English version Today, among the trees, the light of the sun is hidden and does not appear. The Buddha, among the assembly of monks, is like the full moon, radiant and complete. When the world's hero (referring to the Buddha) speaks the Dharma, people no longer see anything else. The Buddha, among the assembly of monks, is like sitting atop Mount Sumeru. The World Honored One no longer enjoys going in and out of the city. He roars the Dharma like a lion to the heavens and the world, proclaiming the principles of emptiness and no-self. Everything can no longer be obtained, hearing this great sound. Apart from me, there is no me, praising and singing the Dharma of emptiness. Now the World Honored One is about to enter Nirvana, lying ill among the trees. At that time, after the boy spoke this verse, ten million people in the great city of Varanasi simultaneously raised their voices in praise, saying, 'This is unprecedented! This young boy actually possesses such profound wisdom, understanding, the light of wisdom, the purity of wisdom, and the loftiness of wisdom, speaking such excellent verses. He was born with the wisdom of forbearance, inclined towards the skillful means of wisdom. His realm is difficult to reach, it is unprecedented. His body has not yet grown, yet he has such great power. It is like seeing the Tathagata's perfect enlightenment with one's own eyes. May our wisdom be like this.' The boy said, 'Everyone! If you truly wish to obtain such wisdom, you should aspire to have wisdom like that of the Buddha. This wisdom is subtle and cannot be combined, it is peaceful and incomparable, free from all attachments, lofty and without flaw, capable of accomplishing the root of all good dharmas. All Buddhas possess fearless power, standing on great compassion and great pity. Everyone! You should aspire to obtain this wisdom. Now, I will join with you all in generating the aspiration for unsurpassed, true, and perfect enlightenment.' At that time, the assembly all generated the aspiration for unsurpassed, true, and perfect enlightenment. Immediately, the Dharma was preached to them, and they all reached the state of non-retrogression, achieving unsurpassed, true, and perfect enlightenment. 'Everyone has already generated the aspiration for the great path, so you can all go together to see the Tathagata, the unattached, the perfectly enlightened Buddha.' Thereupon, the boy, along with his parents and ten million people, surrounded by countless billions of gods, dragons, ghosts, Gandharvas (celestial musicians), Asuras (warrior gods), Garudas (golden-winged birds), Kinnaras (celestial singers), and Mahoragas (great serpent gods), went to the place where the hero was born, and arrived at the place where the Buddha was. At that time, the Buddha was lying on his right side on the lion's bed. At that time, in the north, at a distance of 640 million billion Buddha lands, there was a Buddha --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

