大正藏第 12 册 No. 0383 摩诃摩耶经   No. 383   摩诃摩耶经卷上(一名佛升忉利天为母说法)   箫齐沙门释昙景译   如是我闻:   一时佛在忉利天欢喜园中波利质多罗树下三月安居,与大比丘众一千二百五十人俱,又与无量百千天、龙、夜叉、乾闼婆、阿修罗、迦楼罗、紧那罗、摩睺罗伽、人及非人,并余无数比丘、比丘尼、优婆塞、优婆夷前后围绕。   尔时,如来结加趺坐,身毛孔中放千光明,普照三千大千世界。一一光中有千莲花,其一莲花有千化佛结加趺坐,如释迦牟尼。   当于尔时,日、月、星辰所有威光隐蔽不现,皆悉来入如来光中,令波利质多罗树如真金色。譬如虚空净无云翳,日月威光极为明显;如来在于忉利天上所放光明亦复如是,倍更照耀不可譬类。是时,日、月、星辰诸天子等见此相已,其心战怖不能自安,不知何缘而有斯事。   尔时,佛告文殊师利童子:“汝诣母所,道我在此,愿母暂屈礼敬三宝,并以此偈向母说之。”   尔时,世尊而说偈言: “释迦大仙师,  成就一切智,  在于阎浮提,  犹如千眼天,  殷勤情渴仰,  久欲觐慈颜。  本昔王宫中,  生我七日已,  神升受 现代汉语译本 如是我闻: 一时,佛在忉利天(Trayastrimsa,欲界六天之一,位于须弥山顶)的欢喜园中,在波利质多罗树(Pārijāta,天界之树)下安居三个月。当时,与佛同行的有大比丘众一千二百五十人,还有无量百千的天人、龙、夜叉(Yaksa,守护神)、乾闼婆(Gandharva,天乐神)、阿修罗(Asura,非天神)、迦楼罗(Garuda,金翅鸟神)、紧那罗(Kinnara,歌神)、摩睺罗伽(Mahoraga,大蟒神)、人以及非人等,还有无数的比丘、比丘尼、优婆塞(Upasaka,男居士)、优婆夷(Upasika,女居士)前后围绕。 那时,如来结跏趺坐,从身上的毛孔中放出千道光明,普照三千大千世界。每一道光明中都有一千朵莲花,每一朵莲花上都有一千尊化佛结跏趺坐,如同释迦牟尼佛。 当时,太阳、月亮、星辰的所有光芒都隐蔽不现,全部融入如来的光明之中,使得波利质多罗树如同真正的金色。譬如虚空清净没有云彩遮蔽,日月的光芒极为明显;如来在忉利天上所放的光明也是如此,更加照耀,无法比拟。这时,太阳、月亮、星辰等诸天子看到这种景象后,心中战栗恐惧,不能自安,不知道为什么会发生这样的事情。 这时,佛告诉文殊师利童子(Manjusri,智慧的象征)说:‘你到我母亲那里去,告诉她我在这里,希望她能暂时屈尊礼敬三宝,并把这首偈颂告诉她。’ 当时,世尊说了这首偈颂: ‘释迦大仙师,成就一切智, 在于阎浮提(Jambudvipa,我们所居住的世界),犹如千眼天(Indra,帝释天), 殷勤情渴仰,久欲觐慈颜。 本昔王宫中,生我七日已, 神升受’

English version Thus have I heard: At one time, the Buddha was dwelling in the Joyful Garden in Trayastrimsa (one of the six heavens of the desire realm, located on the summit of Mount Sumeru), under the Pārijāta tree (a celestial tree), observing the three-month rainy season retreat. At that time, accompanying the Buddha were a great assembly of twelve hundred and fifty Bhikshus (monks), as well as countless hundreds of thousands of Devas (gods), Nagas (dragons), Yakshas (guardian spirits), Gandharvas (celestial musicians), Asuras (demigods), Garudas (mythical birds), Kinnaras (celestial musicians), Mahoragas (great serpents), humans, and non-humans, along with countless Bhikshus, Bhikshunis (nuns), Upasakas (male lay devotees), and Upasikas (female lay devotees) surrounding him. Then, the Tathagata sat in full lotus posture, emitting a thousand rays of light from the pores of his body, illuminating the three thousand great thousand worlds. Within each ray of light were a thousand lotus flowers, and upon each lotus flower sat a thousand manifested Buddhas in full lotus posture, like Shakyamuni Buddha. At that time, the brilliance of the sun, moon, and stars was concealed and did not appear, all merging into the light of the Tathagata, making the Pārijāta tree appear like true gold. Just as the sky is clear and without clouds, and the light of the sun and moon is extremely bright, so too was the light emitted by the Tathagata in Trayastrimsa, shining even more brilliantly, beyond comparison. At this time, the Devas of the sun, moon, and stars, upon seeing this phenomenon, were trembling with fear and could not find peace, not knowing why such a thing had occurred. Then, the Buddha said to the youth Manjusri (symbol of wisdom): ‘Go to my mother and tell her that I am here, and that I wish she would temporarily condescend to pay homage to the Three Jewels, and also recite this verse to her.’ At that time, the World Honored One spoke this verse: ‘Shakya, the great sage, has attained all wisdom, Is in Jambudvipa (the world we inhabit), like the thousand-eyed Deva (Indra), With earnest longing, I have long desired to see your compassionate face. In the former royal palace, seven days after my birth, My spirit ascended to receive’ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 天福,  姨母长乳养,  致得成正觉,  应供度众生。  今故至于此,  说法报往恩,  愿母与眷属,  屈来到此处,  敬礼佛法众,  并受真净法。”

尔时,文殊师利童子受佛教敕,即便往至摩诃摩耶所,具以佛言而往白之,并诵如来所说之偈。   时摩诃摩耶闻斯语已,乳自流出,而作是言:“若审决定是我所生悉达多者,当令乳汁直至口中。”作是语已,两乳乳出——犹白莲花——而便入于如来口中。时摩诃摩耶既见此已,踊跃遍身,容色怡悦,如千叶莲花日照开荣,摩诃摩耶妙色亦尔——于时三千大千世界普皆震动,诸妙花果非时敷熟——即语文殊师利童子:“我从与佛为母子来,欢喜安乐未曾如今。譬如有人极苦饥渴,忽值甘膳食之丰乐;今我欢悦亦复如是,无复诸余杂乱念想。”说此语已,即与文殊师利童子俱趣佛所。   尔时,世尊遥见母来,内怀欣敬,举身动摇,如须弥山王及四大海鼓动之相。于时如来既见母至,便以梵音而白母言:“身所经处与苦乐俱,当修涅槃永离苦乐。”   尔时,摩诃摩耶闻佛此语,合掌低头一心思惟,长跪佛前五体投地,专精正念诸缠消伏。即于佛前以偈赞曰: “汝从无数劫,  恒饮我乳汁,  故离生、老、死,  得 现代汉语译本 天福啊,我的姨母曾以乳汁养育你, 使你最终成就正觉(samyak-saṃbodhi,无上正等正觉),成为应供(arhat,阿罗汉)并度化众生。 如今我特地来到这里,是为了宣说佛法以报答往昔的恩情, 愿我的母亲和眷属,能够屈尊来到这里, 恭敬地礼拜佛、法、僧三宝,并接受这真实清净的佛法。” 当时,文殊师利(Mañjuśrī)童子接受佛的教敕,立即前往摩诃摩耶(Mahāmāyā)所在之处,详细地转达了佛的话语,并诵读了如来所说的偈颂。 那时,摩诃摩耶听到这些话后,乳汁自然流出,并说道:‘如果确实确定他是我所生的悉达多(Siddhārtha),就应当让乳汁直接进入他的口中。’说完这话,她的两乳流出乳汁——如同白莲花一般——直接进入了如来的口中。当时,摩诃摩耶见到此情景后,全身欢喜雀跃,容颜愉悦,如同千叶莲花在阳光照耀下盛开一样,摩诃摩耶的美丽容颜也是如此——当时,三千大千世界都普遍震动,各种美妙的花果在非时节开放成熟——她立即对文殊师利童子说:‘我自从与佛结为母子以来,从未像现在这样欢喜安乐。譬如有人极度饥渴,忽然遇到丰盛的甘美膳食;我现在的欢悦也是如此,没有任何其他的杂乱念头。’说完这话,她就与文殊师利童子一同前往佛所在之处。 当时,世尊远远地看见母亲前来,内心充满欣喜和敬意,全身动摇,如同须弥山王(Sumeru)和四大海鼓动时的景象。当时,如来见到母亲到来,便用梵音对母亲说:‘身体所经历之处,与苦乐相伴,应当修习涅槃(nirvāṇa),永远脱离苦乐。’ 当时,摩诃摩耶听到佛的这些话,合掌低头,一心思维,长跪在佛前,五体投地,专心正念,各种烦恼都消除了。她立即在佛前用偈颂赞叹道: ‘你从无数劫以来,一直饮用我的乳汁, 因此得以脱离生、老、死,成就正觉。’

English version O Blessed One, my aunt nourished you with her milk, Causing you to attain perfect enlightenment (samyak-saṃbodhi), become an arhat (worthy of offerings), and liberate sentient beings. Now I have come here specifically to expound the Dharma to repay past kindness, May my mother and her family condescend to come here, Respectfully bow to the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha, and receive the true and pure Dharma.’ At that time, the youth Mañjuśrī, having received the Buddha's command, immediately went to where Mahāmāyā was, conveyed the Buddha's words in detail, and recited the verses spoken by the Tathāgata. Then, when Mahāmāyā heard these words, milk flowed naturally from her breasts, and she said, ‘If it is truly certain that he is Siddhārtha, whom I gave birth to, then let the milk go directly into his mouth.’ Having said this, milk flowed from both her breasts—like white lotuses—and entered the Tathāgata's mouth. At that time, when Mahāmāyā saw this, her whole body rejoiced, her countenance was joyful, like a thousand-petaled lotus blooming under the sun, so was the beautiful countenance of Mahāmāyā—at that time, the three thousand great thousand worlds all shook, and various wonderful flowers and fruits bloomed and ripened out of season—she immediately said to the youth Mañjuśrī, ‘Since I became the mother of the Buddha, I have never been as joyful and peaceful as I am now. It is like a person who is extremely hungry and thirsty, suddenly encountering a feast of delicious food; my joy now is also like that, without any other confused thoughts.’ Having said this, she went with the youth Mañjuśrī to where the Buddha was. At that time, the World Honored One, seeing his mother coming from afar, was filled with joy and respect, his whole body trembled, like the Sumeru mountain king and the four great oceans when they are stirred. At that time, when the Tathāgata saw his mother arrive, he spoke to her in a Brahma voice, ‘Wherever the body goes, it is accompanied by suffering and joy, one should cultivate nirvana (liberation) and forever be free from suffering and joy.’ At that time, Mahāmāyā, hearing these words of the Buddha, folded her palms, lowered her head, and meditated with one mind, knelt before the Buddha, prostrated herself with her five limbs touching the ground, and with focused mindfulness, all her afflictions were subdued. She immediately praised the Buddha with verses: ‘From countless kalpas, you have always drunk my milk, Therefore, you have escaped birth, old age, and death, and attained perfect enlightenment.’ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 成无上道,  宜应报恩养,  断我三毒本。  归命大丈夫,  无贪、惠施者;  归命调御士,  最上无能过;  归命天人师,  永离痴、爱缚。  日、夜各三时,  念想不断绝,  稽首头面礼,  无上大法王。  今于汝福田,  欲长功德芽,  唯愿施慈悲,  速令成妙果。  久有此大志,  故生大王宫,  巨身紫金色,  光明照十方,  面貌悉圆净,  犹如秋满月。”

尔时,世尊即白母言:“谛听谛听,善思念之。初中后善其义深远,其语巧妙纯一无杂,具足清白梵行之相。”   摩诃摩耶闻此语已,佛神力故,即识宿命;并以善根纯熟时故,破八十亿烟燃之结,得须陀洹果。即起合掌而白佛言:“生死牢狱已证解脱。”   时会大众闻此语已,异口同音而作是言:“愿一切众生皆得解脱,如今现在摩诃摩耶。”   时摩诃摩耶而白佛言:“譬如猛火烧于热铁,若有触者身心焦痛;世间生死亦复如是,所往来处皆是苦聚。凡集苦本皆由心意,随欲轻躁戏弄众生,轮转五道疾于猛风,犹如拍鞠。”   时摩诃摩耶即于佛前而自克责其心意言:“汝常何故作非利益,游六尘境而不安定,乱想牵挽无时暂停?所可缘虑皆非吉祥,何故惑我而便集彼? 现代汉语译本 成就无上之道, 应当报答养育之恩,断除我贪嗔痴三毒的根本。 归命于大丈夫(指佛陀),无贪欲、乐于布施者; 归命于调御士(指佛陀),最上无能超越者; 归命于天人师(指佛陀),永远脱离愚痴和爱欲的束缚。 日夜各三个时辰,念想佛陀不断绝, 稽首顶礼,礼敬无上大法王(指佛陀)。 如今在您的福田(指佛陀)中,想要增长功德的幼芽, 唯愿您施予慈悲,迅速令其成就美妙的果实。 我久有此宏大志向,所以才出生于大王宫中, 身躯巨大呈紫金色,光明照耀十方世界, 面容圆满清净,犹如秋天的满月。 这时,世尊(指佛陀)就对母亲说:‘仔细听,仔细听,好好地思量。初善、中善、后善,其义理深远,其言语巧妙纯一没有杂染,具足清净梵行的相貌。’ 摩诃摩耶(佛陀的母亲)听了这话后,由于佛陀的神力,立刻忆起了宿世的因缘;并且因为善根成熟的缘故,破除了八十亿烟燃之结(指烦恼),证得了须陀洹果(小乘初果)。随即起身合掌对佛陀说:‘我已经证得从生死牢狱中的解脱。’ 当时在场的大众听了这话后,异口同声地说:‘愿一切众生都能像现在的摩诃摩耶一样得到解脱。’ 这时,摩诃摩耶对佛陀说:‘譬如猛火燃烧热铁,如果有接触到的人,身心都会感到焦灼疼痛;世间的生死轮回也是如此,所往来之处都是痛苦的聚集。凡是聚集痛苦的根本都源于心意,随着欲望轻率地戏弄众生,在五道中轮转的速度比猛风还快,就像拍打皮球一样。’ 这时,摩诃摩耶就在佛陀面前自我责备自己的心意说:‘你常常为什么要做没有利益的事情,在六尘(色、声、香、味、触、法)的境界中游荡而不安宁,胡思乱想牵引着我没有片刻停歇?所思所虑的都不是吉祥的事情,为什么迷惑我而让我聚集那些不好的东西?’

