降毁魔场三昧正受,应时三千大千世界百亿魔宫一时皆蔽,不乐其处,各各怀懅。时魔波旬自见老耄羸顿,少气拄杖而行,所有宫人婇女之等,亦复羸老。又见宫殿而复崩坏,暗暗冥冥不知东西。 时魔波旬即怀恐惧,衣毛为竖,心自念言:“此何变怪,令吾宫殿委顿乃尔?将死罪至,归命寿终,天地遇灾,劫被烧耶?” 时魔波旬弃除贡高,舍恶思想。 时文殊师利所化百亿天子在交络者,住诸魔前,谓魔波旬:“莫怀恐惧,汝等之身终无患难,有不退转菩萨大士名文殊师利,威德殊绝,总摄十方,德过须弥,智超江海,慧越虚空。于今以是降毁魔场三昧正受,是其威神。” 诸天子等适宣此言,诸魔闻之,益怀恐惧,畏于文殊。诸魔宫殿寻时震动,诸魔波旬报化菩萨:“愿见救济。” 答曰:“且安!勿怀恐惧。仁等当往至释迦文佛所,如来至真,有无尽哀畅无极慈。假使众生有大恐惧,慰沃仁慈,令无所畏。” 诸化菩萨适说此言,忽没不现。 众魔忻然,与诸交络化座菩萨,佥共同心,往诣佛所,羸老拄杖,一时发音,前白佛言:“唯愿,大圣!救护我等,令得济脱如此大患。宁得值遇百千亿佛功德名称,不为独一文殊师利所见逼迫。所以者何?我等属者,闻文 现代汉语译本 当文殊师利菩萨进入降伏魔场的正定三昧时,三千大千世界中百亿魔宫顿时都被遮蔽,魔众不再喜欢待在那里,各自心怀恐惧。 这时,魔王波旬(Māra Pāpīyas,魔王的名字)看到自己衰老体弱,气力衰竭,需要拄着拐杖行走,他所有的宫女侍妾也都变得衰老。他还看到自己的宫殿正在崩塌,一片黑暗,分不清东西。 魔王波旬心中充满恐惧,汗毛竖立,他自言自语道:‘这是什么怪事,让我的宫殿如此衰败?难道是死期将至,寿命终结,天地遭遇灾难,世界要被烧毁了吗?’ 这时,魔王波旬抛弃了贡高我慢,舍弃了邪恶的思想。 这时,文殊师利菩萨所化现的百亿天子,在交错的宝座上,站在众魔面前,对魔王波旬说:‘不要恐惧,你们的身体不会有任何灾难。有一位不退转的菩萨大士,名叫文殊师利(Mañjuśrī,菩萨名),他的威德殊胜绝伦,统摄十方,德行超越须弥山(Sumeru,佛教中的圣山),智慧超越江海,慧力超越虚空。他现在正以降伏魔场的正定三昧,展现他的威神之力。’ 众天子刚说完这些话,众魔听到后,更加恐惧,畏惧文殊师利菩萨。魔宫随即震动,魔王波旬向化现的菩萨求救:‘希望您能救济我们。’ 化现的菩萨回答说:‘请安心!不要恐惧。你们应当前往释迦牟尼佛(Śākyamuni Buddha,佛教创始人)那里,如来是至真之人,拥有无尽的慈悲和无限的爱。即使众生有极大的恐惧,他也会用慈悲来安慰,使他们不再畏惧。’ 化现的菩萨刚说完这些话,就忽然消失不见。 众魔欣喜若狂,与那些交错宝座上的化现菩萨一起,同心同德,前往佛陀所在之处。他们拄着拐杖,衰老体弱,同时发出声音,向前禀告佛陀说:‘唯愿大圣!救护我们,让我们从如此大的灾难中解脱。我们宁愿遇到百千亿佛的功德名号,也不愿被文殊师利菩萨一人所逼迫。这是为什么呢?我们这些眷属,听到文殊师利菩萨的名字,就感到恐惧,更何况是见到他呢?’

