说罢。七天之后,聚集了众多的女子。年轻人给她们每人一件装饰品。那些女子也无法忍受年轻人的光彩,迅速地离开了。只有释迦族的娑འཚོ་མ་没有离开,她能忍受年轻人的光彩,并且还交谈了。年轻人摘下了价值百千金的戒指,送给了娑འཚོ་མ་。之后,守卫向国王禀告说:年轻人对娑འཚོ་མ་一见倾心,还稍微交谈了几句。国王派使者去释迦拉格纳贝坚那里求亲。释迦拉格纳贝坚说:那个年轻人是在王宫里快乐长大的,而我的族人只会把女儿嫁给懂艺术的人,不会嫁给其他人。年轻人答应参加艺术比赛。国王非常高兴。之后,在七天之内,在整个城市里宣布要举行艺术比赛。释迦族的五百多位精通艺术的年轻人都聚集起来,把娑འཚོ་མ་作为胜利的旗帜,约定说:谁在艺术比赛中获胜,就娶她。当时,菩萨乘坐的一头非常巨大的白色大象被带到城市里。提婆达多出于嫉妒和傲慢,拍手杀死了它。美观喜悦将它扔到了城门外。菩萨没有下车,只用一个脚趾就将它捡起,扔到了七重墙和七重壕沟之外一由旬的地方,地面因此凹陷下去,被称为印度象的凹陷。就像这样: 如金刚般行进的象王, 仅用一个脚趾捡起它, 越过七重墙和七重壕沟, 远远地扔到城市之外。 此外,还请来了所有老师的朋友和释迦族的执政者作为见证人,比赛文字、算术、跳跃、格斗、赛跑、力量等各种艺术,菩萨都获得了胜利。特别是在比赛弓箭的结合时,喜悦射了两由旬,提婆达多射了四由旬。

Having said that, after seven days, a large gathering of girls assembled. The young man gave each of them an ornament. Those girls, unable to bear the young man's splendor, quickly departed. Only Shakya Sa'tsho Ma did not leave; she could bear the young man's splendor and even conversed with him. The young man took off a ring worth a hundred thousand gold coins and gave it to Sa'tsho Ma. Afterward, the guard reported to the king: "The young man has fallen in love with Sa'tsho Ma and has even had a brief conversation with her." Upon hearing this, the father-king sent a messenger to Shakya Lagnabechen to ask for his daughter's hand in marriage. Shakya Lagnabechen said: "That young man was born and raised happily in the palace. My clan only gives daughters to those who know art, not to others." The young man agreed to compete in the arts. The father-king was very pleased. Then, within seven days, it was proclaimed throughout the city that an art competition would be held. More than five hundred Shakya youths who were highly skilled in the arts gathered, and Sa'tsho Ma was placed as the victory banner, with the agreement that whoever won the art competition would take her. At that time, a very large white elephant, which was the Bodhisattva's mount, was led into the city. Out of jealousy and arrogance, Devadatta clapped his hands and killed it. Beauty Delight threw it away from the city gate. The Bodhisattva, without dismounting from his chariot, picked it up with one toe and threw it beyond seven walls and seven moats, a distance of one Yojana, causing the ground to become a depression, which is known as the Elephant Depression of India. It is like this: The elephant king who walks like a vajra, Having picked it up with one toe, Having completely crossed seven walls and seven moats, He threw it far outside that city. Furthermore, the friends of all the teachers and the rulers of the Shakyas were placed as witnesses. By competing in various arts such as writing, arithmetic, jumping, wrestling, racing, and strength, the Bodhisattva became supreme. Especially when competing in the combination of archery, Delight shot two yojanas, and Devadatta shot four yojanas.

