English version Therefore, this meaning is spoken. Do not harbor doubts, questioning the Buddha's supreme wisdom. With various fragrant incense, all kinds of flowers, mixed fragrances, and fine clothing, Upon hearing such scriptures, one should diligently make offerings. With peaceful food and drink, and the jeweled net of the boy Jewel Net (a Bodhisattva's name), With soft and exquisite offerings, repeatedly present them to the Tathagata (an epithet of the Buddha). At that time, the devas and humans, raised their voices loudly, The devas rained down various flowers, scattering them afar, hearing this scripture. The Buddha said to the boy Jewel Net: 'This scripture brings much peace and security, like a sick person who receives a good doctor to cure their illness, eliminating wind, cold, and heat. Bodhisattvas are the same; upon hearing the Buddha's name, they diligently advance, and the illnesses of lust, anger, and ignorance are all extinguished.' At that time, countless devas and humans gathered in the sky, raining down sandalwood incense. Countless Brahmas (lord of the form realm) and the boy, upon hearing the name of this scripture and the Tathagata's name, rejoiced and were filled with good intentions. They proclaimed with their mouths, praising the supreme: 'In the future, we shall become Bhikkhus (Buddhist monks), with strong and fearless wills. We shall proclaim this scripture in districts, cities, and towns, following the Buddha's teachings. Even if we are millions of miles away, we shall go to receive it, not considering the distance a hardship. We shall invite devas, dragons, Asuras (demigods), Gandharvas (celestial musicians), Garudas (mythical birds), Kinnaras (celestial musicians), Mahoragas (serpent deities), humans, and non-humans, to explain the meaning of the scriptures to them, filling them with the Dharma.' The devas rejoiced, scattering flowers in the sky, which fell like rain. They each praised, saying: 'The Dharma King (an epithet of the Buddha) proclaims throughout the Buddha lands with one voice, to reveal the unconditioned (Nirvana) and to have compassion for sentient beings. It pervades the Buddha lands like the sands of the Ganges River, and it is the same in the ten directions. The boy Jewel Net covers all the Buddha lands. If one sees the Great Hero (an epithet of the Buddha), one will not be lazy. The World Honored One (an epithet of the Buddha) looks upon us, explaining it separately for us. Do not doubt the Buddha's Dharma; the Tathagata is immeasurable. The Buddha's eyes are limitless, universally bestowing peace and security. The Buddha's wisdom is boundless, understanding the three times, all-knowing, the king of all dharmas. The five skandhas (form, feeling, perception, mental formations, consciousness) of the cycle of existence have no solidity, and the four elements (earth, water, fire, wind) are the same. Do not be attached to sounds, form, the feeling skandha, perception, or birth and death.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

