大菩萨八大近子的传记宝鬘。弥庞。 大菩萨八大近子的传记宝鬘。弥庞。 大菩萨八大近子的传记宝鬘,如是安住。 向大菩萨、菩萨摩诃萨文殊童子顶礼!供养,皈依!怙主智慧之主,是三世一切佛陀的无分别智慧之身,以菩萨之相,安住于虚空和法界,乃至虚空和法界存在之时。于某些显现中,是功德圆满的佛陀;于某些显现中,是佛子的长子;于某些显现中,是功德未圆满,正在修道的学人;于某些显现中,以平凡之身,通过各种方式,行持一切佛陀和佛子的事业,以及进入无量众生的界,安住于不可思议的解脱之中,即从勇猛行三摩地经中,显示往昔成佛;从以指鬘利益经中,显示如是成佛而住世;从文殊净土功德庄严经中,显示于未来无量劫后,将名为怙主普观而成佛。如是,虽然示现佛陀和菩萨的各种事业,却从未有穷尽和增长,如虚空般的智慧之身,以各种事业与众生的边际平等地相融。如文殊秘密续中所说:我于三世之前出现,于一切佛陀之前出现。我于三世之后亦将出现,我于三世现在亦出现。如是,我乃三世出现之身,一切教法隐没之时,彼时我之教法出现。无论如何寂静,我乃一切寂静之身。无论如何忿怒,一切忿怒皆我之身。如是宣说。因此,文殊童子的某些化现,乃如来之教

M A ṆI MĀ LA NĀ MĀ KṢĀ MA HĀ BHO DHI S TVA PA PU TĀ RTĀ NA PA DĀ NA BI HA RA TI SMA. (Tibetan) Maṇi Māla Nāmākṣāma Mahā Bodhi Sattva Pa Putārtāna Padāna Viharati sma. (Sanskrit Devanagari, Maṇi Māla Nāmākṣāma Mahā Bodhi Sattva Pa Putārtāna Padāna Viharati sma) (Sanskrit Romanization, Jewel, Garland, Named, Forgiveness, Great, Bodhi, Sattva, Of, Son, Benefit, Giving, Action, Dwelling, Past Tense). Thus dwells the Garland of Jewels: A Biography of the Eight Great Close Sons of the Great Bodhisattva. Homage to Mañjuśrī Kumārabhūta, the Great Bodhisattva, the Bodhisattva Mahāsattva! I offer, I take refuge! The Lord, the Master of Wisdom, is the sole embodiment of the non-conceptual wisdom of all Buddhas of the three times. In the form of a Bodhisattva, he abides in the sky and the realm of Dharma as long as the sky and the realm of Dharma exist. In some manifestations, he is a Buddha with complete qualities; in some manifestations, he is the eldest son of the Buddhas; in some manifestations, he is a student on the path whose qualities are not yet complete; in some manifestations, he performs various deeds in an ordinary form, performing all the deeds of all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and entering the realms of countless beings, abiding in inconceivable liberation. From the Sutra of the Samadhi of Heroic Progress, it is shown that he attained Buddhahood in the past; from the Sutra of Benefiting with a Garland of Fingers, it is shown that he attained Buddhahood and lived in this way; from the Array of the Qualities of Mañjuśrī's Pure Land, it is shown that in countless future kalpas, he will attain Buddhahood as the Lord Samantadarśin. Thus, although he shows various deeds of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, he never diminishes or increases. With a wisdom body like the sky, his various deeds merge equally with the limits of sentient beings. As stated in the Secret Tantra of Mañjuśrī: I appeared before the three times, I appeared before all Buddhas. I will also appear after the three times, I appear in the three times now. Thus, I am the body appearing in the three times. When all the teachings are obscured, at that time my teachings will appear. However peaceful, I am the body of all peace. However wrathful, all wrath is my body. Thus it is proclaimed. Therefore, some manifestations of Mañjuśrī Kumārabhūta are the teachings of the Tathāgata.