English version When Mañjuśrī Bodhisattva entered the Samadhi of Subduing the Māra Field, the hundred billion Māra palaces in the three thousand great thousand worlds were instantly obscured. The Māras no longer enjoyed being there, and each felt fear. At that time, Māra Pāpīyas (the name of the demon king) saw that he was old and weak, his strength depleted, and he needed to walk with a cane. All his palace women and concubines had also become old. He also saw that his palace was collapsing, and it was dark, and he could not distinguish east from west. Māra Pāpīyas was filled with fear, his hair stood on end, and he said to himself, 'What is this strange event that has caused my palace to decay so much? Is it that death is approaching, my life is ending, the heavens and earth are encountering disaster, and the world is about to be burned?' At this time, Māra Pāpīyas abandoned his arrogance and discarded his evil thoughts. At this time, the hundred billion heavenly sons transformed by Mañjuśrī Bodhisattva, standing on the intertwined thrones, stood before the Māras and said to Māra Pāpīyas, 'Do not be afraid, there will be no harm to your bodies. There is a Bodhisattva Mahāsattva who does not regress, named Mañjuśrī (the name of the Bodhisattva), whose power and virtue are extraordinary, encompassing the ten directions. His virtue surpasses Mount Sumeru (a sacred mountain in Buddhism), his wisdom surpasses the rivers and seas, and his wisdom surpasses the void. He is now using the Samadhi of Subduing the Māra Field to display his divine power.' As soon as the heavenly sons finished speaking, the Māras, upon hearing this, became even more fearful, dreading Mañjuśrī Bodhisattva. The Māra palaces immediately shook, and Māra Pāpīyas asked the transformed Bodhisattvas for help, saying, 'We hope you can save us.' The transformed Bodhisattvas replied, 'Please be at ease! Do not be afraid. You should go to Śākyamuni Buddha (the founder of Buddhism). The Tathāgata is the most truthful one, possessing endless compassion and boundless love. Even if sentient beings have great fear, he will comfort them with compassion, so that they will no longer be afraid.' As soon as the transformed Bodhisattvas finished speaking, they suddenly disappeared. The Māras were overjoyed, and together with the transformed Bodhisattvas on the intertwined thrones, they went to where the Buddha was. They leaned on their canes, old and weak, and spoke in unison, reporting to the Buddha, 'We beseech you, Great Sage! Protect us and deliver us from this great calamity. We would rather encounter the merit and names of hundreds of billions of Buddhas than be oppressed by Mañjuśrī Bodhisattva alone. Why is this? We, his retinue, feel fear upon hearing the name of Mañjuśrī Bodhisattva, let alone seeing him?' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 殊名,寻即恐惧,不能自安,畏亡身命。”

佛告诸魔:“如仁所言,亿百千佛所益众生,不及文殊之所开化,各各劝导无央数众令得解脱。所以者何?汝等未闻亿百千佛功德名号,虽遭恼患,心怀恐惧。因一文殊之所兴变,所难益甚。” 诸魔白佛:“我等羞惭此羸老身,今从世尊自归加哀,愿复本形,挍饰天服。” 佛告诸魔:“且待须臾!文殊师利如是来至,当脱斯等如此众难。” 于是文殊安隐庠序,与无央数诸天子等,百千那术眷属围绕,不可称计天龙鬼神、阿须伦、迦留罗、真陀罗、摩睺勒,亿百兆载无量菩萨,其数无限,前后导从,鼓百千乐,雨众名香,青莲红黄白华,清净庄严,无极威变,见莫不欢,俱往诣佛,稽首足下,绕佛三匝,退坐一面。 于时世尊告文殊曰:“仁且正受,以降毁魔,而三昧矣!” 文殊白佛:“唯当从教。” 世尊又问:“以何方宜,而从如来听受此定?又何久如成此三昧?” 文殊白曰:“唯然,大圣!我未发无上正真道意时,闻此定名,寻时则成是三昧矣!” 又问文殊:“所从闻是三昧定者,其号何等如来?” 文殊白佛:“乃往过去久远世时,越过江河沙不可计会阿僧祇劫,尔时有佛,号意华香如 现代汉语译本: ‘听到文殊菩萨的名字,我们立刻感到恐惧,无法安定,害怕失去生命。’ 佛陀告诉众魔:‘正如你们所说,亿百千佛所利益的众生,也比不上文殊菩萨所开化的,他劝导无数众生获得解脱。这是为什么呢?你们没有听闻亿百千佛的功德名号,即使遭遇苦恼,心中也怀有恐惧。