There are also those who can endure. As it says in the Treasury of Knowledge: "Abiding is a kalpa." And in the Sutra Requested by the Dragon King of the Sea: "I have resided in this place in the sea for one intermediate kalpa." As it is said in the Letter to a Friend: "Even in the realm of animals, there is killing, binding, beating, and various sufferings. Those who do not desire happiness, devour each other in extreme horror. Some die for the sake of pearls, wool, bones, blood, flesh, and skin. Without freedom, driven by others, they are beaten and forced to work with feet, hands, whips, hooks, and so on." This means that even in the animal realm, there are various sufferings such as being killed, bound, and beaten. Those who do not wish for happiness devour each other, which is extremely terrible. Some die for the sake of pearls, wool, bones, blood, flesh, and skin. Without freedom, driven by others, they are beaten and forced to work with feet, hands, whips, hooks, and so on. The second is to advise diligence in practicing the Dharma. The method is: Thinking about these things, in order to be liberated from the animal world, in order to accomplish benefit and happiness, establish the good path of manifest high status and definite goodness, and diligently engage in virtue day and night. This teaches that in order to be liberated from the evil realms of animals, those who desire liberation should diligently practice the ten virtues, the four concentrations, and the four formless absorptions, which are the cause of the vast accumulation of merit for temporarily attaining the state of gods and humans, as well as the practice of the grounds and paths such as the six perfections, which are the cause of the vast accumulation of merit and wisdom for ultimately attaining liberation, which have emptiness and great compassion as their essence. Explaining the sufferings of humans is divided into ten aspects, the first is the aspect of being tormented by the eight sufferings: Now, even those who have attained the state of heaven do not have a time of happiness, because there are sorrow, displeasure, and strife, etc. Before one suffering is relieved, another suffering comes. There are also changes caused by eating food mixed with poison, and diseases caused by improper diet, clothing, and behavior, etc. These all symbolize that the suffering of future lives is the suffering of conditioned existence. Suffering itself has three types, namely the suffering of suffering, the suffering of change, and the suffering of conditioned existence. There are also birth, old age, sickness, death, meeting with enemies and the unpleasant, separation from loved ones, not getting what one wants, and near

以取受的五蕴持续执持痛苦,八种方式以轮回的方式受苦。其中,第一种痛苦的痛苦是叠加发生的,比如父亲去世后母亲也去世。转变的痛苦是现在看似快乐,但实际上是痛苦的,比如迎娶新娘的地方房子倒塌,或者吃了掺有毒药的食物。行苦是吃了毒药,或者因为饮食、衣着和行为不当,后来引发疾病,或者对大根造成损害,后来产生报复,比如《律藏》中说:轮回是痛苦的蕴,痛苦是痛苦的行,转变本身,通过这三种八种方式,人们非常痛苦。第二是出生的痛苦。出生的痛苦,以前世的成分居多。比如,中阴身中游荡的寻香靠近,进入母亲的子宫时,无明、意识、风、心、明点聚集。像水银一样柔软,像鼻涕一样粘稠,像手指一样弯曲,像鸡蛋一样坚硬,像莲花花瓣一样圆润,像遍入天的鱼一样,像乌龟一样。逐渐在七个星期内形成的身体,母亲因疲劳、饥渴、寒热等,即使是稍微一点也承受着无法估量的痛苦。黑暗狭窄,令人恐惧,气味难闻,蜷缩的痛苦难以忍受。从第七周到第二十六周,感官、肢体、毛发等形成。第三十六周时,身体的营养得到滋养和增长,并开始活动。之后,在骨骼的束缚中,业力的风推动着头尾颠倒。如同被死亡威胁的痛苦聚集摧毁一般。出生后,如同触摸时皮肤被剥掉一样,又像洗澡后用剃刀刮肉一样。从父母的结合中,白红明点混合的管道中,意识进入。第一个七天,像水银一样流动。第二个七天,像鼻涕一样粘稠。第三个七天,像手指一样弯曲。第四个七天,变得坚硬如鸡蛋。第五个七天,像莲花花瓣一样圆润。第六个七天,像遍入天的鱼一样。第七个七天,像乌龟一样,例如头和手脚稍微突出

