“得无垢女!诸菩萨摩诃萨,成就四法则得三昧。何等为四?一者、常说有为多苦。二者、乐独无侣。三者、发勤精进。四者、究竟善业。得无垢女!诸菩萨摩诃萨,若能成就如是四法,则得三昧。”   尔时世尊而说偈言: “说有为多苦,  乐独行如犀,  勤进常有智,  究竟行善业。  行如是四法,  求于菩提行,  得寂静三昧,  速觉佛菩提。   “得无垢女!诸菩萨摩诃萨,成就四法得神通力。何等为四?一者、身轻。二者、心轻。三者、受持一切佛法。四者、四界空界平等受持。得无垢女!诸菩萨摩诃萨,若能成就如是四法得神通力。”   尔时世尊而说偈言: “身轻如心轻,  法中无依止,  空界我无量,  四界等受持,  思量此四法,  得无量神通。  以此三昧力,  行一切世界,  一念普周遍,  见多千亿佛。   “得无垢女!诸菩萨摩诃萨,成就四法端正殊特。何等为四?一者、不瞋。二者、扫如来塔,障恶风雨,作已欢喜。三者、戒净具足护持。四者、常一切时先意问讯,见诸法器不欲破坏,心如金刚。得无垢女!诸菩萨摩诃萨,若能成就如是四法 现代汉语译本 能于百千劫(kalpa,时间单位,指极长的时间),听闻并受持而不遗忘, 十方诸佛所说的法,都能以忆念的力量领受。 ‘得无垢女(Vimalā,菩萨名)!诸菩萨摩诃萨(bodhisattva-mahāsattva,大菩萨),成就四种法则可以获得三昧(samādhi,禅定)。是哪四种呢?第一,常说有为法(saṃskṛta dharma,因缘和合而生的法)多苦。第二,喜欢独处,没有伴侣。第三,发起勤奋精进。第四,究竟圆满善业。得无垢女!诸菩萨摩诃萨,如果能够成就这四种法则,就能获得三昧。’ 这时,世尊(Bhagavān,佛的尊称)说了偈颂: ‘说有为法多苦,喜欢像犀牛一样独行, 勤奋精进常有智慧,究竟圆满善业。 修行这四种法则,追求菩提(bodhi,觉悟)之道, 获得寂静的三昧,迅速觉悟佛的菩提。 ‘得无垢女!诸菩萨摩诃萨,成就四种法则可以获得神通力(abhijñā,超自然能力)。是哪四种呢?第一,身体轻盈。第二,心念轻盈。第三,受持一切佛法。第四,平等受持四大(地、水、火、风)和空界(ākāśa-dhātu,空间)。得无垢女!诸菩萨摩诃萨,如果能够成就这四种法则,就能获得神通力。’ 这时,世尊说了偈颂: ‘身体轻盈如心念轻盈,在佛法中没有依赖执着, 空界我的量是无量的,平等受持四大。 思量这四种法则,获得无量的神通。 凭借这种三昧的力量,行走于一切世界, 一念之间普遍周遍,见到无数千亿的佛。 ‘得无垢女!诸菩萨摩诃萨,成就四种法则,相貌端正殊胜。是哪四种呢?第一,不嗔恨。第二,清扫如来(Tathāgata,佛的称号)的佛塔,遮挡恶风暴雨,做完后心生欢喜。第三,戒律清净,具足护持。第四,常常在一切时候先主动问候,见到法器不希望破坏,心如金刚。得无垢女!诸菩萨摩诃萨,如果能够成就这四种法则

English version Able to hear and retain without loss for hundreds of thousands of kalpas (an extremely long period of time), The teachings of the Buddhas of the ten directions can be grasped through the power of mindfulness. 'O Vimalā (Immaculate Woman, a bodhisattva)! Bodhisattva-mahāsattvas (great bodhisattvas), by accomplishing four dharmas, attain samādhi (meditative absorption). What are the four? First, they constantly speak of the suffering inherent in conditioned dharmas (saṃskṛta dharma, phenomena arising from causes and conditions). Second, they delight in solitude, without companions. Third, they generate diligent effort. Fourth, they perfectly accomplish virtuous deeds. O Vimalā! Bodhisattva-mahāsattvas, if they can accomplish these four dharmas, they will attain samādhi.' Then the Bhagavan (the Blessed One, an epithet of the Buddha) spoke these verses: 'Speaking of the suffering in conditioned dharmas, delighting in solitary wandering like a rhinoceros, Diligently striving, always with wisdom, perfectly accomplishing virtuous deeds. Practicing these four dharmas, seeking the path of bodhi (enlightenment), Attaining the peaceful samādhi, quickly awakening to the Buddha's bodhi.' 'O Vimalā! Bodhisattva-mahāsattvas, by accomplishing four dharmas, attain supernormal powers (abhijñā). What are the four? First, lightness of body. Second, lightness of mind. Third, upholding all the Buddha's teachings. Fourth, equally upholding the four elements (earth, water, fire, wind) and the space element (ākāśa-dhātu). O Vimalā! Bodhisattva-mahāsattvas, if they can accomplish these four dharmas, they will attain supernormal powers.' Then the Bhagavan spoke these verses: 'Lightness of body like lightness of mind, without reliance or attachment in the Dharma, The space element, my measure is immeasurable, equally upholding the four elements. Contemplating these four dharmas, attaining immeasurable supernormal powers. Through the power of this samādhi, traveling through all the worlds, In a single thought, universally pervading, seeing countless billions of Buddhas.' 'O Vimalā! Bodhisattva-mahāsattvas, by accomplishing four dharmas, become exceptionally beautiful. What are the four? First, not being angry. Second, sweeping the stupas of the Tathāgata (the Thus-Gone One, an epithet of the Buddha), shielding them from evil winds and rain, and rejoicing after doing so. Third, maintaining pure precepts, fully upholding them. Fourth, always being the first to greet others, not wishing to destroy Dharma vessels, with a mind like diamond. O Vimalā! Bodhisattva-mahāsattvas, if they can accomplish these four dharmas -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 端正殊特。”   尔时世尊而说偈言: “于他无瞋垢,  障佛塔风雨,  净扫治庄严,  常恭敬供养,  净戒常护持,  常先意问讯,  尽心于法器,  如金刚须弥。
