佛言：“阿难！善哉，善哉！如汝所说。如来现在实无如是诸恶比丘围绕如来佛为说法。”佛言：“阿难！未来之世，多有在家白衣得生天上，多有出家之人堕于地狱、饿鬼、畜生。”复告阿难：“善恶之业终不败亡。我于过去曾作商主，入于大海活多人故手杀一人，以是业缘乃至成佛，犹尚身受金锵之报。” 尔时，帝释天王与三十三天众，疾至佛所，顶礼佛足却住一面。炎摩天王与百万亿炎摩天众，疾至佛所，顶礼佛足却坐一面。删兜率陀天王与百万亿删兜率陀天众，疾至佛所顶礼佛足却坐一面。化乐天王与百万亿化乐天众，疾至佛所，顶礼佛足却坐一面。他化自在天王与百万亿他化自在天众，疾至佛所，顶礼佛足却坐一面。尔时，毗摩质多罗阿修罗王与百万亿阿修罗众，疾至佛所，顶礼佛足却坐一面。尔时，娑伽罗龙王与百万亿龙众，疾至佛所顶礼佛足却坐一面。皆于一念一刹那一无虚律多顷，诸天、阿修罗、迦楼罗、乾闼婆、紧陀罗、摩睺罗伽等，于虚空中遍满十二由旬，皆为最后见如来故。 尔时，佛告阿难：“此道场菩提树最胜殊妙，过去诸佛皆于此处，证阿耨多罗三藐三菩提。未来诸佛亦于此处，得阿耨多罗三藐三菩提。现在 现代汉语译本： ‘如来会说法吗？’ 阿难回答说：‘没有这样的事。’ 佛说：‘阿难！说得好，说得好！正如你所说。如来现在确实没有被这些恶劣的比丘围绕着，如来佛也不会为他们说法。’佛说：‘阿难！未来的世间，会有很多在家的白衣人得以往生天上，也会有很多出家之人堕入地狱、饿鬼、畜生道。’又告诉阿难：‘善恶的业报最终不会消失。我过去曾经做过商队的首领，为了救活很多人而亲手杀了一个人，因为这个业缘，乃至成佛，仍然要承受金锵的果报。’ 当时，帝释天王和三十三天的大众，迅速来到佛的住所，顶礼佛足后退到一旁站立。炎摩天王和百万亿炎摩天众，迅速来到佛的住所，顶礼佛足后退到一旁坐下。删兜率陀天王和百万亿删兜率陀天众，迅速来到佛的住所，顶礼佛足后退到一旁坐下。化乐天王和百万亿化乐天众，迅速来到佛的住所，顶礼佛足后退到一旁坐下。他化自在天王和百万亿他化自在天众，迅速来到佛的住所，顶礼佛足后退到一旁坐下。当时，毗摩质多罗（Vimacitara）阿修罗王和百万亿阿修罗众，迅速来到佛的住所，顶礼佛足后退到一旁坐下。当时，娑伽罗（Sagara）龙王和百万亿龙众，迅速来到佛的住所，顶礼佛足后退到一旁坐下。在极短的时间内，诸天、阿修罗、迦楼罗（Garuda）、乾闼婆（Gandharva）、紧陀罗（Kinnara）、摩睺罗伽（Mahoraga）等，在虚空中遍布十二由旬，都是为了最后一次见到如来。 当时，佛告诉阿难：‘这个道场的菩提树是最殊胜美妙的，过去诸佛都是在这里证得阿耨多罗三藐三菩提（Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi，无上正等正觉）。未来诸佛也都会在这里，证得阿耨多罗三藐三菩提。现在’

English version: 'Does the Tathagata preach the Dharma?' Ananda replied, 'There is no such thing.' The Buddha said, 'Ananda! Well said, well said! As you have said. The Tathagata is not now surrounded by these evil Bhikkhus, nor does the Tathagata Buddha preach the Dharma for them.' The Buddha said, 'Ananda! In the future world, many lay white-clothed people will be reborn in the heavens, and many who have left home will fall into hell, hungry ghosts, and animals.' He further told Ananda, 'The karma of good and evil will never perish. In the past, I was once the leader of a merchant caravan, and in order to save many people, I personally killed one person. Because of this karmic connection, even after becoming a Buddha, I still have to endure the retribution of the golden staff.' At that time, King Sakra (Indra) and the assembly of the Thirty-three Heavens quickly arrived at the Buddha's place, bowed at the Buddha's feet, and stood to one side. King Yama and a million billion Yama heavenly beings quickly arrived at the Buddha's place, bowed at the Buddha's feet, and sat to one side. King Santusita and a million billion Santusita heavenly beings quickly arrived at the Buddha's place, bowed at the Buddha's feet, and sat to one side. King Sunirmita and a million billion Sunirmita heavenly beings quickly arrived at the Buddha's place, bowed at the Buddha's feet, and sat to one side. King Paranirmita-vasavartin and a million billion