阴,晓了是者知无有要也,其有思惟如来所说,疾得总持志不迷荒,诸法本净空无吾我,无所悕望无有畴疋,如来如是。” 于是而作颂曰: “诸天无央数, 亿千住虚空, 而雨栴檀香, 亿载梵亦散。 闻此宝网经, 赞劝助如来, 心欢喜欣然, 口宣无上义。 我于后末世, 为勇猛比丘, 诣城郭县邑, 当为说此经。 当谛顺佛教, 平等觉吉祥, 故到亿喻旬, 颁宣是言教, 请会诸天人, 诸龙真陀罗, 诸人及非人, 饱满以法施, 诸天人欢喜, 其心和悦安, 于彼雨众花, 同音俱咨嗟。 普遍诸佛土, 法王之境界, 释师子人尊, 一毛光所照, 导人兴愍哀, 世尊一出舌, 蒙覆亿佛土, 亦如江河沙; 十方亦如兹, 各照亿佛土。 大雄即告曰: ‘于童子宝网, 缘犁车国人, 及六十等侣, 于彼侍世尊, 顾眄而告言: “无得疑佛法, 如来不可量。 无能限佛眼, 施安一切和, 佛慧无央数, 普流于三世。 世尊靡不达, 皆解诸经典, 五阴无坚固, 人中导所说。 四大之所变, 无得着音响, 当解于色阴, 痛痒诸想念, 现代汉语译本 ‘阴’(五蕴之一,指色、受、想、行、识五种构成生命的要素),如果明白了这些道理,就知道一切都是空无的,没有执着的必要。那些能够思维如来所说教义的人,能够迅速获得总持(能够记住并理解佛法教义的能力),意志不会迷失方向。一切法的本质都是清净空性的,没有‘我’和‘我所’的执着,没有希求,也没有任何可以比较的对象。如来就是这样的境界。 于是,他们作颂说道: ‘无数的天神,亿万之众,居住在虚空中,他们散落下栴檀香(一种珍贵的香料),亿万年之久,梵天之香也散布开来。 听闻这部《宝网经》,他们赞叹并劝请如来,心中充满欢喜,口中宣说无上的真理。 我将在后世末法时期,成为勇猛的比丘(佛教出家男子),前往城市和乡村,为人们宣说这部经典。 我将认真遵循佛教的教诲,平等觉悟,获得吉祥。因此,我将前往亿万由旬(古印度长度单位)的地方,宣讲这些教义。 我将邀请诸天、人、龙、真陀罗(一种神),以及所有人类和非人类,用佛法来满足他们。 诸天和人们都欢喜,他们的内心平和安宁,他们散落下各种鲜花,同声赞叹。 佛法的光辉普遍照耀着诸佛的国土,这是法王的境界。释迦牟尼佛(释师子人尊)的一根毫毛所发出的光芒,就能照耀一切。 他引导人们生起慈悲之心。世尊伸出舌头,覆盖了亿万佛土,如同恒河沙数一般。 十方世界也是如此,各自照耀着亿万佛土。 大雄(佛的尊称)于是说道:‘在童子宝网(指佛陀的教诲),缘犁车国(古印度地名)的人们,以及六十位同伴,在世尊身边侍奉,他们看着世尊,听他说道:’ ‘不要怀疑佛法,如来的境界是不可测量的。没有人能够限制佛的眼睛,他给予一切众生安宁与和谐。 佛的智慧是无限的,普遍流布于过去、现在和未来三世。世尊无所不知,通晓一切经典。 五阴(色、受、想、行、识)不是坚固不变的,这是人中导师所说的真理。 四大(地、水、火、风)所产生的变化,不要执着于声音和形象。应当理解色阴(物质现象),以及痛痒、各种想法和念头。

English version 'Skandha' (one of the five aggregates, referring to the five elements that constitute life: form, feeling, perception, mental formations, and consciousness), if one understands these principles, one knows that everything is empty and there is no need for attachment. Those who can contemplate what the Tathagata (Buddha) has taught can quickly attain dharani (the ability to remember and understand Buddhist teachings), and their will will not be lost. The essence of all dharmas (teachings) is pure emptiness, without attachment to 'self' and 'what belongs to self,' without desire, and without anything to compare to. The Tathagata is such a state. Then, they composed a verse saying: 'Countless gods, billions in number, dwell in the void, they scatter sandalwood incense (a precious fragrance), for billions of years, and the fragrance of Brahma also spreads. Hearing this 'Jewel Net Sutra,' they praise and urge the Tathagata, their hearts filled with joy, and their mouths proclaim the supreme truth. I will, in the future degenerate age, become a courageous Bhikkhu (Buddhist monk), and go to cities and villages to preach this sutra to the people. I will diligently follow the teachings of Buddhism, attain equal enlightenment, and receive auspiciousness. Therefore, I will go to places billions of yojanas (an ancient Indian unit of length) away to proclaim these teachings. I will invite gods, humans, dragons, Gandharvas (a type of deity), and all humans and non-humans, to satisfy them with the Dharma. The gods and people are all joyful, their hearts are peaceful and