总而言之,对于那些已经成为衡量标准的,用简短的语言概括并清晰地表达其含义。 ༈ 在名为《圣妙吉祥友功德经》的大乘经典中,由名为“降伏一切菩萨”的请问: 世尊,妙吉祥童子安住于法界,不执着地讲经说法。这位妙吉祥童子进入法界有多久了? 当他这样祈请时,世尊开示说: 无量无数不可思议的亿万佛陀已经完全从痛苦中解脱,但他们都是由妙吉祥童子安置于无上菩提之道的。他们全部在清净的佛土成佛,然后完全从痛苦中解脱。 在过去,无数不可估量、不可计数、不可思议、无与伦比、无法言说的劫数之前,甚至在那更遥远的过去,有一尊佛出世,名为智慧吉祥。 在那更遥远的过去,有一尊如来名为智慧生。 同样,将“在那更遥远的过去”应用于所有佛名: 如来智慧上师,智慧见,智慧行境,智慧宝藏,智慧吉祥,狮子吼,狮子降伏,狮子智慧,大力摧毁者,力量持有者,吉祥堆积精华,完全摧毁者,至极喜悦之王,力量之势完全降伏者,完全寂静行者,寂静光芒顶髻之王,无边智慧,无边调伏,莲花顶髻,无垢面容,月光,无垢光芒,善于摧毁一切疑惑者,显现者,一切降伏者,甘露持有者,甘露名声,无垢之眼,不退转者,无垢之眼,至上香王,至上香吉祥,香王,智慧香,乌巴拉之眼,无边光明之眼,调伏一切敌者,显胜山王以胜利为庄严者,梵天顶髻,梵天救护者,这些佛都已出现。

In short, to express in concise words and clear meaning those that have become the standard of measurement: ༈ In the Mahayana Sutra called "Noble Manjushri's Meritorious Qualities," asked by one named "Subduing All Bodhisattvas": "Bhagavan, Manjushri, the youthful one, abides in the realm of Dharma, teaching the Dharma without attachment. How long has this youthful Manjushri entered the realm of Dharma?" When he thus requested, the Bhagavan replied: "Countless billions of Buddhas, immeasurable in number, have completely passed beyond sorrow, yet all of them were placed on the path to unsurpassed Bodhi by Manjushri, the youthful one. All of them attained Buddhahood in pure Buddha-fields and then completely passed beyond sorrow. In the past, countless, innumerable, inconceivable, incomparable, and inexpressible eons ago, even far beyond that, a Buddha appeared in the world named Jñānaśrī (Wisdom Glory). Far beyond that, there was a Tathagata named Jñānākara (Source of Wisdom).

These Buddhas have appeared.

在那更遥远的地方,一个劫中出现了六万尊佛降临世间,他们的第一位名叫光。最后一位名叫如来名闻光。在那更遥远的地方,有四百亿尊佛降临世间。他们的第一位名叫如来燃灯佛,最后一位名叫如来眼明降临世间。在那更遥远的地方,一个劫中出现了九十亿尊佛。他们的第一位名叫如来乐眼,最后一位名叫如来分别者所分别。在那更遥远的地方,如来名曰最胜喜降临世间。在那佛的刹土中,有名称施、勇智、梵天眼、旃檀、极美、狮子持、普美、无边勇、慧不劣、决定,以及名为亲近乐的菩萨摩诃萨,他们以亲近乐树为伴,具有无数的功德,十一位梵行者行持梵行。当时,婆罗门种姓中,如同大娑罗树一般的太阳施,他聪明且心思敏捷,具有智慧的本性。与大约五百位婆罗门朋友一同从名为具宝的城市外出,前往名为众喜的花园,在那里见到了安坐的十一位菩萨,对他们生起了极大的欢喜心。在那里,圣者名称施观察太阳施的行仪后,心想:这位圣者将成为无上菩提的法器。于是对那十一位圣者说道:诸位有德者,太阳施将以佛子之行,成为无上佛法的法器。如果以慈悲心教导他,他将为众多凡夫众生带来利益和光明,请好好考虑。之后,婆罗门太阳施前往那十一位圣者处。