Paranirmita-vasavartin heavenly beings quickly arrived at the Buddha's place, bowed at the Buddha's feet, and sat to one side. At that time, King Vimacitara (Vimacitara) of the Asuras and a million billion Asura beings quickly arrived at the Buddha's place, bowed at the Buddha's feet, and sat to one side. At that time, King Sagara (Sagara) of the Nagas and a million billion Naga beings quickly arrived at the Buddha's place, bowed at the Buddha's feet, and sat to one side. In an instant, the gods, Asuras, Garudas (Garuda), Gandharvas (Gandharva), Kinnaras (Kinnara), Mahoragas (Mahoraga), and others filled the space for twelve yojanas, all for the sake of seeing the Tathagata for the last time. At that time, the Buddha said to Ananda, 'This Bodhi tree in this Bodhimanda is the most excellent and wonderful. All the Buddhas of the past attained Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi, unsurpassed perfect enlightenment) here. All the Buddhas of the future will also attain Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi here. Now' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

我身又于此处，破十八亿魔军得阿耨多罗三藐三菩提。如是，阿难！我今不久当般涅槃。复次，阿难！蓝比尼园最胜最妙，是佛如来最后生处。复次，阿难！摩耶夫人是大福德，乃能生出人中之宝。复次，阿难！净饭国王是大福德，乃作一切诸众生中最胜宝父。复次，阿难！毗舍离城比嗜离国最胜最妙，王舍大城摩伽陀国最胜最妙，七庵婆罗树处亦妙，瞿耽摩若尼俱陀树处亦胜亦妙，裴啰多豆啰多豆啰尼憩处亦胜亦妙；力士生地，乃是过去转轮圣王解宝天冠，在此安置辟支佛塔，是我焚身最胜妙地。复次，阿难！此阎浮提最胜好处，众生于中乐贪寿命，是故我今于此涅槃。我于三阿僧祇劫所集之法不久当灭。” 尔时，世尊慰喻阿难，令心欢喜除其愁刺。付嘱法已，告阿难言：“吾今与汝可往诸国。”阿难唯然受如来教。 尔时世尊至波波城，所应度者皆悉度讫。复往诸国教化无量百亿那由他众生，皆成就已。尔时，阿难随从佛行，如是次第至摩伽陀国道场菩提之树，世尊绕树作六匝已，即于树下结加趺坐。佛告阿难：“如来不久后十五日当般涅槃。”尔时，诸天、阿修罗、迦楼罗、乾闼婆、紧那罗、摩睺罗伽等，作如是念：“如来不久于十五日当般涅槃，我等皆当最后礼拜。” 佛告阿难：“莫 现代汉语译本：我（佛陀）又在这里，破除了十八亿魔军，证得了阿耨多罗三藐三菩提（无上正等正觉）。阿难！是这样的，我如今不久将要般涅槃（入灭）。再者，阿难！蓝毗尼园是最殊胜最美好的地方，是佛陀如来最后降生之处。再者，阿难！摩耶夫人（佛陀的生母）是大福德之人，才能生出人中之宝（佛陀）。再者，阿难！净饭国王（佛陀的父亲）是大福德之人，才能成为一切众生中最殊胜的宝父。再者，阿难！毗舍离城（古印度城市）比嗜离国（古印度国家）最殊胜最美好，王舍大城（古印度城市）摩伽陀国（古印度国家）最殊胜最美好，七庵婆罗树处也很美好，瞿昙摩若尼俱陀树处也殊胜美好，裴啰多豆啰多豆啰尼憩处也殊胜美好；力士生地，是过去转轮圣王（拥有统治世界的理想君主）解下宝天冠，在此安置辟支佛塔（独觉佛的塔），是我焚身最殊胜美好的地方。再者，阿难！这阎浮提（我们所居住的世界）是最殊胜美好的地方，众生在这里贪恋寿命，因此我如今在这里涅槃。我于三阿僧祇劫（极长的时间单位）所积累的佛法不久将要灭尽。” 当时，世尊安慰阿难，使他内心欢喜，消除他的忧愁。嘱咐完佛法后，告诉阿难说：‘我如今可以和你一起前往各国。’阿难恭敬地接受了如来的教诲。 当时，世尊到达波波城（古印度城市），所有应该被度化的人都已度化完毕。又前往各国教化了无量百亿那由他（极大的数字）的众生，都已成就。当时，阿难跟随佛陀行走，这样依次到达摩伽陀国（古印度国家）道场菩提树下，世尊绕树走了六圈后，就在树下结跏趺坐。佛陀告诉阿难：‘如来不久后十五天将要般涅槃。’当时，诸天、阿修罗（非天神）、迦楼罗（金翅鸟）、乾闼婆（天乐神）、紧那罗（歌神）、摩睺罗伽（大蟒神）等，都这样想：‘如来不久后十五天将要般涅槃，我们都应当最后礼拜。’ 佛陀告诉阿难：‘不要这样想。’

