English version: When an Arhat (Arhat, one who is worthy), a Samyaksambuddha (Samyaksambuddha, a fully enlightened Buddha) appears in the world, endowed with perfect knowledge and conduct (Vidya-charana-sampanna), a Well-Gone One (Sugata), an Understander of the World (Lokavidu), an Unsurpassed One (Anuttara), a Tamer of Men (Purusha-damya-sarathi), a Teacher of Gods and Humans (Shasta deva-manushyanam), a Buddha (Buddha, the Awakened One), a World-Honored One (Bhagavan). Good son! This person who is difficult to tame, with an evil mind, an enemy, who has harmed others before, after the end of this life, will be born in the Tushita Heaven (Tushita Heaven) to Maitreya Bodhisattva (Maitreya Bodhisattva), and live out his lifespan with him. When Maitreya Bodhisattva descends, he will then become a great elder, possessing immeasurable wealth and blessings, and all his karmic rewards will manifest, and for twenty days and nights, he will make offerings to Maitreya World-Honored One and the assembly of Shravakas. Seeing the splendor of Maitreya World-Honored One's Buddha-field (Buddha-kshetra, Buddha land), he will generate the aspiration to accomplish a splendid Buddha-field. Together with his family, he will invite Maitreya Tathagata World-Honored One, and the assembly of Shravakas surrounding him, and for three months, he will offer all kinds of offerings and delightful things, with reverence, respect, service, and veneration. He will then use a plain cloth eighty cubits long to paint an image of Maitreya Tathagata, and the splendid appearance of his Buddha-field. After the painting is completed, he will offer it to Maitreya Tathagata World-Honored One, and make the vow: 'By the merit of this, may I attain such a splendid Buddha-field, just like the fully adorned appearance of the present Maitreya World-Honored One, Arhat (Arhat, one who is worthy), Samyaksambuddha (Samyaksambuddha, a fully enlightened Buddha). May the Shravakas in my Buddha-field be endowed with wisdom, and may the Bodhisattvas in my Buddha-field be fully endowed with immeasurable wisdom.' After making this vow, he will scatter gold and silver flowers upon Maitreya Tathagata World-Honored One, and say: 'We shall be as diligent as this, and we shall also accomplish such a splendid Buddha-field, just as Shakyamuni Buddha (Shakyamuni Buddha), the victorious king of the Shakya clan, showed us the light and illuminated us, and at that time matured countless beings in Bodhi, just like Maitreya Tathagata World-Honored One has many Bodhisattvas.' That Tathagata of Superior Merit, at the first assembly, had countless Bodhisattvas, and all attained forbearance in the predictions. At the second assembly, the number of Bodhisattvas doubled immeasurably. At the third assembly, it doubled immeasurably again, in such a way. That Tathagata of Superior Merit, Arhat (Arhat, one who is worthy), --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

三藐三佛陀，当有如是诸菩萨众，而彼利上功德如来，示教利喜诸菩萨众令行誓愿。得初心已，皆令成就于一切智乃至菩提。 “善男子！此难调怨仇先害人者，值弥勒佛出世已后，一切生处寿命无量，唯除一生补处时中寿二十岁，而于彼处于一日中，自身具受一切恶业无量苦恼。从是已后乃至菩提，当更修习觉菩提已寿命无量。佛灭度后，正法住世于无量时，无有恶世。如我今日谄恶众生，有恶口者、无智慧者、难入道者、魔所持者，我今于中说法教化，此等众生难解难入；此善男子，无有如是诸患难事。善男子！彼佛刹中无有诸魔及魔事者。所有利根通敏众生皆集于彼，是故彼佛利上功德如来说法，少用功力而得开解。” 尔时，众中有菩萨名无障净月，即从坐起整理衣服，右膝着地，合掌向佛欲自决疑，及为此众令断疑故，即以偈颂问世尊曰： “我问世间灯， 智聚无碍者， 为欲自断疑， 及于此众故。 何缘此众见， 然今利根者， 于先杀害人， 复得记菩提？ 大龙愿为说， 彼往昔行业， 既为亿数劫， 常作恶趣地， 多劫数积聚， 为痴盲覆故， 于多百亿劫， 常受多种苦。 流转生死中， 地狱火炽然， 大呼阿毗支， 观彼业如 现代汉语译本： 当正等觉（三藐三佛陀）出现时，会有这样的菩萨众，而那位具有殊胜功德的如来，会教导、启发、利益、喜悦这些菩萨众，使他们奉行誓愿。一旦他们获得了最初的发心，就会让他们成就一切智，直至证得菩提（觉悟）。 ‘善男子！