English version Having achieved the unsurpassed path, One should repay the kindness of nurturing, cutting off the root of my three poisons (greed, hatred, and delusion). I take refuge in the Great Hero (referring to the Buddha), the one without greed, the giver of generosity; I take refuge in the Tamer of Beings (referring to the Buddha), the supreme one beyond compare; I take refuge in the Teacher of Gods and Humans (referring to the Buddha), forever free from the bonds of ignorance and desire. Day and night, in each of the three periods, the thought of the Buddha is never interrupted, I bow my head and face, paying homage to the unsurpassed King of Dharma (referring to the Buddha). Now, in your field of merit (referring to the Buddha), I wish to grow the sprouts of virtue, I only hope that you will bestow compassion, quickly enabling them to achieve wonderful fruition. I have long held this great aspiration, which is why I was born in the royal palace, My body is large and of a purple-golden color, with light illuminating the ten directions, My face is perfectly round and pure, like the full moon in autumn. At that time, the World Honored One (referring to the Buddha) then said to his mother: 'Listen carefully, listen carefully, and contemplate well. The beginning, middle, and end are all good, its meaning is profound and far-reaching, its words are skillful, pure, and without any impurities, possessing the characteristics of pure Brahma conduct.' After hearing these words, Mahamaya (the Buddha's mother), due to the Buddha's divine power, immediately remembered her past lives; and because her roots of goodness were ripe, she broke through the eighty billion knots of smoke and fire (referring to afflictions), and attained the fruit of Srotapanna (the first stage of Arhatship in Hinayana). She then rose, joined her palms, and said to the Buddha: 'I have already attained liberation from the prison of birth and death.' At that time, the assembly, upon hearing these words, unanimously said: 'May all sentient beings attain liberation, just like Mahamaya now.' Then, Mahamaya said to the Buddha: 'It is like a fierce fire burning hot iron; if anyone touches it, their body and mind will feel scorched and painful. The cycle of birth and death in the world is also like this, wherever one goes, it is a gathering of suffering. All the roots of suffering arise from the mind, following desires, lightly and carelessly playing with sentient beings, revolving in the five paths faster than a fierce wind, like hitting a ball.' At that time, Mahamaya, in front of the Buddha, rebuked her own mind, saying: 'Why do you always do things that are not beneficial, wandering in the realms of the six senses (sight, sound, smell, taste, touch, and thought) without peace, with chaotic thoughts pulling me without a moment's rest? What is considered and contemplated is not auspicious, why do you confuse me and make me gather those bad things?' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