English version: I (the Buddha), again here, having broken through eighteen billion demon armies, attained Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (Unsurpassed Perfect Enlightenment). Thus, Ananda! It is so, I will soon enter Parinirvana (final passing away). Furthermore, Ananda! Lumbini Garden is the most supreme and wonderful place, it is the final birthplace of the Tathagata (Buddha). Furthermore, Ananda! Maya (Buddha's mother) was of great merit, that she was able to give birth to the treasure among men (Buddha). Furthermore, Ananda! King Suddhodana (Buddha's father) was of great merit, that he became the most supreme and precious father among all beings. Furthermore, Ananda! The city of Vaishali (ancient Indian city) is the most supreme and wonderful in the country of Vriji (ancient Indian state), the great city of Rajgir (ancient Indian city) in the country of Magadha (ancient Indian state) is the most supreme and wonderful, the place of the seven mango trees is also wonderful, the place of the Gautama Nyagrodha tree is also supreme and wonderful, the resting place of the Bhadra-todra-todra-ni is also supreme and wonderful; the birthplace of the strongman, where the past Chakravartin King (ideal ruler of the world) removed his jeweled crown, and placed a Pratyekabuddha stupa (stupa of a solitary Buddha), is the most supreme and wonderful place where I will burn my body. Furthermore, Ananda! This Jambudvipa (the world we live in) is the most supreme and wonderful place, beings here are attached to life, therefore I will enter Nirvana here. The Dharma that I have accumulated over three Asankhyeya kalpas (extremely long time units) will soon be extinguished.’ At that time, the World Honored One comforted Ananda, making his heart joyful and removing his sorrow. Having entrusted the Dharma, he said to Ananda, ‘I can now go with you to various countries.’ Ananda respectfully accepted the Tathagata's teachings. At that time, the World Honored One arrived at the city of Pava (ancient Indian city), and all those who should be converted were converted. He then went to various countries and taught countless billions of nayutas (extremely large numbers) of beings, and all were accomplished. At that time, Ananda followed the Buddha, and in this order, they arrived at the Bodhi tree in the Magadha country (ancient Indian state). The World Honored One walked around the tree six times, and then sat in full lotus posture under the tree. The Buddha said to Ananda, ‘The Tathagata will enter Parinirvana in fifteen days.’ At that time, the Devas (gods), Asuras (demigods), Garudas (mythical birds), Gandharvas (celestial musicians), Kinnaras (mythical beings), and Mahoragas (great serpents), all thought, ‘The Tathagata will enter Parinirvana in fifteen days, we should all pay our final respects.’ The Buddha said to Ananda, ‘Do not think like that.’ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
