圣说:'子宫张开后有十二天。' 在那个时候,男女之间的交合的想法会进入,虽然进入的地方只是母亲的子宫,但你却认为这是没有的征兆,说他是从肋骨降生的,所以不是从子宫出生的。' 这样说是非常过分的。为了摧毁这些说法,他将自己的身体化为金刚的性质,并展示了无数的神变。天神和龙降下花雨,沐浴佛身。大地也六种震动。所有的树木都开花结果。向四个方向走了七步,发出狮子吼,每一步都生出天神供养的七朵莲花,天神们也赞叹不已。当时,有五百个像喜悦和善财这样的贤人,五万个释迦族的子民,八百个像渴望这样的臣民,一万个像名闻这样的释迦族女儿,八百个像渴望女这样的女仆,两万个王族、婆罗门和居士的女儿,两万匹像骏马赞这样的良马,一万头象王,六千头母牛也产下了幼崽。在大陆的中央,还出现了五百个菩提树苗圃,因此,净饭王宣称一切目的都已实现,并给王子取名为乔达摩·悉达多(一切义成)。当时,据说四个边境小国也生了儿子,分别是:摩揭陀国王舍城的莲花大王之子有意义,拘萨罗或舍卫城的肋骨突出的施予国王之子光明王,圣城或宝石城的无边轮国王之子极光,憍赏弥的百军王之子东方。他们各自都出现了光芒,认为这是自己儿子的征兆,并以此命名。当他们问相师这个年轻人怎么样时,相师预言说:'如果他住在宫殿里,他将成为转轮王;如果他离开家出家,他将证得圆满菩提。'

When someone refutes that the Tathagata was born from the ribs, saying that this is the activity of the womb, it is a very foolish expression. The teacher, the great sage, said, 'After the womb opens, there are twelve days.' At that time, the thought of the union of male and female will enter, although the place of entry is only the mother's womb, but you think that this is a sign of absence, saying that he was born from the ribs, so he was not born from the womb.' To say this is very excessive. In order to destroy these claims, he transformed his body into the nature of a vajra and displayed countless miracles. Gods and nagas rained down flowers and bathed the Buddha's body. The earth also shook in six ways. All the trees blossomed and bore fruit. He took seven steps in four directions, roared like a lion, and seven lotuses offered by the gods grew at each step, and the gods also praised him. At that time, there were five hundred virtuous people like Joy and Sudhana, fifty thousand Shakya people, eight hundred subjects like Desire, ten thousand Shakya daughters like Fame, eight hundred maidservants like Desire Woman, twenty thousand daughters of royal families, Brahmins, and householders, twenty thousand excellent horses like Excellent Steed Praise, one thousand elephant kings, and six thousand cows also gave birth to calves. In the center of the continent, there also appeared five hundred Bodhi tree nurseries, therefore, King Suddhodana declared that all purposes had been achieved and named the prince Gautama Siddhartha (All Purposes Achieved). At that time, it was said that four border states also had sons born, namely: the son of King Padma the Great of the city of Rajagriha in Magadha, Meaningful; the son of King Rib Prominence Given of Kosala or Shravasti, Light King; the son of King Boundless Circumference of the Holy City or Jewel City, Utmost Light; and the son of King Hundred Armies of Kaushambi, Eastern. Each of them had rays of light appear, thinking that this was a sign of their own son, and named them accordingly. When they asked the soothsayer what this young man would be like, the soothsayer predicted, 'If he stays in the palace, he will become a Chakravartin; if he leaves home and becomes a renunciate, he will attain perfect enlightenment.'
