尔时，世尊说此颂已，告尊者护国言：“复有四种法，于诸菩萨而为难法。何等四法？一者、心不尊重，多行轻慢；二者、心无孝行，懈怠背逆；三者、心贪利养，少于知足；四者、心乐虚妄，邪求财利。如是四法为菩萨难法。” 复说颂曰： “佛法本师及父母， 全无信重多轻慢； 不行孝敬心懈怠， 常以愚痴行散乱； 一向贪心于利养； 复行虚妄为邪利； 自赞德业诬他人： ‘我能持戒及修行。’ 互相斗诤无慈愍， 覆藏己过见 现代汉语译本 看到众生心生欢喜，就像飞鸟聚集又离散一样。 观察这世间并非长久居留之地，因此要寻求伟大的菩提之道（觉悟之路）。 身心清净如同虚空，舍弃一切而无所畏惧。 对于利益供养没有贪恋执着，如同受惊的鹿一样心神不定。 世间总是处于巨大的危险之中，难以发起身心去求解脱。 看到这一切虚妄不实，所以我修行寂静之道。 总是用柔和的语言引导众生，对待怨恨和亲近的人都平等没有分别。 没有执着，没有停留，就像风一样自由，这是菩萨最上乘的修行。 无相的解脱，空性，无所求，明白一切有为法都如梦幻泡影。 常怀清净广大的心，饮用甘露般的法味，常常欢喜。 立志寻求佛法，依止善知识学习，这样的人五蕴（色、受、想、行、识）就会恒常清净。 即使被众苦逼迫也不会感到疲劳，这样就能证入总持门（陀罗尼，记忆和理解佛法的能力）。 理解这些所修的菩萨行，成就所求，令他人欢喜。 如果有人不寻求菩提，那他就是缺少智慧，百世都会迷失。 这时，世尊说完这些偈颂后，告诉尊者护国说：‘还有四种法，对于菩萨来说是难以修行的。哪四种法呢？一是心中不尊重，常常轻慢他人；二是心中没有孝道，懈怠叛逆；三是心中贪图利益供养，很少知足；四是心中喜欢虚妄，邪求财利。这四种法是菩萨难以修行的。’ 又说偈颂： 对于佛法本师和父母，完全没有信重，常常轻慢； 不行孝敬，心中懈怠，常常以愚痴的行为散乱； 一味贪心于利益供养；又行虚妄，为了不正当的利益； 自我赞叹功德，诬陷他人：‘我能持戒和修行。’ 互相争斗，没有慈悲怜悯，掩盖自己的过错，看到

English version Seeing sentient beings, one feels joy, like birds gathering and then scattering. Observing that this world is not a permanent dwelling, one seeks the great path of Bodhi (enlightenment). The body and mind are pure like the void, abandoning everything without fear. There is no attachment to gain or offerings, like a startled deer, the mind is unsettled. The world is always in great danger, it is difficult to arouse the mind to seek liberation. Seeing all this as illusory and unreal, therefore, I practice the path of tranquility. Always using gentle words to guide beings, treating enemies and loved ones equally without discrimination. Without attachment, without dwelling, like the wind, this is the supreme practice of a Bodhisattva. Formless liberation, emptiness, without desire, understanding that all conditioned phenomena are like illusions. Always maintaining a pure and vast mind, drinking the nectar of Dharma, always joyful. Aspiring to seek the Dharma, learning from a teacher, such a person's five aggregates (form, feeling, perception, mental formations, consciousness) are always pure. Even when oppressed by suffering, one does not feel weary, thus entering the gate of Dharani (the power to remember and understand the Dharma). Understanding these Bodhisattva practices, fulfilling what is sought, bringing joy to others. If one does not seek Bodhi, then one lacks wisdom and will be lost for hundreds of lifetimes. At that time, after the World Honored One spoke these verses, he said to the Venerable Protector of the Country: 'There are also four kinds of practices that are difficult for Bodhisattvas. What are these four? First, the mind does not respect, often showing contempt; second, the mind lacks filial piety, is lazy and rebellious; third, the mind is greedy for gain and offerings, rarely content; fourth, the