t12n0340 the sutra on the inconceivable buddha realm spoken by manjushri.g2.0f

Chinese

额广眉长,面目清净。如金罗网,常有光明,亦如莲华,离诸尘垢。发言含笑,进止回旋,动必合仪,丽而有则。譬如满月,人所乐见。笙篌琴瑟,箫笛钟鼓,或歌或啸,音节相和,妙妓成行,分庭共舞,如是等事,宛然备瞩。时善胜天子,见自宫殿及其眷属欢娱事已,心生疑怪,白文殊师利菩萨言:“奇哉。大士!云何令我及以大众,瞬息之间而来至此?”   尔时,长老须菩提语善胜天子言:“天子!我初亦谓与诸大众皆共至于兜率陀天,而今乃知本来不动,曾不共往彼天之上。如是所见,皆是文殊师利菩萨三昧神通之所现耳。”   时善胜天子即白佛言:“世尊!文殊师利菩萨甚为希有,乃能以三昧神通不思议力,令此众会不动本处而言至此兜率陀天。”   佛言:“天子,汝但知文殊师利童子神通变化少分之力,我之所知无有量也。天子!以文殊师利神通之力,假使如恒河沙等诸佛国土,种种严好各各不同,能于一佛土中普令明见。又以如恒河沙等诸佛国土,集在一处,状如缯束,举掷上方不以为难。又以如恒河沙等诸佛国土,所有大海置一毛孔,而令其中众生不觉不知、无所触娆。又以如恒河沙等诸佛国土,所有须弥山王,以彼众山内于一山,复以此山内于芥子,而令住彼山上一切诸天,不觉 现代汉语译本:他的额头宽广,眉毛修长,面容清净。如同金色的罗网,身上常有光明,也像莲花一样,远离一切尘垢。他说话时面带微笑,举止进退都符合礼仪,既美丽又有法则。就像满月一样,令人喜悦。笙、篌、琴、瑟、箫、笛、钟、鼓等乐器,或歌唱或啸吟,音节和谐,美丽的歌舞伎排列成行,在庭院中共同舞蹈,这些景象都清晰可见。这时,善胜天子看到自己宫殿以及眷属欢娱的景象后,心中产生疑惑,对文殊师利菩萨说:‘真是奇特啊,大士!您是如何让包括我在内的大众,在瞬间就来到这里的?’ 这时,长老须菩提对善胜天子说:‘天子!我最初也以为和大家一起到了兜率陀天(欲界六天之一,弥勒菩萨的居所),现在才知道我们本来就没有动过,根本没有去到那个天上。我们所看到的,都是文殊师利菩萨以三昧(禅定)神通所显现的。’ 这时,善胜天子就对佛说:‘世尊!文殊师利菩萨真是太稀有了,竟然能以三昧神通不可思议的力量,让这里的众会没有离开原来的地方就来到了兜率陀天。’ 佛说:‘天子,你只知道文殊师利童子神通变化少许的力量,我所知道的他的力量是无法衡量的。天子!以文殊师利的神通之力,即使像恒河沙数那样多的佛国,种种庄严美好各不相同,他也能在一个佛国中让大家普遍明见。又以像恒河沙数那样多的佛国,聚集在一起,形状像用绳子捆扎起来一样,举起来扔到上方也不觉得困难。又以像恒河沙数那样多的佛国,所有的大海放在一个毛孔里,而让其中的众生不觉得不知晓,也没有任何干扰。又以像恒河沙数那样多的佛国,所有的须弥山王(佛教宇宙观中的中心山),把那些山都放入一座山中,再把这座山放入芥子中,而让住在山上的一切诸天,不觉得’

English version: His forehead was broad, his eyebrows long, and his face pure and serene. Like a golden net, he was always radiant with light, and like a lotus flower, he was free from all defilements. He spoke with a smile, his movements and gestures were all in accordance with propriety, beautiful and yet disciplined. He was like a full moon, pleasing to behold. The sounds of sheng (a reed pipe wind instrument), hou (a stringed instrument), qin (a zither-like instrument), se (a plucked string instrument), xiao (a vertical bamboo flute), di (a transverse bamboo flute), bells, and drums, whether singing or whistling, were in harmonious accord. Beautiful dancers lined up, dancing together in the courtyard. All these things were clearly visible. At that time, the Deva Son Shansheng, having seen the joyful scenes of his palace and his retinue, felt doubt in his heart and said to Manjushri Bodhisattva: ‘How wondrous, Great Bodhisattva! How did you cause me and this great assembly to arrive here in an instant?’ At that time, the elder Subhuti said to the Deva Son Shansheng: ‘Deva Son! I initially thought that we had all come to the Tushita Heaven (one of the six heavens of the desire realm, the abode of Maitreya Bodhisattva), but now I know that we have never moved from our original place, and we have not actually gone to that heaven. What we have seen is all a manifestation of the samadhi (meditative absorption) and supernatural powers of Manjushri Bodhisattva.’ Then, the Deva Son Shansheng said to the Buddha: ‘World Honored One! Manjushri Bodhisattva is truly extraordinary, for he is able to use the inconceivable power of samadhi and supernatural abilities to bring this assembly to the Tushita Heaven without moving from their original place.’ The Buddha said: ‘Deva Son, you only know a small portion of the power of the supernatural transformations of Manjushri Bodhisattva. The power that I know is immeasurable. Deva Son! With the power of Manjushri's supernatural abilities, even if there were as many Buddha lands as the sands of the Ganges River, each with different kinds of adornments and beauties, he could make them all clearly visible in one Buddha land. Also, he could gather as many Buddha lands as the sands of the Ganges River into one place, shaped like a bundle tied with a rope, and lift it up and throw it without difficulty. Also, he could place all the oceans of as many Buddha lands as the sands of the Ganges River into one pore, and the beings within would not feel or know it, nor would they be disturbed in any way. Also, he could take all the Mount Sumerus (the central mountain in Buddhist cosmology) of as many Buddha lands as the sands of the Ganges River, put those mountains into one mountain, and then put that mountain into a mustard seed, and all the devas (gods) living on that mountain would not feel it.’ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 不知亦无所娆。又以如恒河沙等诸佛国土,其中所有五道众生,置右掌中,复取是诸国土一切乐具,一一众生尽以与之等无差别。又以如恒河沙等诸佛国土,劫尽烧时,所有大火集在一处,令其大小如一灯炷,所有火事如本无别。又如恒河沙等诸佛国土,所有日月,若于一毛孔舒光映之,普令其明隐蔽不现。天子!我于一劫若一劫余,说文殊师利童子三昧神通变化之力,不可穷尽。”   尔时,魔波旬自变其身作比丘形,在于会中却坐一面,白佛言:“世尊!我今闻说文殊师利童子神通之力,不能信受。唯愿世尊!令于我前现其神力,使我得见。”   尔时,世尊知是恶魔变为比丘,欲令众生善根增长,故告文殊师利菩萨言:“汝应自现神通之力,令此会中无量众生咸得善利。”   文殊师利所说不思议佛境界经卷上 大正藏第 12 册 No. 0340 文殊师利所说不思议佛境界经   文殊师利所说不思议佛境界经卷下   唐天竺三藏菩提流志奉 诏译   尔时,文殊师利菩萨受佛教已,即时入一切法心自在神通三昧。入此三昧已,起神通力,现于如上所说神变之事。显然明着,皆悉现前,如佛所言,不增不减。预斯会者,靡不咸见。是时,大众睹此神力,叹未曾有,同声唱言: { "translations": [ "现代汉语译本:不知道也不会被扰乱。又比如,将如恒河沙数一样多的诸佛国土中所有五道众生,都放在右掌中,再取这些国土中所有的享乐之物,毫无差别地给予每一个众生。又比如,当如恒河沙数一样多的诸佛国土在劫尽时被焚烧,所有的大火聚集在一起,使其大小如同一根灯芯,其火焰的性质与原来没有区别。