就像青蛙的形状一样。从那以后,到二十六个星期时,身体的肢体、手指、眼睛等感官及其所依,以及汗毛、头发、内部的脏腑、脉、气、精微的精华、血、血清、男女的生殖器等生殖器官都清晰地形成。从那以后,到三十六个星期时,身体的营养得到增强,母亲吃下的食物的精华和饮品的精华成为胎儿的食物。有时因为胎儿的摇动和跳动,母亲的身体也不舒服。在那期间,胎儿会感受到身处黑暗之中、狭窄且令人作呕的感觉、蜷缩的痛苦、吃不饱或吃太饱时感觉像被山和大海压住一样、疲劳,以及剧烈运动时像被抛入悬崖般的痛苦。而且,男孩们从母亲的右侧乳房面向内,用两只手掌遮住脸部而住着,女孩们则从左侧向外看着住着。之后,业力的风使头尾颠倒,在骨骼的轮转中挤压,生产就像是合拢摧毁地狱的痛苦一样。之后,刚一接触就如同剥皮一般,洗澡时就像用剃刀切割肉块一样,有着无法估量的痛苦。详细的内容可以参考《入胎经》。这些道理在《教诲书》中说:极其难忍的恶臭不洁被挤压而阻塞,住在极其狭窄的黑暗之中,进入如同胎狱般的里面,全身蜷缩必须忍受巨大的痛苦。那就像逐渐地用坚硬的芝麻油挤压一样,像被挤压一样,之后又会如何出生呢?然而,即使那样也不会舍弃生命,因为已经习惯了痛苦的各种形态。住在不洁之中,身体在胎内翻滚,被胎内的湿气包裹,具有难忍的恶臭。折磨带来的损害不断增长,就像伤口成熟破裂一样,像要呕吐一样,抛弃了之前的记忆。如是说。第三个是衰老的痛苦。从那以后,逐渐地,衰老的痛苦极其难以忍受,青春衰退,一切的

It is like the shape of a frog. From then until twenty-six weeks, the limbs of the body, fingers, eyes, and other senses along with their supports, as well as body hair, head hair, the internal organs, veins, wind, subtle essences, blood, serum, and the reproductive organs of male and female, all the sources of generation are clearly formed. From then until thirty-six weeks, the body's nourishment is strengthened, with the essence of the food eaten by the mother and the essence of the drinks serving as the food and drink for the fetus. Sometimes, the mother also feels unwell due to the fetus's movements and pulsations. During that time, the fetus experiences being in darkness, a narrow and nauseating sensation, the suffering of being cramped, and the feeling of being crushed by mountains and oceans when not full or too full, as well as fatigue and the suffering of being thrown into an abyss when moving vigorously. Moreover, boys reside facing inward from the mother's right breast, covering their faces with the palms of their hands, while girls reside facing outward from the left. Then, the wind of karma reverses the head and tail, squeezing within the skeletal structure, and childbirth is like the suffering of the combined crushing hell. Then, immediately upon contact, it is like being skinned, and bathing is like cutting flesh with a razor, with immeasurable suffering. For details, refer to the *Gahao Entering the Womb Sutra*. These principles are stated in the *Instructional Letter*: "Extremely unbearable, foul-smelling, and impure, obstructed by squeezing. Residing in the dense darkness of extreme narrowness. Having entered inside like a hell of the womb, the whole body is cramped, and one must endure great suffering. That is like gradually squeezing with hard sesame oil, like being squeezed, and then how will one be born? However, even so, one does not abandon life, because one has become accustomed to the various forms of suffering. Residing in impurity, the body rolls around in the womb, wrapped in the moisture of the womb, possessing unbearable foul odors. The harm from torment increases, like a wound maturing and breaking open. Like being about to vomit, one abandons previous memories." Thus it is said. The third is the suffering of aging. From then on, gradually, the suffering of aging is extremely unbearable, youth declines, and all

令人不悦。上下难支,拄着拐杖;身体的温度下降,食物也难以消化;体力衰退,行动困难;想去的地方去不了,关节也变形;感官衰退,视力模糊,看不见东西;听不见声音,闻不到气味,感觉不到触觉;记忆力减退,沉浸在愚痴的睡眠中;对世俗的享受失去兴趣,能力也变小;食物等美味也变得难以下咽;寿命减少,对死亡感到恐惧,意识混乱;像孩子一样,忍耐力小,无法忍受;像油尽灯灭一样,迅速衰老。也就是说,青春逝去,身体的力量衰退,关节变形,食物难以消化,感官衰退,视力模糊,听力下降,舌头僵硬,记忆力减退,以前喜欢的世俗事物和食物等也不再令人愉快。舌头的感官衰退,无法品尝到年轻时的食物的味道。害怕死亡而焦虑,像孩子一样忍耐力小等等,痛苦无法估量。在《学书》中说:那时,死神衰老的魔爪,以无法摧毁的手段抓住你,白发丛生,牙齿脱落,像在嘲笑一样从整体上抓住你。那时,他的关节分离,智慧也变得迟钝,行动能力衰退,身体也变得弯曲僵硬,罪恶肯定会增加。感官也逐渐衰退,即使对事物有欲望,能力也会下降。无论暂时要去哪里,如果在地狱里,那将是可怕的。第四是生病的痛苦。此外,生病的痛苦非常难以忍受,身体的自然状态改变,心情不好,对世俗的享受失去兴趣,因为害怕死亡而感到悲伤,无法忍受痛苦而发出呻吟。当受到疾病的折磨时,他的心烦意乱,对任何事物都无法感到快乐,意识混乱,感到愤怒,害怕死亡,有时甚至想死,或者因为濒临死亡而感到恐惧,这种痛苦就像地狱一样。在《业百篇》的注释中,被疾病折磨的身体