而文殊菩萨所引发的变化,所带来的利益更为深远。’ 众魔对佛说:‘我们为这衰弱老迈的身体感到羞愧,现在从世尊这里皈依,恳请您慈悲,让我们恢复原来的形貌,穿上天界的服饰。’ 佛陀告诉众魔:‘暂且等待片刻!文殊师利菩萨即将到来,他会解除你们的这些苦难。’ 这时,文殊菩萨安详地缓缓而来,与无数的天子等,以及百千那由他(那由他:数量单位,表示极大的数目)眷属围绕,还有不可计数的诸天、龙、鬼神、阿修罗(阿修罗:一种神道生物)、迦楼罗(迦楼罗:一种神鸟)、紧那罗(紧那罗:一种天神)、摩睺罗伽(摩睺罗伽:一种天神),以及亿百兆载无量的菩萨,数量无限,前后引导跟随,奏响百千种乐器,降下各种名香,以及青莲、红莲、黄莲、白莲等清净庄严的鲜花,展现出无上的威德变化,见到的人无不欢喜。他们一同前往佛陀所在之处,向佛陀顶礼,绕佛三圈,然后退坐在一旁。 这时,世尊告诉文殊菩萨:‘你应当正受此定,以降伏毁坏的魔,进入三昧!’ 文殊菩萨对佛说:‘我当遵从教诲。’ 世尊又问:‘以何种方便,才能从如来这里听受此定?又需要多久才能成就此三昧?’ 文殊菩萨回答说:‘是的,大圣!我未发无上正真道意时,听到此定的名字,立刻就成就了此三昧!’ 又问文殊菩萨:‘你从哪里听闻此三昧定?那位如来的名号是什么?’ 文殊菩萨对佛说:‘在过去久远世时,超越了恒河沙数不可计数阿僧祇劫(阿僧祇劫:极长的时间单位),那时有一尊佛,号为意华香如来(意华香如来:佛名)。’

English version: 'Upon hearing the name of Manjushri, we immediately feel fear, cannot find peace, and are afraid of losing our lives.' The Buddha told the demons, 'As you have said, the beings benefited by hundreds of thousands of millions of Buddhas cannot compare to those enlightened by Manjushri, who guides countless beings to liberation. Why is this so? You have not heard the names of the merits of hundreds of thousands of millions of Buddhas, and even when encountering suffering, you harbor fear. However, the transformations brought about by Manjushri are far more profound and beneficial.' The demons said to the Buddha, 'We are ashamed of these weak and aged bodies. Now, we take refuge in the World Honored One and beg for your compassion to restore our original forms and to wear our heavenly garments.' The Buddha told the demons, 'Wait a moment! Manjushri will arrive soon, and he will relieve you of these sufferings.' At that moment, Manjushri arrived peacefully and slowly, surrounded by countless celestial beings and hundreds of thousands of nayutas (nayuta: a unit of large numbers) of attendants, as well as countless devas, dragons, ghosts, asuras (asura: a type of demigod), garudas (garuda: a mythical bird), kinnaras (kinnara: a celestial musician), mahoragas (mahoraga: a serpent deity), and hundreds of millions of trillions of countless bodhisattvas. Their numbers were infinite, leading and following, playing hundreds of thousands of musical instruments, raining down various fragrant scents, and pure and adorned flowers such as blue lotuses, red lotuses, yellow lotuses, and white lotuses, displaying boundless majestic transformations. All who saw them were filled with joy. They all went to where the Buddha was, bowed at his feet, circumambulated him three times, and then retreated to sit on one side. At this time, the World Honored One said to Manjushri, 'You should rightly receive this samadhi to subdue and destroy the demons, and enter into samadhi!' Manjushri said to the Buddha, 'I shall follow your teachings.' The World Honored One then asked, 'By what means can one receive this samadhi from the Tathagata? And how long does it take to achieve this samadhi?' Manjushri replied, 'Yes, Great Sage! When I had not yet generated the intention for the unsurpassed, true, and right path, upon hearing the name of this samadhi, I immediately achieved this samadhi!' Then he asked Manjushri, 'From whom did you hear of this samadhi? What is the name of that Tathagata?' Manjushri said to the Buddha, 'In the distant past, countless kalpas (kalpa: an extremely long period of time) beyond the sands of the Ganges River, there was a Buddha named Intent Flower Fragrance Tathagata (Intent Flower Fragrance Tathagata: name of a Buddha).' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