Beyond that, even further beyond, in one kalpa, sixty thousand Buddhas appeared in the world, the first of whom was named Light. The last was named the Tathagata Famous Light. Beyond that, even further beyond, four billion Buddhas appeared in the world. The first of these was named the Tathagata Dipamkara, and the last was named the Tathagata Eye-Intelligence appeared in the world. Beyond that, even further beyond, in one kalpa, nine billion Buddhas appeared. The first of these was named the Tathagata Happy Eye, and the last was named the Tathagata Differentiated by the Differentiator. Beyond that, even further beyond, a Tathagata named Supreme Joy appeared in the world. In that Buddha's field, there were bodhisattvas mahasattvas named Fame-Giving, Brave-Wise, Brahma's Eye, Sandalwood, Most Beautiful, Lion-Holder, All-Beautiful, Boundless Courage, Non-Inferior Intelligence, Certainty, and Happy to Associate With. These eleven, who were endowed with hundreds of thousands of virtues and were happy to associate with the tree, practiced pure conduct. At that time, a Brahmin by the name of Sun-Given, who was like a great Sala tree, was wise, quick-witted, and of the nature of wisdom. He, along with about five hundred Brahmin friends, went out from the city called Jewel-Possessed and went to the garden called Various Joys, and there he saw the eleven bodhisattvas seated and his mind became very pleased with them. There, the noble man Fame-Given, looking at the conduct of the ascetic Sun-Given, thought, 'This noble man will become a vessel for unsurpassed enlightenment.' Then he spoke to those eleven noble men: 'O you who are endowed with life, Sun-Given here will go in the manner of a son of the Buddha and become a vessel for the unsurpassed teachings of the Buddha. If you show him the teachings with loving-kindness, he will benefit and illuminate many ordinary beings, so please consider this well.' Then the Brahmin Sun-Given went to the eleven noble men.

于是以视师之想顶礼,于一处站立,极其恭敬欢喜而作。之后,种姓之子名声施予者对太阳施予者说,佛陀出现于世甚为稀有,其甚深之法难以证悟,是超越一切世间的。其法如在虚空中书写一般,未曾发生,也不会发生,因为一切法皆是无生无灭、不可言说的自性。婆罗门们对此深感欣喜,佛陀的甚深之法得以圆满。之后,婆罗门太阳施予者和十一位圣者前往如来欢喜顶处,顶礼并于一处安坐,听闻如来宣说一切法无自性,以一自性之法。婆罗门太阳施予者因获得善根之力,身高达到七棵棕榈树之高,在十方无量世界中,见到了无量菩萨以各种巧妙方便精进修行。同样,也见到了无量菩萨从兜率天降生,从入胎到成佛,乃至涅槃,都安住于虚空中。之后,婆罗门太阳施予者以极其欢喜之心,用符合义理的偈颂赞叹佛陀,以此善根,于不可说劫中,从未疯狂或愚痴,无论生于何处,都成为引导者、大丈夫。从未堕入邪道,不依赖他人,不看他人脸色,乃至仅仅是弹指之间,也未曾不令众生完全成熟。当时,名为种姓之子名声施予者,就是现在的种姓之子善护,同样,成为智者精华的就是现在的菩萨宝源等等。婆罗门太阳施予者就是文殊童子。如此,菩萨若欲不依赖他人,不被他人牵引,不看他人脸色,则应修习佛法。

Then, with the thought of seeing the teacher, they prostrated and stood in one place, acting with extreme reverence and joy. Then, the son of the family, Grak Jin, said to Nima Jin, "It is rare for a Buddha to appear in the world, and its profound Dharma is difficult to realize, surpassing all worlds. Its Dharma is like writing in the sky, which has not happened and will not happen, because all Dharmas are unborn, unceasing, and of an inexpressible nature." The Brahmins were very pleased and rejoiced, and the profound Dharma of the Buddha was perfected. Then, the Brahmin Nima Jin and the eleven noble men went to the Tathagata Gawa Chok, prostrated, and sat in one place, hearing the Tathagata teach that all Dharmas are without characteristics, with the Dharma of one characteristic. The Brahmin Nima Jin, having gained the power of the root of virtue, rose to the height of seven palm trees, and in the immeasurable realms of the ten directions, he saw immeasurable Bodhisattvas diligently practicing various skillful means. Similarly, he also saw immeasurable Bodhisattvas descending from Tushita, from entering the womb to becoming Buddha, and even to Nirvana, all dwelling in the sky. Then, the Brahmin Nima Jin, with a supremely joyful mind, praised the Buddha with verses that conformed to the meaning, and with this root of virtue, for immeasurable kalpas, he never became mad or foolish, and wherever he was born, he became a guide, a great man. He never fell into wrong views, did not depend on others, did not look at the faces of others, and even in the time it takes to snap his fingers, he never failed to fully ripen sentient beings. At that time, the son of the family named Grak Jin was this son of the family, Zang Kyong. Similarly, the one who became the essence of wisdom is now the Bodhisattva Konchok Jungne, and so on. The Brahmin Nima Jin was Manjushri Kumara himself. Thus, if a Bodhisattva wishes not to depend on others, not to be led by others, and not to look at the faces of others, he should practice the Dharma.