Unpleasant. Difficult to support the upper and lower body, relying on a cane; the body's temperature decreases, and food is difficult to digest; physical strength declines, making movement difficult; unable to go where one wants, and joints become deformed; senses decline, vision blurs, unable to see; unable to hear sounds, smell odors, or feel touch; memory fades, immersed in ignorant sleep; interest in worldly pleasures diminishes, and abilities become small; delicious foods and the like also seem unappetizing; lifespan decreases, fear of death arises, and consciousness becomes confused; like a child, endurance is small and unbearable; like an oil-depleted lamp, aging quickly. That is to say, youth passes, the body's strength declines, joints deform, food is difficult to digest, senses decline, vision blurs, hearing diminishes, the tongue becomes stiff, memory fades, and worldly things and foods that were once enjoyed are no longer pleasant. The sense of taste declines, unable to taste the flavors of food as in youth. Anxious and fearful of death, and like a child, endurance is small, and so on, suffering immeasurable. In the 'Letter of Instruction,' it says: Then, the aging hand of the Lord of Death seizes you with an indestructible method, white hair grows, teeth fall out, grasping you entirely as if mocking. Then, his joints separate, wisdom also becomes dull, the ability to move declines, the body also becomes bent and stiff, and sin will certainly increase. The senses also gradually decline, and even if there is desire for things, the ability diminishes. Wherever one goes temporarily, if it is in hell, it will be terrifying. Fourth is the suffering of sickness. Furthermore, the suffering of sickness is extremely unbearable, the body's natural state changes, and one feels unwell; interest in worldly pleasures diminishes, and sadness arises from fear of death; unable to bear the suffering, one groans. When afflicted by the sensation of illness, one's mind is disturbed, unable to feel joy in anything, consciousness is confused, and one feels anger; fearing death, and sometimes even wishing to die, or fearing being near death, this suffering is like competing with hell. In the commentary on the 'Hundred Deeds,' a body afflicted by illness

如是,地狱的感受就是那样,那样一次又一次地生起,就像贪恋者对存在的刺痛。如是说。第五是死亡的痛苦:寿命已尽,或未尽,但在中阴时,死亡的痛苦非常巨大。在食物、衣服、谈话和床铺的最后时刻躺下,抛弃生命、身体、眷属、亲友和享用。独自无助地离去,感到恐惧。那也是躺在最后的床铺上,与住所、谈话、食物、衣服和此生的所有显现告别。抛弃眷属和享用。无论拥有多少,都无法带走,只能独自前往陌生之地,心中不悦,被剧烈的痛苦感受所折磨而死去,在自己的显现中漂泊,没有保护和救助。尸体被抬到墓地,被食腐动物等吞噬,亲友们悲伤不已,痛苦无法估量。如《劝发增上意乐经》中所说:我为何会这样被死主,用脚踩在头上而不知所措?悲伤的金刚,像那样,像那样,心中被痛苦所折磨,亲友们哭泣,泪流满面,痛苦如同心中的金刚。被痛苦的本性所折磨,如同进入极度可怕的黑暗之中。努力守护的身体,与喜爱和熟悉的事物彻底分离。死主的绳索紧紧捆绑着,即使呼喊哭泣,亲友们也听不见,如同自己的哭声在回响。在难以逾越的河流和巨石之间,在荆棘丛生的危险道路上,被时间的绳索套在脖子上,死主,那些凶猛的人用棍棒驱赶着前进。如是说。第六是与敌人相遇的痛苦:就像这样,与不悦之物相遇的痛苦,被不悦意的伤害和威胁所逼迫。就像这样,与仇敌相遇时,他们会使身体、生命和享用变得不幸。第七是与亲友分离的痛苦:与慈爱和喜爱的事物分离,悲伤、哀嚎,心中不悦。
