English version The Buddha Speaks the Great Vehicle Sutra of King Udayana's Questions Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Dharma-deva, a Śramaṇa bestowed with a purple robe, from Nālandā Monastery in Magadha, Central India, under Imperial Decree. Thus have I heard: At one time, the Buddha was in the Ghoṣira Grove in Kauśāmbī, together with five hundred great Bhikṣus and many Bodhisattva Mahāsattvas. At that time, Anupamā-Māgandhikā, a woman of unparalleled beauty, arose with anger and jealousy towards Queen Śyāmāvatī. She said to King Udayana, ‘Does Your Majesty know? Queen Śyāmāvatī and her five hundred women are engaging in sexual misconduct with those Śramaṇas. I tell you now, this is truly intolerable.’ At that time, King Udayana, upon hearing Anupamā-Māgandhikā’s words, became extremely enraged and could not bear it. He intended to kill Lady Śyāmāvatī, so he took up his bow and shot an arrow. At that moment, Lady Śyāmāvatī entered the Samadhi of Loving-kindness. The arrow shot by the king burst into flames in the sky. The flames were intense, and the arrow turned back, stopping to the left of King Udayana—this was due to the Buddha’s secret protection. The arrow did not touch his body, nor did it cause any harm. At that time, King Udayana was terrified, his hair stood on end, and he fell to the ground, then got up again. He asked Lady Śyāmāvatī and spoke in verse: ‘Are you a celestial woman, a ghost woman, a Rākṣasī, or a Gandharva woman? I ask you this. What practice do you uphold? I have never seen, never heard, nor ever known of such a thing. Never has there been a woman whom weapons cannot harm. I am vigorous and skilled in archery. My arrows never miss, never are shot in vain. What I aim at, even monkeys cannot escape, so why does my arrow not harm you?’ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 猴及飞禽, 人身兼射垛, 而未无所中。 如我今放箭, 却回面前住, 不伤损我身。 我今归命汝, 愿救我苦恼。 审听诚实言, 我欲故杀汝。 舍过勿生瞋, 汝念为好事, 令我离苦恼, 永不复如是。”

尔时舍摩嚩底夫人答日子王,即说偈言: “我非是天女, 亦非健闼女, 非鬼、非罗刹, 是舍摩嚩底。 我作佛弟子, 为彼大慈悲, 故我心行善。 发心世尊处, 俱胝百千劫, 观彼善慈悲, 故我行慈行。 女色所缚人, 见彼如实者, 若苗稼成熟, 而被雷雹坏。 若离女色染, 我彼俱爱乐, 一切诸世尊, 远离于淫欲。 又闻世尊说: ‘佛与菩萨众, 缘觉及声闻, 悉皆离女色。 愚者不能知, 普被魔罗降, 离女色染污, 能得身安乐, 究竟得解脱。’ 无智诸众生, 爱欲无远离, 作罪业无边, 堕落三恶道, 无底欲火坑, 猛焰炽不灭。 有智乐解脱, 不为女色染。 见已便缠缚, 诈言虚适悦, 坠堕于众生, 死入险恶道。 勿听女人言, 亦不忿怒我, 意愿生欢喜, 发心世尊处。 汝欲求见佛, 我与大 现代汉语译本 ‘就像猴子和飞鸟,以及人的身体都作为射击的目标,却没有射中任何一个。就像我现在放箭,箭却回到我的面前,没有伤害到我的身体。我现在归顺于你,希望你能救我脱离苦恼。请仔细听我的真心话,我原本是想故意杀害你。请你放下过去的过错,不要生气,你所想的是好事,让我脱离苦恼,永远不再做这样的事。’ 当时,舍摩嚩底(Syamavati,人名)夫人回答优填王(Udayana,人名),说了以下偈语: ‘我不是天女,也不是乾闼婆(Gandharva,天神)女,不是鬼,也不是罗刹(Rakshasa,恶鬼),我是舍摩嚩底。我是佛的弟子,为了那伟大的慈悲,所以我心中行善。我在世尊那里发愿,在无数劫的时间里,观察那善的慈悲,所以我行慈悲之行。被女色所束缚的人,看到真实的情况,就像成熟的庄稼被冰雹摧毁一样。如果能远离女色的污染,我和他们都会感到快乐,所有的世尊都远离淫欲。又听世尊说:‘佛和菩萨众,缘觉和声闻,都远离女色。愚蠢的人不能明白,普遍被魔罗(Mara,魔王)所降伏,远离女色的污染,才能得到身心的安乐,最终得到解脱。’ 没有智慧的众生,对爱欲没有远离,造作无边的罪业,堕落到三恶道,进入无底的火坑,猛烈的火焰燃烧不灭。有智慧的人喜欢解脱,不被女色所污染。看到女色就缠缚,虚假地说着快乐的话,使众生坠落,死后进入危险的恶道。不要听信女人的话,也不要对我生气,希望你心中生起欢喜,在世尊那里发愿。如果你想见佛,我将与你一起去。’