六位美貌的嬉女。手持金刚杵,在两俱卢舍之外,各竖立一个铁锅作为靶子。各自击中了自己的靶子,没有击中超过这个距离的靶子。菩萨自己,从金刚杵的靶场之外十由旬的地方,竖立一个铁锅,七棵多罗树,一个铁野猪的形象。从寺庙里拿起狮子嘴边的箭,箭杆一半露在外面。用一根手指拉弓,射出的箭穿透了所有的靶子。箭射入地下后涌出水,被称为箭水井。像这样,在六十四种技艺等等所有方面,只有菩萨最为卓越。释迦金刚杵者将自己的女儿地生女献给了菩萨。菩萨从八万四千妃嫔中选出地生女,并为她灌顶。菩萨自己与妃嫔们一同嬉戏。直到二十九岁,都沉浸在欢乐之中。第六是决定出离,即出家的行为。那时,菩萨虽然没有超过时限,但十方诸佛和菩萨的劝请是法性。因此,他们以加持的乐器发出的声音所产生的偈颂来劝请: 见到充满百般痛苦的有情众生后, 成为众生的怙主、救护和归宿, 成为利益者、殊胜者和亲友。 你过去曾发下这样的誓愿。 善良的勇士,忆念起往昔的行为, 忆念起利益众生的誓愿。 现在是你的时机和时刻, 正直的殊胜者,请显现出离。 像这样,受到许多偈颂的劝请。三十二位天子也劝请他。之后,当他前往城市外面散步时,由于他的威力,净居天的天子们幻化出这些景象:东门是衰老的痛苦,南门是生病的痛苦,西门是被死亡折磨的痛苦,北门是寂静调柔的比丘等等比丘的法衣。

Six beautiful playful women. Holding vajras, each erected an iron pot as a target two krosas away. Each hit their own target, not hitting beyond that distance. The Bodhisattva himself, from a distance of ten yojanas beyond the vajra target range, erected one iron pot, seven tala trees, and an image of an iron wild boar. From the temple, he took an arrow from the lion's mouth, with half the shaft remaining outside. Drawing the bow with one finger, the arrow shot through all the targets. After the arrow sank into the ground, water gushed out, and it was called the Arrow Water Well. Thus, in all aspects of the sixty-four arts and so on, only the Bodhisattva was particularly outstanding. Shakya Vajrapani offered his daughter Earth-born Girl to the Bodhisattva. The Bodhisattva chose Earth-born Girl from among eighty-four thousand consorts and consecrated her. The Bodhisattva himself played with the consorts. Until the age of twenty-nine, he indulged in joy. Sixth is the determination to renounce, that is, the act of ordination. At that time, although the Bodhisattva did not exceed the time, it was the nature of the Dharma that the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the ten directions urged him. Therefore, they urged him with these verses arising from the sound of blessed musical instruments: Having seen sentient beings filled with hundreds of sufferings, Become the protector, refuge, and abode of beings, Become the benefactor, the supreme one, and the friend. You made such a vow in the past. Virtuous hero, remember your past deeds, Remember the vow to benefit beings. This is your time and moment, Upright supreme one, manifest renunciation. Like this, he was urged by many verses. Thirty-two sons of gods also urged him. Then, when he went for a walk outside the city, by his power, the sons of the Pure Abode gods conjured up these sights: the east gate was the suffering of old age, the south gate was the suffering of sickness, the west gate was the suffering tormented by death, and the north gate was a peaceful and subdued bhikshu and so on, the Dharma robes of a bhikshu.

Due to seeing something with qualities, wanting to renounce from household life, thinking that the father king would not allow it, he then pleaded to the father king, saying: O deity, I know that the time for my manifestation has come. Please do not create obstacles, nor be displeased. O king, please be patient with your relatives and your kingdom. After pleading in this way, the king, with tears filling his eyes, said to the Bodhisattva: Why do you want to renounce? Tell me what you desire in your heart, and I will grant it. After saying this, the Bodhisattva pleaded to his father: O deity, I desire four supreme boons, please grant them to me. If you can grant them, then you are my refuge. However, please always watch over me in the household and do not let me renounce. O deity, I desire not to be overcome by old age, to always maintain a beautiful appearance, to remain forever young, to obtain freedom from illness, not to be afflicted by disease, to be without harm, and not to suffer decline. After requesting this, the king was very distressed and said: I do not have the power to grant you such impossible things. After saying this, the Bodhisattva pleaded again: O deity, if you cannot grant these four supreme boons, then please listen to my request for another supreme boon. Please ensure that after I die from here, there will be no more rebirths. After saying this, the father king was very heartbroken and promised: May all your wishes be fulfilled. After giving this promise, the Bodhisattva himself returned to his own residence. Afterwards, the king also told these things to the Shakya people. The Shakya people discussed and said: This person should be guarded by an army. Thus, at each of the four gates of the city, five hundred Shakya youths were stationed, each equipped with five hundred chariots, and each chariot equipped with five hundred soldiers. The elders of the Shakya clan also stationed themselves at the crossroads and intersections of the roads, and King Shuddhodana himself also patrolled. The groups of consorts also tried to entice the Bodhisattva's mind with sensual pleasures such as songs, dances, and music.

