在那里，国王得知菩萨具有苦行的功德，心想：‘看来我也不明白他之前所说的话。’于是对菩萨说：‘你没有放下的，如此动摇不定，对你造成损害的，那是什么人？就像下雨遮盖了微尘一样，你究竟平息了什么？’菩萨说：‘出生时善不显现，不出生时善才显现。对我造成损害的嗔怒，我没有让它溜走。’等等，说了嗔怒的过患，触动了国王的心，于是忏悔了自己的过错，也向那位出家的女子请求宽恕，然后放她走了，自己也发誓做菩萨的仆人。像这样，如果能制伏嗔怒和怀恨，就能制伏敌人。如果嗔怒增长，敌人也会增长。要知道，没有嗔怒和贪欲之刺的人，才能以无垢的禅定之心安住。༈ 另外，以前世尊自己转世为遍行者菩提时，在家期间，精通世人称赞的各种学问和技艺。后来出家时，以利益他人的精进，特别学习了各种佛法，获得了导师的地位。无论走到哪里，都受到智者、国王、婆罗门、居士、外道以及所有出家人的尊敬。那位大士也为了利益他人而四处游走。他去到一个国王的领地附近。那位国王从很远的地方就听说了这位菩萨的功德名声，所以在自己的花园一角为他安排了住处，并给予尊敬。菩萨也为他们宣讲佛法。那些嫉妒他的功德和名声的人，为了让国王不喜欢菩萨，就用计谋说：‘这位遍行者菩提，是个狡猾的人，用温和的手段来掩盖自己的真实意图。他一定是被日下的某个国王派来的间谍。’这个人拥有佛法的本质，知

There, the king realized that the Bodhisattva possessed the virtues of asceticism, and thought, 'It seems I didn't understand what he said before.' So he said to the Bodhisattva: 'What is it that you have not given up, that is so wavering, and who is it that harms you? Just as rain covers dust, what have you thoroughly pacified?' The Bodhisattva said, 'When born, virtue is not manifest, and when not born, virtue is manifest. That anger that harms me, I have not let it escape.' And so on, speaking of the faults of anger, which struck the king's heart, so he confessed his faults and also asked forgiveness from that ordained woman, and then let her go, and he himself vowed to be a servant of the Bodhisattva. Thus, if anger and resentment are subdued, then enemies will be subdued. If anger increases, enemies will also increase. It should be known that those without the thorns of anger and attachment will be able to abide with a mind of stainless contemplation. ༈ Furthermore, in the past, when the Blessed One himself was transformed into a wandering Bodhi, when he was living at home, he was skilled in various arts and sciences praised by the world. Later, when he became ordained, he especially studied the doctrines of the Dharma with diligence to benefit others, and attained the position of a teacher. Wherever he went, he was revered by scholars, kings, Brahmins, householders, heretics, and all the ordained. That great being also wandered everywhere to benefit others. He went near the territory of a certain king. That king had heard the fame of the virtues of that Bodhisattva from afar, so he made a place for him in one part of his garden and treated him with respect. The Bodhisattva also taught them the Dharma. Those who were jealous of his virtues and fame, in order to make the king dislike the Bodhisattva, schemed and said: 'This wandering Bodhi is a cunning man who uses gentle means to conceal his true intentions. He must have been sent as a spy by a certain king under the sun.' This person possesses the essence of Dharma, knowing

说：“用谄媚使人高兴，用方法来降低别人的身份并欺骗。”国王也稍微有些不相信，看到对他慈爱和尊敬减少了，知道国王不高兴了。于是拿着遍行者的用具，三叉杖和钵等，准备离开。国王暂时显出驯服的样子，说：“我冒犯了什么，你要离开？”菩提萨埵说：“我不是因为无意义地死去，也不是因为尊敬减少而生气。国王你没有成为佛法的容器，充满欺骗，我要从这里离开。”当时国王牵着一条大狗来，那狗愤怒地露出牙齿。菩提萨埵说：“大国王，这条狗以前对我亲近，现在却露出牙齿愤怒，这些畜生也显示了你的意图，我从你那里听到的不尊敬的话，难道不是它也听到了吗？这也是跟随你的眷属啊！”说完，国王感到羞愧，低下头想：‘这个人很聪明，会知道的，我要欺骗他。’说：“我当着大众的面和你争论，这是真的。因为有需要，我忘记了。请您宽恕，不要离开！”菩提萨埵说：“现在是离开的时候了。在尊敬减少的时候，如果我自己不走，以后也可能会被赶走。我不是不高兴才走的，以后也不会舍弃有益的慈爱。对所做的不感恩，友谊不坚定，是人中最差劲的。因此，为了守护这份友谊的结局，我暂时告辞了。”国王说：“如果你不能不走，为了让我再次见到你，请您来这里，用慈眼眷顾，不应该因为种族而怀恨在心。”菩提萨埵说：“大国王，这个世间存在有很多障碍，不能肯定地说一定会来。如果我有来的机会，我会看你的面容。”说完，表示尊敬后离开了。他知道依靠在家之人会感到不快乐，于是在一个寺庙的地方努力禅修。