mind delights in falsehood, seeking wealth and gain through improper means. These four practices are difficult for Bodhisattvas.' He then spoke in verses: Towards the teachers of the Dharma and parents, there is no respect or faith, often showing contempt; Not practicing filial piety, the mind is lazy, often scattered with foolish actions; Single-mindedly greedy for gain and offerings; also practicing falsehood for improper gain; Praising one's own virtues, slandering others: 'I can uphold the precepts and practice.' Fighting with each other, without compassion, concealing one's own faults, seeing -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 他非， 复行农业及经营， 如是沙门无功德。 末法之时人散乱， 斗诤、相杀、心嫉妒， 沙门隐灭如来法， 诸善苾刍皆远离， 菩提妙道永不逢， 五趣轮回无有穷。”

尔时，世尊说此颂已，告尊者护国言：“复有四种法，于诸菩萨宜应远离。何等四法？一者、懈怠，二者、不信，三者、嫉妒，四者、憎见他人。如是四法宜应远离。” 复说颂曰： “无信、懈怠心愚迷， 心怀嫉妒常瞋恚， 见有沙门持忍辱， 却行驱摈出伽蓝。 于彼世间贵贱人， 都无分别善恶事， 一向只行于是非， 如是过失从瞋得。 远离佛法诸功德， 堕入恶趣大火坑， 如是所行恶趣行， 不依教法获斯苦， 是故常行菩提道， 无令沦没恶趣生。 利益有情大金仙， 多劫俱胝方出世， 今时暂得遇牟尼， 速舍诸过求解脱。” 尔时，世尊说此颂已，告尊者护国言：“有四种法，于诸菩萨不应行。何等四法？一者、恶友补特伽罗不应行，二者、有见补特伽罗不应行，三者、舍一切善法补特伽罗不应行，四者、乐着财利补特伽罗不应行。如是四种补特伽罗不应行。” 复说颂曰： “若人远离诸恶友， 常得善友来亲近， 如夜 现代汉语译本 他们如果放弃修行，又去从事农业和经营，这样的沙门（出家人）就没有功德。 末法时期，人们心神散乱，争斗、互相残杀、心怀嫉妒。 沙门会使如来（佛陀）的教法隐没，所有善良的比丘（出家男子）都会远离。 菩提（觉悟）的妙道将永远无法遇到，将在五趣（地狱、饿鬼、畜生、人、天）中轮回，没有尽头。 那时，世尊说完这首偈颂后，告诉尊者护国说：‘还有四种法，菩萨应该远离。是哪四种法？一是懈怠，二是缺乏信心，三是嫉妒，四是憎恨他人。这四种法应该远离。’ 又说偈颂： ‘没有信心、懈怠、心智愚昧，心中怀着嫉妒，常常愤怒。 看到有沙门持守忍辱，却将他们驱逐出伽蓝（僧院）。 在那个世间，他们看重**（此处原文缺失，无法翻译），完全不分辨善恶之事。 一味地只做是非之事，这样的过失是从嗔恨中产生的。 远离佛法的一切功德，堕入恶趣（地狱、饿鬼、畜生）的大火坑。 像这样所行的恶趣之行，不遵循教法就会遭受这样的痛苦。 所以要常常修行菩提之道，不要让自己沦落到恶趣中。 利益众生的大金仙（佛陀），要经过无数劫才能出世。 现在暂时遇到了牟尼（释迦牟尼佛），要赶快舍弃各种过失，求解脱。’ 那时，世尊说完这首偈颂后，告诉尊者护国说：‘有四种法，菩萨不应该去做。是哪四种法？一是恶友补特伽罗（指人）不应该亲近，二是有见补特伽罗不应该亲近，三是舍弃一切善法的补特伽罗不应该亲近，四是贪恋财利的补特伽罗不应该亲近。这四种补特伽罗不应该亲近。’ 又说偈颂： ‘如果一个人远离各种恶友，常常能得到善友的亲近，就像夜晚

English version If they abandon practice and engage in agriculture and business, such Shramanas (monastics) have no merit. In the Dharma-ending Age, people's minds are scattered, they fight, kill each other, and harbor jealousy. The Shramanas will cause the Tathagata's (Buddha's) teachings to disappear, and all virtuous Bhikshus (monks) will depart. The wonderful path of Bodhi (enlightenment) will never be encountered, and they will revolve in the five realms (hell, hungry ghosts, animals, humans, and gods) without end. Then, after the World Honored One spoke this verse, he said to the Venerable Protector of the Country: 'There are also four dharmas that Bodhisattvas should avoid. What are these four dharmas? First, laziness; second, lack of faith; third, jealousy; and fourth, hatred of others. These four dharmas should be avoided.' He then spoke another verse: 'Those without faith, lazy, and with foolish minds, harbor