tranquil, they scatter various flowers, and praise in unison. The light of the Dharma shines universally on the lands of all Buddhas, this is the realm of the Dharma King. The light emitted from a single hair of Shakyamuni Buddha (Shishi Ren Zun) can illuminate everything. He guides people to generate compassion. The World Honored One extends his tongue, covering billions of Buddha lands, like the sands of the Ganges River. The ten directions are also like this, each illuminating billions of Buddha lands. The Great Hero (an epithet for the Buddha) then said: 'In the Jewel Net of the Child (referring to the Buddha's teachings), the people of the country of Pliha (an ancient Indian place name), and sixty companions, serving by the side of the World Honored One, they looked at the World Honored One, and heard him say:' 'Do not doubt the Dharma, the realm of the Tathagata is immeasurable. No one can limit the eyes of the Buddha, he gives peace and harmony to all beings. The wisdom of the Buddha is infinite, universally flowing through the past, present, and future three worlds. The World Honored One is omniscient, understanding all the scriptures. The five skandhas (form, feeling, perception, mental formations, and consciousness) are not solid and unchanging, this is the truth spoken by the guide of humanity. The changes produced by the four great elements (earth, water, fire, and wind), do not be attached to sounds and images. One should understand the form skandha (material phenomena), as well as pain, itching, various thoughts, and ideas.' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 生死猗众识, 无有真要者。 别五阴如是, 顺如如来命, 速得逮总持, 心未曾忽忘。 诸法皆本净, 虚无无吾我, 无诤无所念, 此从如来教。”’”

佛告童子:“南方去此如前譬喻,过倍此数一切诸尘,更复越彼七十二亿百千垓不可计会诸佛刹土计倍,复有世界名杂种宝锦,彼有佛,名树根花王,现在说法。若族姓子及族姓女,闻彼佛名为如来、至真、等正觉、明行成为、善逝、世间解、无上士、道法御、天人师、佛、世尊,所演经法初中竟善。 “若族姓子及族姓女,闻彼佛名,不怀疑结信吾道眼,则于现世至德具足逮受五法。何谓为五?一曰、尽除吾我,所生之处常值佛世;二曰、获极尊势转轮圣王;三曰、逮总持法执御经典诚信百千;四曰、成三十二大人之相,至得佛道众行备悉;五曰、逮得五通无所蔽碍。是为五。 “复有五事逮得神通。何谓为五?一曰、彻视,见于十方粗细大小,学无学声闻缘觉,上至世尊与众超越;二曰、耳能彻听,闻万亿地狱饿鬼烧炙、饥渴,畜生之恼,天上世间安隐苦乐,或恶或好,十方诸佛所说经典,皆悉闻之;三曰、身能飞行遍诸佛国,如日现水,虽现往来而无周旋;四曰、能知一切众生心念善恶好丑,有志无志有漏 现代汉语译本 生死依附于众多的意识,没有真实不变的实体。 要像这样分别观察五阴(色、受、想、行、识),顺应如来的教诲, 迅速获得总持(陀罗尼),心中不曾有丝毫的遗忘。 一切诸法本来清净,空虚无我, 没有争执,没有执念,这是从如来的教导中得来的。 佛陀告诉童子:‘从南方去,像之前所说的比喻一样,超过这个数量的所有微尘,再越过七十二亿百千垓(极大的数量单位)不可计数佛刹土的倍数,还有一个世界名为杂种宝锦。那里有一尊佛,名为树根花王(佛名),现在正在说法。 如果善男子或善女人,听到这位佛的名号,如来(Tathagata)、至真(Arhat)、等正觉(Samyaksambuddha)、明行成(Vidyacharana-sampanna)、善逝(Sugata)、世间解(Lokavid)、无上士(Anuttara-purusa-damya-sarathi)、道法御(Shasta deva-manushyanam)、天人师(Buddha)、佛(Bhagavan),世尊(Bhagavan),所宣讲的经法,从开始到中间到结尾都很好。 如果善男子或善女人,听到这位佛的名号,不怀疑,坚信我的道眼,那么在现世就能获得至高的德行,具备五种功德。哪五种呢?第一,彻底消除我执,所生之处常常遇到佛陀出世;第二,获得极尊贵的地位,成为转轮圣王;第三,获得总持法,执持经典,诚信百千;第四,成就三十二大丈夫相,最终成就佛道,一切修行都圆满;第五,获得五神通,没有障碍。这就是五种功德。 还有五件事可以获得神通。哪五件呢?第一,天眼通,能看到十方世界粗细大小,有学无学的声闻缘觉,上至世尊与大众,都能超越;第二,天耳通,能听到万亿地狱饿鬼的烧灼、饥渴,畜生的苦恼,天上世间的安稳快乐,或恶或好,十方诸佛所说的经典,都能听到;第三,神足通,身体能飞行遍诸佛国土,像太阳在水中显现一样,虽然显现往来,却没有周旋;第四,他心通,能知道一切众生的心念,善恶好丑,有志无志,有漏无漏;第五,宿命通,能知道自己和一切众生过去世的因缘。