又比如,如恒河沙数一样多的诸佛国土中的所有日月,如果在一根毛孔中舒放光芒照耀它们,就能使它们的光明完全隐蔽,不再显现。天子!我即使说一个劫或一个劫多一点的时间,也无法穷尽文殊师利童子(Manjusri Bodhisattva,智慧的象征)的三昧神通变化之力。”, "当时,魔波旬(Mara Papiyas,佛教中的魔王)自己变化成比丘的模样,在法会中退坐一旁,对佛说:‘世尊!我现在听闻文殊师利童子的神通之力,不能相信接受。唯愿世尊!让他在我面前展现他的神力,使我能够亲眼见到。’", "当时,世尊知道这是恶魔变化成比丘,为了使众生的善根增长,所以告诉文殊师利菩萨说:‘你应该自己展现神通之力,使这法会中无量的众生都能得到善利。’", "《文殊师利所说不思议佛境界经》卷上", "大正藏第12册 No. 0340 《文殊师利所说不思议佛境界经》", "《文殊师利所说不思议佛境界经》卷下", "唐天竺三藏菩提流志奉诏译", "当时,文殊师利菩萨接受佛的教诲后,立即进入一切法心自在神通三昧(Samadhi,禅定)。进入此三昧后,他发起神通力,展现了如上所说的神变之事。这些神变清晰明了地全部显现在眼前,正如佛所说,不多也不少。参加法会的人,没有谁不看见的。当时,大众看到这种神力,赞叹从未有过,同声说道:" ], "english_translations": [ "English version: Not knowing, nor being disturbed. Furthermore, if one were to place all sentient beings of the five realms within Buddha lands as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River on the right palm, and then take all the enjoyable things from these lands, giving them to each and every being without any difference. Also, if all the great fires from Buddha lands as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River, when they are burned at the end of a kalpa (aeon), were gathered into one place, making it as small as a wick of a lamp, the nature of the fire would be no different from the original. Furthermore, if all the suns and moons from Buddha lands as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River were to shine their light through one pore, they would completely conceal their brightness, making them invisible. O son of heaven! Even if I were to speak for one kalpa or a little more than one kalpa, I could not exhaust the power of the samadhi (meditative absorption) and the miraculous transformations of Manjusri Bodhisattva (symbol of wisdom).", "At that time, Mara Papiyas (the demon king in Buddhism) transformed himself into the form of a bhiksu (monk), sat to one side in the assembly, and said to the Buddha: 'World Honored One! Now that I have heard of the miraculous powers of Manjusri Bodhisattva, I cannot believe and accept it. I beseech the World Honored One! To have him display his miraculous powers before me, so that I may see it with my own eyes.'", "At that time, the World Honored One, knowing that this was an evil demon transformed into a bhiksu, and wishing to increase the good roots of sentient beings, said to Manjusri Bodhisattva: 'You should display your miraculous powers yourself, so that the immeasurable sentient beings in this assembly may all receive