因您身具巨大福德的光辉而无法忍受,全都倒下,说道:‘沙门乔达摩,欢迎您来临!’以此安慰之语,五比丘的戒律自然瓦解。世尊说,不要用接近如来、应供、正等觉等名号的词语来称呼我。五比丘说:‘那么,您获得甘露了吗?’世尊回答说:‘我已获得殊胜甘露,看看我的身光和光辉。’他们请求说:‘那么,请将甘露分给我们吧!’世尊答应了他们的请求。在那一年的夏初月(藏历四月)初四,在波罗奈斯,世尊坐在千佛转法轮的自然形成的宝座上,为最初的五位弟子,即贤善者,从吉祥的喉咙中取出,从海螺般的牙齿间取出,从神通的舌头上展开,用梵天的声音清楚地阐述了四圣谛的法轮。其自性是:‘这是痛苦。这是集。这是道。这是灭。’其作用是:‘应知痛苦。应断集。应证灭。应修道。’其结果是:‘痛苦已知,无需再知;集已断,无需再断;灭已证,无需再证;道已修,无需再修。’如此反复十二次,五比丘获得了阿罗汉果位,八千万天人见到了真谛。之后,世尊引导近侍五比丘等无量无边的应化众生走向解脱之道和果位。世尊曾前往王舍城、灵鹫山等地,以及无垢、名闻、圆满、牛主、善手等地,为四众弟子等,以及天龙夜叉人类等具有大乘种姓的无量众生,宣讲甚深且无相的法门。世尊还曾前往不固定的一处,如舍卫城、楞伽布里、光明园林等地,为各种根性的应化众生,宣讲了最后决定的意义,即善巧区分的法轮。

Unable to bear the radiance of your great merit, all fell down and said, 'Ascetic Gautama, welcome!'. With these comforting words, the discipline of the five monks naturally dissolved. The Blessed One said, 'Do not address me with words close to Tathagata, Arhat, Perfectly Enlightened One.' The five monks said, 'Then, have you attained the nectar?' The Blessed One replied, 'I have attained the supreme nectar, look at the light and radiance of my body.' They requested, 'Then, please give us a share of the nectar!' The Blessed One agreed to their request. On the fourth day of the early summer month (Tibetan fourth month) of that year, in Varanasi, the Blessed One sat on the naturally formed throne where a thousand Buddhas had turned the wheel of Dharma, and for the first five disciples, the virtuous ones, he took it from the auspicious throat, extracted it from between the conch-like teeth, unfurled it from the miraculous tongue, and with the voice of Brahma, clearly expounded the wheel of Dharma of the Four Noble Truths. Its nature is: 'This is suffering. This is the origin. This is the path. This is cessation.' Its function is: 'Suffering should be known. The origin should be abandoned. Cessation should be realized. The path should be cultivated.' Its result is: 'Suffering is known, there is no need to know it again; the origin is abandoned, there is no need to abandon it again; cessation is realized, there is no need to realize it again; the path is cultivated, there is no need to cultivate it again.' Thus, revolving it twelve times, the five monks attained the state of Arhat, and eighty million gods saw the truth. Thereafter, the Blessed One led the attendant five monks and countless beings to be tamed to the path and the fruit. The Blessed One went to places like Rajagriha, Vulture Peak, and places like Immaculate, Fame, Fullness, Lord of Cattle, Good Hand, and for the four assemblies of disciples and countless beings such as gods, nagas, yakshas, and humans of the Great Vehicle lineage, he taught the profound and signless aspects of Dharma. The Blessed One also went to places not fixed in one location, such as Shravasti, Lanka Puri, and the Grove of Light, and for the various beings to be tamed, he taught the final definitive meaning, the wheel of Dharma of skillful distinctions.

