是菩萨慈氏。如是说。又,过去有个像狮子一样的王宫。那里有个国王名叫狮子鬃毛,财富兴盛,如法治理国政。那个王宫里,有个名叫狮子的船长,他的财富能与多闻天王媲美。他娶了同种姓的女子为妻,生下了世尊,名叫童子辛伽拉,相貌英俊,令人喜爱。他长大后,学习文字,精通八种观察等。因此,他被安排在冬天、春天和夏天的各个房间里。还安排了上、中、下三种等级的妻子住所。在那里,他在顶层的豪宅里,没有男子,只有音乐的爱抚。在另一个时候,他对父亲说,请允许我进入大海。父亲说:儿子,我有很多财富,像芝麻和稻米一样使用,我的享受也不会减少或耗尽。只要我还活着,你就尽情玩乐吧。我死后,你再去积攒财富。他多次请求允许进入大海。父亲知道他一定会被恶鬼吞噬,被时间摧毁,就对儿子说:就这样做吧。你要忍受那些恐惧。于是,他宣布与五百名商人一同出海。在那里,他还带着五个靠体力劳动为生的人,包括使劲划桨的人、大游泳者和携带风帆的人等,开始进入大海。由于不知道能否顺利渡过大海,他们在船上准备了游泳的装备,如海泡石板、棉枕木、船夫的船和游泳者等。当他们登上船后,水族动物摧毁了船只。每个人都各自骑着海泡石板和游泳者等,凭借它们的力量,从北方被风吹到南方海岸。在铜岛上,有个名叫鹤女的罗刹女,那里有个岛屿,以喜悦的方式守护着那些船只失事的商人。那里被称为与胜利的喜悦之地相符,与贫困之地相符。

He is the Bodhisattva Maitreya. Thus it is said. Furthermore, in the past, there was a royal palace like a lion. There was a king named Lion's Mane, whose wealth flourished and who ruled the kingdom according to Dharma. In that palace, there was a captain named Lion, whose wealth rivaled that of Vaishravana. He took a wife from the same lineage, and the Blessed One was born as their son, named the boy Simhala, who was handsome and pleasing to behold. When he grew up, he learned to read and became proficient in the eight kinds of examination, and so on. Therefore, he was assigned to separate houses for winter, spring, and summer. He also arranged three kinds of residences for his wives: superior, middling, and inferior. There, in the upper mansion, without any men, he was cherished with music. At another time, he said to his father, "Please allow me to enter the great ocean." The father said, "Son, I have many kinds of wealth, and even if you use them like sesame seeds and rice, my enjoyment will not diminish or be exhausted. As long as I am alive, enjoy yourself and be happy. After I die, then go and accumulate wealth." He repeatedly asked for permission to enter the ocean. Knowing that he would inevitably be devoured by demons and destroyed by time, the father said to his son, "Do as you wish. Endure those fears." Then, he announced that he would set sail with five hundred merchants. There, he also took along five people who lived by physical labor, including those who rowed vigorously, great swimmers, and those who carried sails, and began to enter the great ocean. Since they did not know whether they would cross the great ocean safely or not, they prepared swimming equipment on a ship, such as pumice stones, cotton pillows, a boatman's vessel, and swimmers. When they boarded the ship, aquatic creatures destroyed the ship. Each of them rode on pumice stones and swimmers, and by their power, they were driven by the wind from the north to the southern shore. On the Copper Island, there was a Rakshasi named Crane Maiden, and there was an island that guarded the shipwrecked merchants in a joyful manner. It was called a place that corresponded to the joy of victory and a place that corresponded to poverty.

有两个,当与喜悦之处相符的旗帜开始摇动时,那些罗刹女说道:从这个预兆来看,赡部洲的商人们必定会船毁无疑。说完,她们便来到海边,看到商人们正在游泳过来,于是她们显现出美丽的形象,用各种衣饰打扮自己,说道:像天神一样善良的人们,请到这边来。我们这些没有家室的人,需要一个家室和保护者。这些是你们的食物、饮料、衣服、住所和花园等等,还有赡部洲的珍宝,如宝珠、珍珠、吠琉璃等等,直到右旋海螺。请和我们一起享受嬉戏和欢乐吧!即使你们有些人喝得酩酊大醉,也不要走到南方去。她们这样说完,男人们便对女人的形象产生了爱慕和迷恋,没有其他痛苦和束缚。罗刹女们说完,便从海里出来,和他们一起嬉戏玩乐,甚至生了儿子和女儿。当时,辛伽罗的船长心想,为什么这些女人如此严守南方的道路呢?于是,他和哪个女人同睡,等她睡着后,便悄悄地从大床上下来,把锋利的剑藏在腋下,向南方走去。在那里,他听到许多人发出哀嚎的声音,说:唉!父母和儿子,以及使赡部洲快乐的人们,都抛弃了我们。他听了,顿时感到害怕,不敢说话,停在那里。过了一会儿,他消除了恐惧,继续沿着那条路走去。途中,他看到一座巨大的铁城,高大而宽广,他想那里是否有一些小窗户,便四处寻找,却连猫能进入的孔洞也找不到。在那座铁城的北面,有一棵巨大的尸利沙树,高大而宽广,他爬到树上观看,对铁房子里的人群说道:你们为什么这样哀嚎呢?他们回答说:我们是赡部洲的商人,乘船出海,船被水族