jealousy and are always angry. Seeing Shramanas who practice patience, they drive them out of the Sangharama (monastery). In that world, they value ** (the original text is missing, cannot be translated), and do not distinguish between good and evil. They only engage in right and wrong, and such faults arise from anger. They are far from all the merits of the Buddha's teachings and fall into the great fire pit of the evil realms (hell, hungry ghosts, animals). Such actions of the evil realms, not following the teachings, will lead to such suffering. Therefore, one should always practice the path of Bodhi, and not let oneself fall into the evil realms. The great golden immortal (Buddha) who benefits sentient beings, only appears after countless kalpas. Now, having temporarily encountered Muni (Shakyamuni Buddha), one should quickly abandon all faults and seek liberation.' Then, after the World Honored One spoke this verse, he said to the Venerable Protector of the Country: 'There are four dharmas that Bodhisattvas should not practice. What are these four dharmas? First, one should not associate with evil friend Pudgalas (persons); second, one should not associate with opinionated Pudgalas; third, one should not associate with Pudgalas who abandon all good dharmas; and fourth, one should not associate with Pudgalas who are attached to wealth and profit. These four types of Pudgalas should not be associated with.' He then spoke another verse: 'If a person stays away from all evil friends, they will often be approached by good friends, like the night -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 圆月现当空， 除暗明显菩提道。 凡有所见常不断， 于己身命偏养育， 如是毒气能远离， 彼人成佛大智慧。 若舍最上微妙法， 不乐寂静甘露味， 如是名为不净器， 远离求证大菩提。 贪求财利、衣钵等， 复与在家同营事， 如是远离此火坑， 而能成就最上道。 常乐降伏诸魔怨， 恒转法轮度群品， 如是广作大利益， 常逢善友得菩提。 亲疏毁赞常平等， 利养、嫉妒亦复然， 如是无上诸佛智， 彼人不久悉成就。”

尔时，世尊说此颂已，告尊者护国言：“复有四种法，于诸菩萨为苦报法。何等四法？一者、轻慢教法，二者、执着我、人，三者、心无信解，四者、于不净境具足印持。如是四法为菩萨苦报法。” 复说颂曰： “若有受持微妙法， 堪受世间诸供养， 于彼轻慢无大智， 当受无边众恶苦； 于佛本师及父母， 常怀人、我不恭敬， 如是大福心不求， 当得不净无知处； 三宝最上良福田， 而无信解行归敬， 纯以虚诳昧世间， 如是当获罪恶苦； 女人即是恶趣门， 流浪生死无穷尽， 无智愚痴作彼业， 永沈地狱及畜趣。 若人尊重向诸佛， 能灭众苦得无畏 现代汉语译本 圆月当空照耀，驱散黑暗，显明菩提之道。 凡是所见之物，常执着不放，偏爱滋养自己的身命， 如果能远离这种毒害之气，那人就能成就佛陀的大智慧。 如果舍弃最上乘的微妙佛法，不乐于寂静的甘露法味， 这样的人就称为不净的器皿，远离了求证大菩提的道路。 如果贪求财利、衣钵等物，又与在家人一同经营世俗之事， 这样的人就能远离这火坑，从而成就最上乘的道。 如果常乐于降伏各种魔怨，恒常转动法轮，普度众生， 这样广作大利益，就能常遇善友，最终证得菩提。 如果对亲近和疏远的人，毁谤和赞美都能平等对待，对于利养和嫉妒也能如此， 这样无上的诸佛智慧，那人不久就能全部成就。 那时，世尊说完这偈颂后，告诉尊者护国说：‘还有四种法，对于诸菩萨来说是苦报之法。是哪四种法呢？一是轻慢教法，二是执着于我、人，三是心中没有信解，四是对不净的境界完全执着。这四种法是菩萨的苦报之法。’ 又说偈颂道： ‘如果有人受持微妙的佛法，堪受世间一切供养， 却对佛法轻慢，没有大智慧，将会遭受无边众多的恶苦； 对于佛陀本师以及父母，常常怀着我、人的分别心，不恭敬， 这样的人不求大福，将会得到不净无知的果报； 三宝是最上等的良田福地，却不信解，不行归敬， 纯粹用虚假的言行来迷惑世人，这样的人将会获得罪恶的苦报； 女人是通向恶道的门径，使人流浪生死，没有穷尽， 没有智慧的愚痴之人造作这样的业，将永远沉沦于地狱和畜生道。 如果有人尊重诸佛，就能灭除众苦，获得无畏。’