good benefits.'", "The Sutra of the Inconceivable Realm of the Buddhas Spoken by Manjusri, Volume 1", "Taisho Tripitaka Volume 12, No. 0340, The Sutra of the Inconceivable Realm of the Buddhas Spoken by Manjusri", "The Sutra of the Inconceivable Realm of the Buddhas Spoken by Manjusri, Volume 2", "Translated by Tripitaka Bodhiruci of Tang India, under Imperial Decree", "At that time, Manjusri Bodhisattva, having received the Buddha's teaching, immediately entered the samadhi of the unobstructed miraculous power of the mind of all dharmas (phenomena). Having entered this samadhi, he aroused his miraculous power and manifested the miraculous transformations as described above. These transformations were clearly and distinctly manifested before everyone, just as the Buddha had said, neither more nor less. Those who were present at the assembly all saw it. At that time, the assembly, seeing this miraculous power, exclaimed that they had never seen anything like it, and said in unison:" ] } --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“善哉善哉。诸佛如来为众生故出现世间。复有如是善权大士同出于世,而能现此不可思议威神之力。”   尔时,恶魔见此种种神变事已,欢喜踊跃,礼文殊师利菩萨足,合掌恭敬而向如来作如是言:“文殊师利童子甚为希有,乃能现是不可思议神通变化,诸有闻者孰不惊疑?若有众生得闻此事能生信受,假使恶魔如恒河沙,欲为恼害终不能也。世尊!我是恶魔,常于佛所伺求其便。心喜恼害一切众生,若见有人精勤习善,必以威力为其障碍。世尊!我从今日深发誓心,但此法门弘宣之处,所在国土城邑聚落百由旬内,我在其中,譬如盲者无有所作,不于众生而生侵恼。若见有受持读诵思惟解释是经者,必生尊重,供给供养。世尊!我之俦党,乐于佛法而生留难,若见有人修行于善,要加逼沮令其退失。我今为断如是恶事,说陀罗尼。”即说咒曰:   “怛侄他阿么黎(一) 毗么黎(二) 耻(音天以反)哆答鞞(三) 阿羯波你是多设咄𡀔(四) 誓曳(五) 誓耶末底(六) 输(去声)婆末底(七) 睒迷(去声,下两字同)扇底(八) 阿普迷(九) 普普迷(十) 地𠼝(十一) 阿契(十二) 莫契(十三) 佉契(十四) 弭履罗(十五) 阿伽(去声)迷(十六) 普罗(十七) 普罗 现代汉语译本 ‘太好了,太好了。诸佛如来为了众生的缘故出现在世间。又有像这样善于运用方便法门的大菩萨也一同出现在世间,能够显现这种不可思议的威神之力。’ 当时,恶魔见到这些种种神通变化的事情后,欢喜踊跃,礼拜文殊师利菩萨(Manjusri Bodhisattva)的脚,合掌恭敬地向如来说道:‘文殊师利童子(Manjusri)真是非常稀有,竟然能够显现这种不可思议的神通变化,所有听到的人谁不感到惊疑呢?如果有众生听到这件事能够产生信受,即使有像恒河沙数那么多的恶魔,想要去恼害他们也终究不能够。世尊!我是恶魔,常常在佛陀那里伺机寻找机会。内心喜欢恼害一切众生,如果见到有人精勤地修习善法,必定会用威力去障碍他们。世尊!我从今天起深深地发誓,只要这个法门弘扬宣讲的地方,所在的国土、城邑、聚落方圆百由旬(yojana,古印度长度单位,约12-15公里)之内,我身处其中,就像盲人一样无所作为,不会对众生产生侵扰恼害。如果见到有人受持、读诵、思惟、解释这部经,必定会生起尊重之心,给予供养。世尊!我的同党,喜欢对佛法制造障碍,如果见到有人修行善法,一定要加以逼迫阻挠,使他们退失。我现在为了断除这样的恶事,说出陀罗尼(dharani,总持,咒语)。’ 随即说咒语道: ‘怛侄他 阿么黎(amale) (一) 毗么黎(vimale) (二) 耻(chi)哆答鞞(citta-darpay) (三) 阿羯波你是多设咄𡀔(akarsha-paritas-dusta) (四) 誓曳(shaye) (五) 誓耶末底(shaya-mati) (六) 输(shubha)婆末底(shubha-mati) (七) 睒迷(shame) 扇底(shanti) (八) 阿普迷(apume) (九) 普普迷(pupume) (十) 地𠼝(dhi) (十一) 阿契(akhe) (十二) 莫契(mokhe) (十三) 佉契(khakhe) (十四) 弭履罗(milira) (十五) 阿伽(agama)迷(十六) 普罗(pura) (十七) 普罗(pura)’