He said, "He pleases with flattery, and uses methods to demean and deceive." The king, also somewhat disbelieving, saw that his affection and respect for him had diminished, and knowing that the king was displeased, he took the implements of a wandering ascetic, a three-pronged staff and a bowl, and prepared to leave. The king, for a moment showing a subdued demeanor, said, "What offense have I committed that you are preparing to leave?" The Bodhisattva said, "I am not angry because of dying without purpose, nor because of diminished respect. King, you have not become a vessel for the Dharma, and being full of deceit, I shall depart from here." Then the king led a large dog that he had brought, which, being angry, showed its fangs. The Bodhisattva said, "Great King, this dog used to be familiar with me, but now, showing its fangs and being angry, even these animals show your intention. Have I not heard disrespectful words from you through it? This too is a follower of your retinue!" Having said this, the king, ashamed and with his head lowered, thought, 'This one is clever and will know; I shall deceive him.' He said, "It is true that I argued with you in the assembly. Because of necessity, I forgot. Please forgive me and do not depart!" The Bodhisattva said, "Now is the time to leave. If I do not leave myself when respect diminishes, I may be driven away later. I am not leaving unhappily, nor will I abandon the beneficial love that has been shown. To be ungrateful for what has been done, and to have unstable friendship, is the worst among people. Therefore, in order to preserve the end of this friendship, I shall take my leave for a while." The king said, "If you cannot but leave, come here so that I may see you again, and look upon me with kind eyes. It is not right to hold a grudge because of lineage." The Bodhisattva said, "Great King, this world is full of obstacles, so I cannot promise that I will definitely come. But if I have the opportunity to come, I will look upon your face." Having said this, he showed respect and departed. Knowing that relying on householders would bring unhappiness, he diligently meditated in a secluded place in a monastery.

在尚未获得稳固地位之前，便获得了四禅定和五神通。因为怜悯那位国王，所以观察他如何处境。但他的大臣们无法忍受探究原因，便说没有原因。莲花的茎有叶子、花朵等，以及颜色、形状、触感等的原因。鸟的翅膀有各种图案的原因是什么呢？他们认为万物是自然产生的。还有些人认为是自在天创造的。有些人只追求今生的快乐。由于大臣们各自怀有不同的见解，导致国王误入歧途。国王听信他人，几乎要堕入邪见的深渊。因为怜悯他，所以想方设法阻止他。他从自己的苦行处幻化出一只大猴子，用神通剥下猴子的皮。为了不引人注意，他穿上猴皮，来到国王的宫殿门口。宫殿门口驻守着手持武器的卫兵，里面依次坐着家眷、婆罗门和大臣，国王则坐在里面的狮子座上。国王迎接了他，以礼相待，并用甜言蜜语请他坐在铺设好的座位上。国王问道：尊者，这猴皮是谁献上的？菩萨回答说：这是我自己找到的，不是别人献上的。因为在地上铺设吉祥草来修行，无法进行宗教仪式，所以我看到这只大猴子在那片森林里。我心想，如果我用它的皮作为修法的用具，无论是坐着还是躺着，都能成就佛法，于是我杀了那只猴子，剥下了它的皮。国王表现出温顺和顺从的样子，一言不发，羞愧地低下了头。那些大臣们原本就对菩萨怀有不满，现在抓住了机会，笑着对国王说：哎呀！看看这个人对佛法的喜爱吧！明明住在苦行林里，竟然独自杀死这么大的猴子，真是太稀奇了！祝你苦行圆满！菩萨没有生气，说道：你们自己