English version The full moon appears in the sky, dispelling darkness and revealing the path to Bodhi (enlightenment). Whatever is seen is constantly clung to, with a biased nurturing of one's own body and life, If one can distance oneself from this poisonous air, that person can achieve the great wisdom of a Buddha. If one abandons the supreme and subtle Dharma (teachings), and does not delight in the tranquil taste of the nectar of Dharma, Such a person is called an impure vessel, far from the path of seeking great Bodhi. If one craves wealth, benefits, robes, etc., and engages in worldly affairs with laypeople, Such a person can distance themselves from this pit of fire and thus achieve the supreme path. If one is always happy to subdue all demonic enemies, and constantly turns the wheel of Dharma to liberate all beings, By doing such great benefits, one will always meet good friends and ultimately attain Bodhi. If one can treat those close and distant, criticism and praise, with equanimity, and also treat gain and jealousy in the same way, Such supreme wisdom of all Buddhas, that person will soon achieve completely. At that time, after the World Honored One spoke this verse, he told the Venerable Protector of the Country: 'There are also four kinds of Dharma, which are the causes of suffering for all Bodhisattvas. What are these four Dharmas? First, to belittle the teachings; second, to be attached to self and others; third, to have no faith and understanding; fourth, to be fully attached to impure states. These four Dharmas are the causes of suffering for Bodhisattvas.' He then spoke another verse: 'If someone upholds the subtle Dharma, and is worthy of receiving all offerings in the world, Yet belittles the Dharma, lacking great wisdom, they will suffer endless evil torments; Towards the Buddha, the original teacher, and parents, they always harbor the distinction of self and others, and are not respectful, Such a person does not seek great blessings, and will receive the retribution of impurity and ignorance; The Three Jewels (Buddha, Dharma, Sangha) are the supreme fields of merit, yet they have no faith and understanding, and do not practice reverence, They purely use false words and actions to deceive the world, such a person will receive the suffering of sin; Women are the gateway to evil realms, causing one to wander in birth and death without end, Those without wisdom, foolishly creating such karma, will forever sink into hell and the animal realm. If a person respects all Buddhas, they can extinguish all suffering and attain fearlessness.' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ， 复闭一切恶趣门， 开引众生得佛道。” 佛说护国尊者所问大乘经卷第一