There were two, and when the banner that matched the place of joy began to wave, those Rakshasa women said: From this omen, the merchants of Jambudvipa will surely have their ships destroyed. Having said this, they went to the seashore and saw the merchants swimming over. Then they manifested beautiful forms, adorned themselves with various garments and ornaments, and said: O good people like gods, please come here. We who have no families need a family and a protector. These are your food, drink, clothes, dwellings, gardens, and so on, as well as the jewels of Jambudvipa, such as gems, pearls, and vaidurya, up to the right-spiraling conch shell. Please enjoy playing and rejoicing with us! Even if some of you become very drunk, do not go to the southern path. Having said this, the men became fond of and infatuated with the forms of the women, and there was no other suffering or bondage. The Rakshasa women, having said this, came out of the sea and played and rejoiced with them, and even had sons and daughters. At that time, the captain of Sinhala thought, why are these women so careful to guard the southern path? So, he slept with whichever woman, and when she fell asleep, he quietly got down from the big bed, hid a sharp sword under his arm, and went to the south. There, he heard many people making sounds of wailing, saying: Alas! Parents and sons, and those who make Jambudvipa happy, have abandoned us. Having heard this, he was immediately frightened and did not speak, and stopped there. After a while, he dispelled his fear and continued along that path. On the way, he saw a huge iron city, tall and wide, and he wondered if there were any small windows there, so he searched around, but he could not find even a hole that a cat could enter. To the north of that iron city, there was a huge Shirisha tree, tall and wide, and he climbed up the tree and looked, and said to the crowd of people inside the iron house: Why are you wailing like this? They replied: We are merchants of Jambudvipa, who set sail on the sea, and our ships were destroyed by aquatic creatures.

当船只损毁时,他们抓住木板和木筏等物渡海。在铜洲居住的罗刹女们显现出美丽的形象,用甜言蜜语诱惑他们,与他们成家,并生儿育女。一旦其他的赡部洲商人乘船到来,那些罗刹女们抓到他们后,便会吃掉我们中的一些人,甚至连头发、体毛和指甲等残余都不放过,全部吃掉,甚至连一滴血滴落的地方,也要用手指刮起来吃掉。我们是她们的残余,被囚禁在这铁城之中。船长听后说道:有智慧的人们,你们难道不知道有什么方法可以让我们平安地逃离到赡部洲吗?他们回答说:有智慧的人们,我们没有办法。如果想要逃跑,无论从这座铁城的上面还是下面逃跑,都会成倍地增长。你们有逃脱的方法。因为天神们在这里上方游荡,他们这样说:‘喂,赡部洲的年轻商人们,在这个月的十五斋戒日,向北方前进。那里有一匹名叫云力马的马王,它吃着未经耕种的稻谷,无病无痛,快乐而充满力量,感官满足,挺直身躯,会三次询问:谁要到彼岸去?谁要受到尊敬?谁能幸福安乐地到达赡部洲?’你们到它那里去,说:‘我们要到彼岸去,请让我们平安地到达赡部洲。’它就会帮助你们到达彼岸。我们是听说了这些。那些话船长都记在心里。然后慢慢地回到自己的住处,悄悄地躺在那女人睡着的地方。第二天早上,辛伽罗的船长早早地起来,到那些商人那里去,说:有智慧的人们,来那个僻静的花园,我有些秘密的话要对你们说,除了你们,即使喝得烂醉,也要带着孩子一起来。’就这样,商人们聚集在僻静的地方,船长详细地讲述了事情的经过,这个罗刹女