以方便的方式使大小乘种姓的无量众生成熟,即转法轮的事业。12 从那以后,暂时适合的,从五贤部到遍行自在之间的所化众生,以实际调伏的事业圆满后,为了使懈怠者受到鞭策,使贪欲者决定出离,使常执者致力于谨慎,如来在八十岁时,铁龙年萨嘎月的月圆之日,前往巨力士的国土城市拘尸那迦,在双娑罗树林中做了最后的卧榻。大地震动,天降花雨,天人和人类的众多供养云集,显现了不可思议的神变。如薪尽火灭般,示现了入灭之相。阿难陀等按照转轮王的仪轨,用柔软的棉布缠绕身体,放入装满酥油的铁箱中,用旃檀木焚烧,但火焰没有燃起。之后,从自己的心间自然生起智慧之火,燃烧了七天。舍利从摩揭陀出现十二卡车,分成八份,降落在舍卫城等城市。圣体的遗骨也为众生做了广大的利益。这些都是完全入灭的事业。如此,殊胜能仁的事业,即使是十地菩萨也无法思议。然而,十二相在数量上,是广为人知的教言和论典中所说的。像孩子穿孩子的衣服一样,用少许的词句,为了适应末世的新生之人。如果能很好地理解这些,当智慧增长时,就去看能满足心意的广大论典。无论谁以无烦恼的心,以虔诚的心接受善逝,经典中说,这样的人背离恶趣,获得老死灭尽的境界。因此,像我这样的下劣者讲述这些,是为了讲述善逝的功德。写下这些不可能没有结果,愿一切善根都成为大菩提之因!这篇也是关于增长的甚深之类。

In a convenient way, he matured the infinite beings of the Greater and Lesser Vehicle lineages, namely, the activity of turning the Wheel of Dharma. 12 After that, for a while, those who were suitable, from the Five Excellent Ones to the Wanderers, after the activity of actually subduing them was completed, in order to spur on the lazy, to make the desirous determined to renounce, and to make the clinging to permanence diligent, the Thus-Gone One, at the age of eighty, on the full moon day of the Saga month in the Iron Dragon year, went to the city of Kushinagar in the land of the Mallas, and made his final resting place in the grove of twin Sala trees. The earth shook, a rain of flowers fell, and numerous offerings from gods and humans gathered, displaying inconceivable miracles. Like a fire whose fuel is exhausted, he showed the manner of passing into complete nirvana. Ananda and others, according to the rites for a universal monarch, wrapped his body in soft cotton cloth, placed him in an iron casket filled with clarified butter, and burned him with sandalwood, but the fire did not ignite. Then, from his own heart, a fire of wisdom arose spontaneously and burned for seven days. Twelve cartloads of relics appeared from Magadha, divided into eight parts, and descended on cities such as Shravasti. The relics of the holy body also performed great benefit for many beings. These are all the activities of passing into complete nirvana. Thus, the activities of the Supreme Sage, even the noble ones of the ten bhumis cannot conceive of. However, the twelve aspects in number are spoken of in the widely known teachings and treatises. Like a child's clothes for a child, with few words, in order to suit the new beings of the degenerate age. If one can understand these well, when wisdom increases, then look at the vast treatises that satisfy the mind. Whoever with a mind free from afflictions, with a mind of faith, accepts the Sugata, the sutras say that such a person turns away from the lower realms and attains the state of exhaustion of old age and death. Therefore, I, a lowly one, speak of this, in order to speak of the qualities of the Sugata. It is impossible for writing this to be without result, may whatever merit there is become a cause for great enlightenment! This is also of the profound kind of increase.

名为具名青年慧幢者,暂时对于尚未完全成年的新学童子,最初降临于勤奋修习之因,为了成为圣者所造广大章节之集合,心中所持恐惧的所依,卑微者于林中居住的功德贤陀罗,从边地园林何处书写敬献,愿成为如大海般广闻功德之自在圣者。萨尔瓦达卡拉雅巴瓦图(藏文:སརྦ་དཱ་ཀ་ལྱཱ་བྷ་བ་ཏུ,梵文天城体:सर्वदा कल्याण भवतु,梵文罗马拟音:sarvadā kalyāṇa bhavatu,汉语字面意思:愿一切时吉祥)。善哉!善哉!善哉!

Named the youth with marks, Wisdom Banner. For the time being, for the newly learning young child who has not yet fully matured, due to the initial descent into diligent practice, in order to become the support for the fear held in the heart of the vast collection of chapters composed by the holy ones, the humble Guṇabhadra, dwelling in the forest, having written and offered it from wherever the remote garden is, may he become a holy lord of the qualities of vast learning, like an ocean. Sarvadā kalyāṇa bhavatu (Tibetan: སརྦ་དཱ་ཀ་ལྱཱ་བྷ་བ་ཏུ, Sanskrit Devanagari: सर्वदा कल्याण भवतु, Sanskrit Romanization: sarvadā kalyāṇa bhavatu, Literal Chinese meaning: May there be auspiciousness at all times). Good! Good! Good!