English version 'Like monkeys and birds, and human bodies all used as targets for shooting, yet none were hit. Just as I now release an arrow, it returns to me without harming my body. I now surrender to you, hoping you can save me from suffering. Please listen carefully to my sincere words, I originally intended to kill you intentionally. Please let go of past mistakes and do not be angry, what you think is a good thing, allowing me to escape suffering and never do such a thing again.' At that time, Lady Syamavati (Syamavati, a name) answered King Udayana (Udayana, a name), and spoke the following verses: 'I am not a celestial maiden, nor a Gandharva (Gandharva, a celestial being) maiden, not a ghost, nor a Rakshasa (Rakshasa, a demon), I am Syamavati. I am a disciple of the Buddha, for the sake of that great compassion, therefore I practice good deeds in my heart. I made a vow at the place of the World Honored One, for countless eons, observing that good compassion, therefore I practice the path of compassion. Those who are bound by the allure of women, seeing the truth, are like mature crops destroyed by hail. If one can stay away from the defilement of women, both I and they will feel joy, all the World Honored Ones are far from lust. And I heard the World Honored One say: ‘Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, Pratyekabuddhas and Sravakas, all stay away from women. Foolish people cannot understand, they are universally subdued by Mara (Mara, the demon king), only by staying away from the defilement of women can one obtain peace of body and mind, and ultimately achieve liberation.’ Sentient beings without wisdom, do not stay away from desire, create boundless karmic offenses, fall into the three evil realms, enter the bottomless pit of fire, where fierce flames burn without ceasing. Those with wisdom delight in liberation, and are not defiled by the allure of women. Seeing it, they are immediately entangled, falsely speaking of pleasure, causing sentient beings to fall, and after death enter dangerous evil paths. Do not listen to the words of women, nor be angry with me, I hope that joy arises in your heart, and make a vow at the place of the World Honored One. If you wish to see the Buddha, I will go with you.' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 王去, 到彼汝谛听, 必说微妙法。”

English version 'Go there, listen carefully, and you will surely hear the subtle Dharma.' At that time, King Udayana said to Lady Shamavati: 'Now is the right time. You should quickly go to the World Honored One.' The king and his ministers, surrounded by attendants, saw the Great Sage (Mahamuni), majestic and dignified, like a great golden mountain, with radiant light, auspicious and adorned. They also saw Bodhisattva-Mahasattvas, as well as