,号觉迹如来,今现在说法。其世界名华迹。彼界及树华实,昼夜常出觉华行之音。诸天龙鬼神、揵沓和、阿须伦、迦留罗、真陀罗、摩睺勒其闻音者,皆立觉迹之道行。彼如来有是德,其有人见觉迹行光明者,皆得不退转无上正真道。彼如来本愿之所致。佛语阿难:“觉迹如来华迹世界无求二道者,亦不教人求,亦不为弟子缘觉之乘也,但学大乘亦教劝人。”佛言:“觉迹如来作佛已来六十万四千劫,无弟子缘觉众,唯有菩萨众。譬如转轮圣王其子众多,以子为臣、子为门监、子为侍者。觉迹如来国亦如是,唯以诸菩萨为辅弼、以诸菩萨为元首、以诸菩萨为珍宝。以是故其佛国诸菩萨充满具足为佛境界。阿难!觉迹如来世界所有丰殖炽盛安隐快乐,菩萨辐凑周遍清净无不神通者也。以诸金刚为财物,合会所闻闻无疑结,其会所闻皆精进行,以法意会皆勤力行,勉修定意一切尊习,诸总持门积于智慧平等之要。彼有菩萨名神通华,忽迁神命生阎浮提维耶离大城中,为师子主兵臣作子。适生便结加趺坐说此偈言: “于释释中尊, 善说上妙法, 度脱亿亿人, 正觉为在不? 法意所随起, 其意不可得, 三界无与等, 正觉为在不? 无世尊无色, 于人无所比, 无有与等者, 明眼 现代汉语译本:号为觉迹如来(觉悟的踪迹),现在正在说法。他的世界名为华迹(花朵的踪迹)。那个世界以及树木花朵果实,日夜都发出觉悟之花行进的声音。诸天、龙、鬼神、乾闼婆(天上的乐神)、阿修罗(非天神)、迦楼罗(金翅鸟)、紧那罗(歌神)、摩睺罗伽(大蟒神),听到这些声音的人,都立于觉悟的踪迹之道而行。那位如来有这样的功德,如果有人见到觉迹之光明的行迹,都能得到不退转的无上正真之道。这是那位如来本愿所致。佛告诉阿难:‘觉迹如来的华迹世界没有寻求二乘道的人,也不教人寻求,也不为弟子缘觉的乘法,只学习大乘,也教导劝勉他人。’佛说:‘觉迹如来成佛以来六十万四千劫,没有弟子缘觉众,只有菩萨众。譬如转轮圣王,他的儿子众多,让儿子做大臣、做门监、做侍者。觉迹如来的国度也是这样,只以诸菩萨为辅弼、以诸菩萨为首领、以诸菩萨为珍宝。因此,他的佛国诸菩萨充满具足,成为佛的境界。阿难!觉迹如来的世界所有丰饶繁盛、安稳快乐,菩萨云集周遍,清净无不具足神通。他们以金刚为财物,聚集所闻,闻而无疑,所闻皆精进修行,以法意会,都勤勉力行,努力修习定意,一切都尊崇学习,诸总持门积累智慧的平等要义。’那里有一位菩萨名叫神通华,忽然舍弃神命,转生到阎浮提(我们所居住的世界)的维耶离大城中,成为师子主兵臣的儿子。刚出生就结跏趺坐,说了这首偈语: ‘在释迦(释迦牟尼)之中最尊贵,善说最上妙的法,度脱亿亿人,正觉(完全的觉悟)是否在此?法意所随而起,其意不可得,三界(欲界、色界、无色界)没有能与之相比的,正觉是否在此?无世尊无色,在人中无可比拟,没有能与之相等者,明眼(有智慧的眼睛)是否在此?’

English version: The Tathagata (Buddha) is named Jueji (Traces of Awakening), and he is now preaching the Dharma. His world is named Huaji (Traces of Flowers). That world, as well as the trees, flowers, and fruits, constantly emit the sound of the awakening flower's path day and night. All the devas (gods), nagas (dragons), yakshas (nature spirits), gandharvas (celestial musicians), asuras (demigods), garudas (mythical birds), kinnaras (celestial musicians), and mahoragas (serpent deities), who hear these sounds, all establish themselves on the path of the traces of awakening. That Tathagata has such merit that if anyone sees the traces of the light of awakening, they will all attain the irreversible, supreme, and true path of enlightenment. This is due to the original vows of that Tathagata. The Buddha told Ananda, 'In the Huaji world of the Tathagata Jueji, there are no seekers of the two vehicles (Shravakayana and Pratyekabuddhayana), nor does he teach others to seek them. He does not teach the vehicle of disciples and Pratyekabuddhas, but only the Mahayana (Great Vehicle), and he also teaches and encourages others.' The Buddha said, 'Since the Tathagata Jueji attained Buddhahood, sixty-four hundred thousand kalpas (eons) have passed, and there have been no disciples who are Pratyekabuddhas, only Bodhisattvas. It is like a Chakravartin (universal monarch) who has many sons, and he makes his sons ministers, gatekeepers, and attendants. The country of the Tathagata Jueji is also like this, with