When ships were wrecked, they crossed by holding onto planks and rafts. The assemblies of Rakshasa women dwelling in this Copper Isle showed beautiful forms, deceived them with pleasing words, made them their families, and even had sons and daughters. As soon as other merchants from Jambudvipa arrived by ship, when those Rakshasa women found them, they ate whatever they could of us, eating even their hair, body hair, nails, etc., without leaving even a little bit, and even the place where a drop of blood fell, they would scrape it up with their fingers and eat it. We are the leftovers of those, imprisoned in this iron city,' they said. The captain then said, 'Wise ones, do you not know of any means for you and us to escape safely to Jambudvipa?' They said, 'Wise ones, there is no means for us. If we think of escaping, no matter whether we flee from above or below this iron city, they will multiply two or three times. You have a means of escape. Because the gods wander above here, they say this: 'Hey, young merchants of Jambudvipa, on the fifteenth fasting day of this month, go north. There, a horse king named Cloud Strength, having eaten the uncultivated rice grains, is without sickness, happy, full of strength, with satisfied senses, straightening his upper body, will say three times: Who will go to the other shore? Who will be honored? Who will happily and well go to Jambudvipa?' Go to him and say, 'We will go to the other shore. Please let us safely go to Jambudvipa.' He will help you reach the other shore.' We have heard these things.' The captain kept those words in mind. Then slowly he returned to his own dwelling, and quietly lay down where the woman was sleeping. The next morning, the captain of Sinhala got up early, went to those many merchants, and said, 'Wise ones, come to that secluded garden, I have some secret words to say to you, and even if you are very drunk, bring the boys and girls and come.' Just like that, the merchants gathered in the secluded place, and the captain discussed in detail what had happened, this Rakshasa woman.

为了从其中解脱,约定十五日进入北方之路。在那里,十五日那天,他们全都进入北方之路而去,看见马王吃着不耕种的果实。看见后,商人们开始向它祈祷。船长辛伽拉说:据我所知,民众所说的事情,现在时机尚未成熟。马王吃着谷物,安乐且充满力量,所以会特意说“谁去彼岸”等等,那时我们才应该祈祷。之后,马王吃着萨鲁的果实,挺直腰杆,宣告“谁去彼岸”时,所有商人都走到马王面前,合掌敬礼,说:我们去彼岸。请带我们去彼岸。请让我们平安顺利地到达赡部洲。当时,马王说:有智慧的人们,那些女子会变成美丽动人,带着自己的孩子,这样说:俊美的先生们,请过来。成为我们的家庭和财富的守护者。这些是你们的食物、衣服、住所、花园、森林、令人愉悦的池塘,以及赡部洲的珍宝,如珠宝、珍珠、琉璃、白色珍珠贝、珊瑚、黄金、白银、宝石的精华、绿松石、红色宝石和右旋海螺,请过来。和我们一起玩乐,享受快乐和喜悦。如果你们不为我们所动,暂时带着你们各自的儿女离开吧。你们会这样想:我的妻子、儿子或女儿,从食物的地方到右旋海螺都是我的,这样想的人,即使已经骑在我的背上,也会像成熟的果实从树梢掉落一样,那些女子会来吃掉他们,吃得一干二净,甚至连血滴的地方也会用手指刮干净。

In order to be liberated from that, it was decided to enter the northern path on the fifteenth day. There, on the fifteenth day, they all entered the northern path and went, and saw the horse king eating uncultivated fruits. Seeing this, the merchants began to pray to it. The captain Sinhala said: As far as I understand the meaning of what the people are saying, the time has not yet come. The horse king eats grain and is comfortable and full of strength, so he deliberately says things like "Who goes to the other shore?" It is at that time that we should pray. Then, when the horse king ate the salu fruit, straightened his back, and proclaimed, "Who goes to the other shore?" all the merchants went to the horse king, bowed with folded hands, and said: We are going to the other shore. Please take us to the other shore. Please let us reach Jambudvipa safely and happily. At that time, the horse king said: Wise ones, those women will transform into beautiful and attractive forms, carrying their own sons and daughters, and say this: Handsome gentlemen, please come here. Be our household and guardians of our wealth. These are your places for food and drink, places for clothes, dwellings, pleasure gardens, forests, delightful ponds, and the jewels of Jambudvipa, such as jewels, pearls, vaidurya, white pearl shells, coral, gold, silver, the essence of stones, turquoise, red gems, and right-spiraling conch shells, please come here. Play and enjoy happiness and joy with us. If you do not care for us, then for a while, take your own sons and daughters and leave. You will think to yourselves: My wife, son, or daughter, from the place of food to the right-spiraling conch shell, are mine. Those who think this, even if they have already ridden on my back, will fall like ripe fruit falling from the top of a tree, and those women will come and eat them, eating them completely, and even the place where the blood drips will be scraped clean with fingers.