bhikshus, bhikshunis, upasakas, upasikas, deva-nagas, yakshas, gandharvas, asuras, garudas, kinnaras, mahoragas, humans and non-humans, surrounding the World Honored One. At that time, the great king bowed his head to the Buddha's feet and said to the Buddha: 'World Honored One! I have encountered an unprecedented event, something I have never heard or seen before. Today I come to the Buddha, hoping that the World Honored One will compassionately explain it to me.' The World Honored One said: 'Great King! Tell me about the unprecedented event you have encountered.' The king replied: 'Today, in my palace, there was a cause of lustful desire. A woman named Magandhika developed a slanderous mind, saying: ‘Lady Shamavati is engaging in sexual acts with sravaka-samanas.’ Upon hearing this, I was filled with extreme anger and wanted to kill Lady Shamavati. I shot an arrow at her, and flames erupted from the arrow, burning intensely, but it turned back to the left side of my body without harming me.' Lady Shamavati, bowing at the feet of the World Honored One, said: 'The king asked me: ‘Are you a deva-woman, a naga-woman, a gandharva-woman, a pisaci-woman, a ghost-woman, or a raksasi-woman? What practices have you cultivated to be like this?’ I replied to the king: ‘I am the king's wife, not a deva-woman, a naga-woman, a gandharva-woman, a pisaci-woman, or a raksasi-woman.’ World Honored One! The Tathagata, Arhat, Samyaksambuddha, my disciple's heart is good and pure, like that of a deva.' At this time, Lady Shamavati praised the merits of the World Honored One: 'My Buddha, the Tathagata, has such Samyaksambuddha wisdom, such great compassion, and is endowed with great blessings and wisdom.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

,成大威德,得大自在。何以故?如来、应、正等觉为天人师,愿鉴斯诚。” 尔时日子王,对佛及苾刍众前,忏悔发露:“我等由如愚童,如心迷乱,如在黑暗,如无善根,我念如来声闻,而生毁谤。善哉,世尊!愿解疑悔,我等受持。” 世尊说言:“汝发起慈心受持戒行,广利有情。” 日子王即从坐起,合掌恭敬。 佛言:“大王!汝但安坐。” 于时日子王头面作礼,却坐一面。日子王白佛言:“世尊!我心勇猛,听女人言,造罪业苦,知自命终堕于地狱。善哉,世尊!女人之过唯愿说之。” 世尊告言:“女人行业有其多种,惑乱有情,诈现异相,谄媚虚诳,心不真实,颠倒思惟谄曲诈伪,举动施为强求亲近,牵系有情恒行邪行,汝须省觉。” 王言:“世尊!愿赐慈悲,愿听所说。如我此后不近女人,亦不由女人而造罪业,既不造罪,不堕地狱。世尊!如我长夜利益安乐一切众生。” 佛言:“如是如是。” 复次日子王白言:“世尊!我于佛边闻斯欲义,实由女人得其恶报。” 佛言:“大王!女色深固,生冤家之父母,生暴恶之父母,若起爱乐堕于地狱;是故女人有如是之过。” 佛言:“大王!若较量丈夫淫欲之过,汝后 现代汉语译本:成就大威德,获得大自在。为什么呢?因为如来、应供、正等觉(佛的称号)是天人导师,希望您能明鉴我们的诚意。 当时,日子王在佛陀和比丘僧众面前忏悔并坦白说:‘我们就像愚蠢的孩童,心意迷乱,如同身处黑暗,如同没有善根。我们想到如来的声闻弟子,却产生了毁谤之心。善哉,世尊!希望您能解除我们的疑惑和悔恨,我们愿意接受并奉行您的教诲。’ 世尊说:‘你们应当发起慈悲心,受持戒律,广泛利益一切有情众生。’ 日子王立刻从座位上站起来,合掌恭敬。 佛陀说:‘大王,您请安坐。’ 这时,日子王向佛陀顶礼,然后退坐在一旁。日子王对佛陀说:‘世尊!我心性鲁莽,听信女人的话,造作了罪业,知道自己命终后会堕入地狱。善哉,世尊!请您说说女人的过失。’ 世尊告诉他说:‘女人的行为有很多种,她们迷惑扰乱有情众生,假装出各种不同的样子,谄媚虚伪,内心不真实,颠倒思量,谄媚欺诈,举动行为都强求亲近,牵绊有情众生,常常做出邪恶的行为,你应当警觉。’ 国王说:‘世尊!希望您赐予慈悲,允许我陈述。如果我从今以后不再亲近女人,也不再因为女人而造作罪业,既然不造罪,就不会堕入地狱。世尊!我愿长久地利益安乐一切众生。’ 佛陀说:‘是这样的,是这样的。’ 日子王又对佛陀说:‘世尊!我从佛陀这里听闻了关于欲望的道理,确实是因为女人而得到恶报。’ 佛陀说:‘大王!女色深固难拔,是产生冤家父母的根源,是产生暴恶父母的根源,如果对女色产生爱恋,就会堕入地狱;所以女人有这样的过失。’ 佛陀说:‘大王!如果比较衡量男人淫欲的过失,你以后’