被...迷醉了。然后菩萨自己上了楼顶,向所有佛陀顶礼观看。看见帝释天、四大天王和日月双星也在顶礼,还看见星宿之主也在半夜升起。于是对车匿说:“给我马。”车匿问:“您要去哪里?”回答说:“要出家。”车匿多次劝阻,说了许多欲望的过患,但没有劝住。车匿说:“时机未到。”菩萨说:“为了寻找众生的利益,获得无老死的菩提之位,我长久以来发愿度化众生,现在时机已到。”说完,帝释天打开了城门。车匿给马穿戴好装饰,献上后菩萨骑上。四大天王抬着马,升到空中,梵天和帝释天指路,光明照亮黑暗,带着各种供品。在清净的佛塔前,自己剪断了头发,自然获得了圆满的近圆戒。当时心想如果能找到一件符合出家仪式的衣服就好了。于是净居天的天人化作猎人的形象,献上了袈裟。菩萨也将迦尸迦的衣服给了他,他接过衣服顶在头上,为了供养而去了天界。车匿带着马和装饰返回,向国王、王妃的所有眷属以及释迦族的所有人说了消除悲伤的话。第七是苦行的事业:对于长寿仙人和胜行二者,示现了无所有和有顶天的禅定,为了驳倒那些以恶戒为清净的外道,前往尼连禅河边,安住于虚空遍满的等持中。依靠一粒芝麻、一粒榧子和一粒米,苦行了六年,断绝了呼吸。在此期间,还使十二那由他百千的天人于三乘中成熟。第八是前往菩提树降魔的事业,是村女善生女。

Was intoxicated by... Then, the Bodhisattva himself went to the top of the house and prostrated to all the Buddhas and looked. He saw Indra, the Four Great Kings, and the two luminaries, the sun and moon, also prostrating. He also saw the lord of the stars rising at midnight. Then he said to Chandaka, "Give me the horse." Chandaka asked, "Where are you going?" He replied, "I am going forth." Chandaka dissuaded him many times, speaking of the many faults of desire, but he did not dissuade him. Chandaka said, "It is not the time." The Bodhisattva said, "In order to seek the benefit of sentient beings, having obtained the state of Bodhi without old age and death, I have long vowed to liberate beings, and now the time has come." Having said this, Indra opened the gate. Chandaka adorned the horse with ornaments and offered it, and the Bodhisattva rode it. The Four Great Kings lifted the horse and went into the sky, and Brahma and Indra showed the way. The light illuminated the darkness, and with various offerings, in front of the pure stupa, he himself cut off his hair and naturally attained the complete ordination. At that time, he thought, 'If only I could find a robe that conforms to the monastic custom.' Then, a god from the Pure Abode transformed into the form of a hunter and offered a saffron robe. The Bodhisattva also gave the robes of Kashi to him, and he took the robes, placed them on his head, and went to the heavenly realm for the sake of offering. Chandaka brought the horse and ornaments back and spoke words of solace to all the retinue of the king and queen and all the Shakya clan. The seventh act is the act of practicing austerities: To the two sages, Long Flyer and Superior Practice, he manifested the meditations of Nothingness and the Peak of Existence. In order to refute the non-Buddhists who hold to purification through bad vows, he went to the bank of the Nairanjana River and remained in the samadhi of all-pervading space. Relying on one sesame seed, one jujube seed, and one grain of rice, he practiced austerities for six years, cutting off the flow of breath. In the meantime, he also matured twelve nayutas of hundreds of thousands of gods and humans in the three vehicles. The eighth act is the act of going to the Bodhi Tree, is the village girl Well-born.