only Bodhisattvas as his assistants, Bodhisattvas as his leaders, and Bodhisattvas as his treasures. Therefore, his Buddha-land is filled with Bodhisattvas, who are complete and perfect, and become the realm of the Buddha. Ananda! The world of the Tathagata Jueji is abundant, prosperous, peaceful, and joyful. Bodhisattvas gather everywhere, and they are pure and possess all kinds of supernatural powers. They use vajra (diamond) as their wealth, gather what they have heard, hear without doubt, and all that they hear is practiced diligently. They understand the meaning of the Dharma, and they all strive diligently, diligently cultivate samadhi (meditative concentration), and all respect and learn, and accumulate the essential meaning of equality of wisdom through all the dharani (mantras).’ There was a Bodhisattva named Shentonghua (Flower of Supernatural Power), who suddenly abandoned his divine life and was reborn in the great city of Viyali in Jambudvipa (the world we live in), as the son of the chief military minister. As soon as he was born, he sat in the lotus position and spoke this verse: ‘Among the Shakyas (Shakyamuni), the most honored one, who skillfully speaks the most wonderful Dharma, liberating billions of people, is the Samyak-sambuddha (perfectly enlightened one) here? The meaning of the Dharma arises from what it follows, its meaning cannot be obtained, and there is nothing in the three realms (desire realm, form realm, formless realm) that can compare to it, is the Samyak-sambuddha here? The World Honored One is without form, incomparable among humans, and there is no one equal to him, is the clear-eyed one here?’ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 为在不? 精进度无极, 一心禅三昧, 智慧譬如海, 正觉为在不?”

于是觉迹如来化作天象童子说偈言: “正觉住一劫, 当复过是数, 正觉后故在, 可住自娱乐。 童子且习欲, 是为大王家, 鼓乐弦清曲, 箫成以自娱。” 尔时童子以天意想说偈,报觉迹如来言: “其有随欲者, 此人则为痴, 不了解正觉, 及佛之教诫。 猪马及骆驼, 狐狼之与驴, 是辈为习欲, 非佛子所行。 盲聋无所知, 喑哑不能言, 是辈为习欲, 非佛子所行。 飞蛾蜜蜂蝇, 马畜不自知, 是辈为习欲, 非佛子所行。 假使阎浮利, 合满其中火, 宁堕于其中, 不习于欲事。 乐欲以为上, 于欲何足习, 其有称誉欲, 是为不知法。 不以贪欲故, 被蒙见识别, 佛化来问我, 我谓为是天。 我从佛所闻, 法王说如见, 今日夜半时, 世尊当泥洹。 我当往见佛, 神通无起灭, 欲往可共俱, 诣于尊泥洹。 觉迹天中天, 人中尊说尔, 得善度无极, 以光导御人。 于百千劫中, 所建功德事, 不如泥洹曰, 世尊之所度。 “(佛陀的)正觉(Samadhi,指通过禅定获得的智慧)是否还在? (佛陀)精进的程度没有止境,一心专注于禅定三昧(Samadhi,指高度集中的禅定状态), 智慧如同大海般深广,正觉(Samadhi)是否还在?” 于是,觉迹如来(Buddha's name,佛名)化作天象童子,说偈语道: “正觉(Samadhi)可以住世一劫(Kalpa,佛教时间单位,指极长的时间),甚至会超过这个时间, 正觉(Samadhi)之后仍然存在,可以安住其中自得其乐。 童子啊,你还是先学习享乐吧,这里是大王之家, 敲击鼓乐,弹奏清扬的乐曲,吹奏箫管来娱乐自己。” 这时,童子以天上的想法说偈语,回答觉迹如来(Buddha's name,佛名)说: “那些随顺欲望的人,是愚痴的, 他们不了解正觉(Samadhi),以及佛陀的教诲。 猪、马、骆驼,狐狸、狼和驴子, 这些众生都在追求欲望,这不是佛弟子应该做的。 盲人、聋人什么都不知道,哑巴不能说话, 这些众生都在追求欲望,这不是佛弟子应该做的。 飞蛾、蜜蜂、苍蝇,以及不自知的牲畜, 这些众生都在追求欲望,这不是佛弟子应该做的。 即使整个阎浮提(Jambudvipa,指我们所居住的世界)都充满火焰, 我宁愿堕入其中,也不会去追求欲望。 把享乐当作至上,对于欲望又有什么可学习的呢? 那些称赞欲望的人,是不了解佛法的。 我不会因为贪欲而蒙蔽自己的见识, 佛陀化身来问我,我以为是天人。 我从佛陀那里听闻,法王(Dharmaraja,指佛陀)所说如亲眼所见, 今天夜半时分,世尊(Bhagavan,指佛陀)将要入涅槃(Nirvana,指解脱生死的状态)。 我将前去拜见佛陀,他的神通没有生灭, 想去的人可以一起去,前往尊贵的涅槃(Nirvana)。 觉迹(Buddha's name,佛名)是天中之天,人中之尊, 他获得了无上的善,用光明引导人们。 在百千劫(Kalpa,佛教时间单位,指极长的时间)中所建立的功德, 都不如世尊(Bhagavan,指佛陀)入涅槃(Nirvana)时所度化的众生。