Before attaining a firm footing, he had acquired the four meditations and five supernormal knowledges. Out of compassion for that king, he observed how he was doing. But his ministers could not bear to investigate the cause, so they said there was no cause. The lotus stalk has causes such as leaves, flowers, etc., and colors, shapes, tactile sensations, etc. What is the cause of the various patterns on a bird's wings? They thought that things arose naturally. Some also thought that it was created by Ishvara. Some only pursued the happiness of this life. Because the ministers each held different views, they led the king astray. The king, listening to others, was about to fall into the abyss of wrong views. Out of compassion for him, he thought of a way to stop him. He conjured up a large monkey from his place of asceticism, and magically skinned the monkey. In order not to attract attention, he put on the monkey skin and went to the gate of the king's palace. At the palace gate, a crowd of people holding weapons were stationed, and inside, family members, Brahmins, and ministers were seated in order, and the king was sitting on a lion throne inside. The king greeted him, treated him with respect, and with sweet words invited him to sit on the prepared seat. The king asked: Venerable one, who offered this monkey skin? The Bodhisattva replied: I found it myself, no one offered it. Because practicing religion on the ground covered with kusha grass is not effective for religious ceremonies, I saw this big monkey in that forest. I thought, if I take its skin as a tool for practicing Dharma, whether sitting or lying down, I can accomplish the Dharma, so I killed that monkey and skinned it. The king assumed a gentle and obedient manner, and without saying a word, lowered his head in shame. Those ministers, who had previously been intolerant of the Bodhisattva, now seized the opportunity, smiled, and said to the king: Alas! Look at this person's love for the Dharma! Living in the ascetic forest, he actually killed such a big monkey alone, it's really amazing! May your asceticism be accomplished! The Bodhisattva, without getting angry, said: You yourselves

不看好的观点而责备我，是不应该的。如果用与自己观点相悖的话语伤害他人，那自己就会被认为是不明智的。说完，斥责了认为没有原因的大臣，说道：众生是自然而然产生的，如果没有原因，为什么要责备我呢？猴子自然而然地死去，我怎么会有罪呢？如果我有罪，那就是由原因产生的。因此，应该抛弃这种说没有原因的说法，说这种话对你来说是不应该的。莲花的茎等如果没有原因而产生，为什么不总是没有原因地产生呢？因此，如果水和种子等存在，就会生长，如果不存在，就不会生长，因此要知道它是有原因的。另外，如果说没有原因就没有成立的理由，那就是自己承认了，自己推翻了自己。如果没有任何理由就能成立没有原因，那么仅仅通过承诺就能成立，这是不可能的，所以仅仅承诺没有原因没有任何用处。如果有些人仅仅因为没有看到那个原因的因缘，就说一切都没有原因，那是不应该的。明明亲眼看到有些事物是有原因的，怎么能说与此相悖的话呢？如果在任何时间、任何地点都没有看到有原因，那么怎么能确定地说那个原因不存在，或者说出理由呢？这只是空话，没有道理。如果说仅仅是没有看到，那么太阳落山后，即使太阳的中心存在，也会因为其他因缘而看不到，难道也认为不存在吗？此外，你们既想要快乐，又不想要痛苦，为了快乐而侍奉国王，却总是说没有原因，这怎么说得过去呢？如果确实没有原因，那么我杀了猴子又有什么可责备的呢？这样使说没有原因的人无言以对，然后召来了说自在天是原因的人，说道：有寿命的人啊，你们不应该责备我。如果你认为一切都是自在天所为，那么猴子也是自在天杀的，我有什么可不高兴的呢？为什么要将别人的罪过归于我呢？如果说那只猴子不是自在天因为怜悯而杀的，那么众生的原因怎么会是自在天呢？

It is not appropriate to blame me without considering good views. If one harms others with words that contradict one's own views, then one will be considered unwise. Having said this, he rebuked the minister who believed in no cause, saying: If beings arise naturally and without cause, why do you blame me? If a monkey dies naturally, how can I be guilty? If I am guilty, then it must be caused by something. Therefore, it is appropriate to abandon this talk of no cause, and it is not appropriate for you to say such things. If lotus stems and the like arise without cause, why do they not always arise without cause? Therefore, if water and seeds and the like exist, they grow, and if they do not exist, they do not grow, so know that they have a cause. Furthermore, if one says that there is no reason for proving no cause, then one contradicts oneself by one's own assertion. If no cause is established without any reason, then it would be established merely by making a claim, which is impossible, so merely claiming no cause is of no benefit. If some people say that everything is without cause merely because they have not seen the cause of that cause, it is not appropriate, for how can one speak contrary to what one clearly sees, that some things have a cause? If one has not seen a cause anywhere or at any time, how can one be certain that the cause does not exist, or how can one state a reason? It is just words without reason. If one says that it is merely that one has not seen it, then when the sun sets, even though the orb of the sun exists, it becomes invisible due to other causes, do you also think that it does not exist? Furthermore, you desire happiness and do not desire suffering, and while relying on the king for happiness, how can you always say that there is no cause? If there is definitely no cause, then why is there any blame for my killing the monkey? Thus, he silenced those who spoke of no cause, and then summoned those who said that Ishvara (自在天) was the cause, saying: O long-lived ones, you should not blame me, for if you believe that everything is done by Ishvara, then the monkey was also killed by Ishvara, so why should I be displeasing? Why do you attribute the faults of others to me? If you say that the monkey was not killed by Ishvara out of compassion, then how can Ishvara be the cause of beings?