"Is the Right Enlightenment (Samadhi) still present? His diligence is boundless, his mind focused on the Samadhi (a state of deep meditative concentration), His wisdom is like the vast ocean, is the Right Enlightenment (Samadhi) still present?" Then, the Tathagata (Buddha's name) Jueji transformed into a celestial boy and spoke in verse: "The Right Enlightenment (Samadhi) can abide for a kalpa (an extremely long period of time), and even beyond that, The Right Enlightenment (Samadhi) remains after, one can dwell in it and enjoy oneself. Boy, you should first learn to indulge in pleasures, this is the house of the great king, Beat the drums, play clear melodies, and play the flute to entertain yourself." At that time, the boy, with celestial thoughts, spoke in verse, replying to the Tathagata (Buddha's name) Jueji: "Those who follow desires are foolish, They do not understand the Right Enlightenment (Samadhi), nor the Buddha's teachings. Pigs, horses, camels, foxes, wolves, and donkeys, These beings pursue desires, which is not what a disciple of the Buddha should do. The blind and deaf know nothing, the mute cannot speak, These beings pursue desires, which is not what a disciple of the Buddha should do. Moths, bees, flies, and livestock that do not know themselves, These beings pursue desires, which is not what a disciple of the Buddha should do. Even if the entire Jambudvipa (the world we live in) were filled with fire, I would rather fall into it than pursue desires. To regard pleasure as supreme, what is there to learn about desires? Those who praise desires do not understand the Dharma (Buddhist teachings). I will not let greed cloud my judgment, The Buddha transformed to ask me, I thought it was a celestial being. I heard from the Buddha, the Dharmaraja (the Buddha) speaks as if seen with one's own eyes, Tonight at midnight, the Bhagavan (the Buddha) will enter Nirvana (the state of liberation from the cycle of death and rebirth). I will go to see the Buddha, whose spiritual powers have no beginning or end, Those who wish to go can come together, to the honored Nirvana. Jueji (Buddha's name) is the highest among the heavens, the most honored among men, He has attained boundless goodness, guiding people with his light. The merits established in hundreds of thousands of kalpas (an extremely long period of time), Are not as great as the beings liberated by the Bhagavan (the Buddha) when he enters Nirvana." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 矜覆一切者, 是世为拥护, 今佛当泥洹, 众生复勤苦。 佛为一切眼, 今日当泥洹, 是世当更遇, 值于大闇冥。 医王灭众病, 今日当泥洹, 已无人中尊, 世间甚勤苦。 能断一切疑, 今日当泥洹, 是世狐疑者, 当复转盛火。 佛除淫怒痴, 今日当泥洹, 是世当复值, 三火之兴炽。 为一切所敬, 天人所钦奉, 今没是树间, 众庶永无见。” 四童品第三