这些难以调伏的怨敌，那些曾经伤害过他人的人，在弥勒佛（Maitreya Buddha）出世之后，他们所生的所有地方寿命都将是无量的，只有在作为一生补处菩萨（即将成佛的菩萨）时，寿命是二十岁。而且在那一生中，他们会在一天之内，亲身承受一切恶业所带来的无量苦恼。从那之后，直到证得菩提，他们将继续修习觉悟菩提，寿命无量。佛陀灭度后，正法将住世无量的时间，不会有邪恶的时代。就像我今天所面对的这些谄媚邪恶的众生，有恶语伤人的、没有智慧的、难以进入佛道的、被邪魔所控制的，我今天在他们之中说法教化，这些众生难以理解，难以进入佛道；这位善男子，不会有这样的诸多患难之事。善男子！在那佛国之中，没有诸多的邪魔以及邪魔之事。所有具有敏锐根性的众生都聚集在那里，因此那位具有殊胜功德的如来说法，只需少许的功力就能使他们开悟理解。’ 当时，大众中有一位菩萨，名叫无障净月（Wu Zhang Jing Yue），他立即从座位上站起来，整理好衣服，右膝跪地，合掌向佛，想要消除自己的疑惑，并且为了让大众也能断除疑惑，于是用偈颂向世尊（释迦摩尼佛的尊称）提问： ‘我向世间的明灯，智慧聚集且无碍者提问，为了消除我自己的疑惑，以及为了这里的这些大众。为什么这里的这些大众看到，现在这些具有敏锐根性的人，曾经杀害过他人，却又被授记将证得菩提？大龙（佛的尊称）啊，请您为我们说说，他们往昔的行业，既然已经有亿万劫的时间，常常处于恶趣之地，多劫数积聚的业力，被愚痴和盲昧所覆盖，在众多百亿劫的时间里，常常遭受各种各样的痛苦，在生死轮回中流转，地狱的火焰炽热燃烧，大声呼喊阿鼻地狱（Avici），看看他们的业力是怎样的。’

English version: When a Samyak-sambuddha (perfectly enlightened Buddha) appears, there will be such assemblies of Bodhisattvas, and that Tathagata (Buddha), who possesses superior merits, will instruct, inspire, benefit, and delight these Bodhisattvas, causing them to practice vows. Once they have attained the initial aspiration, they will be enabled to achieve omniscience, up to the attainment of Bodhi (enlightenment). 'Good man! These difficult-to-tame enemies, those who have harmed others in the past, after Maitreya Buddha appears in the world, the lifespan in all their births will be immeasurable, except when they are in the position of a Bodhisattva destined for one more life (before Buddhahood), when their lifespan will be twenty years. Moreover, in that one life, they will personally endure immeasurable suffering from all the evil deeds within a single day. From then on, until they attain Bodhi, they will continue to cultivate enlightenment-Bodhi, with immeasurable lifespans. After the Buddha's Parinirvana (passing away), the Dharma (teachings) will abide in the world for immeasurable time, and there will be no evil ages. Like the flattering and wicked beings I face today, those who speak evil words, those who lack wisdom, those who are difficult to enter the path, those who are possessed by demons, I am now teaching and transforming them, but these beings are difficult to understand and difficult to enter the path; this good man will not have such difficulties and hardships. Good man! In that Buddha-land, there are no demons or demonic affairs. All beings with sharp faculties and quick understanding gather there, therefore that Tathagata with superior merits preaches the Dharma, requiring little effort to enlighten them.' At that time, among the assembly was a Bodhisattva named Wu Zhang Jing Yue (Pure Moon Without Obstacles), who immediately rose from his seat, arranged his robes, knelt on his right knee, and joined his palms towards the Buddha, intending to resolve his own doubts and to dispel the doubts of the assembly. He then asked the World-Honored One (a title for Shakyamuni Buddha) in verse: 'I ask the lamp of the world, the one who is the gathering of wisdom and without obstacles, for the sake of resolving my own doubts, and for the sake of this assembly. Why do these assemblies see that these people with sharp faculties now, who have killed others in the past, are being predicted to attain Bodhi? Great Dragon (an epithet for the Buddha), please tell us about their past actions, since they have been in evil realms for billions of kalpas (eons), the accumulated karma of many kalpas, covered by ignorance and blindness, and have constantly suffered various kinds of suffering for many hundreds of billions of kalpas, wandering in the cycle of birth and death, with the flames of hell burning fiercely, crying out in Avici (the lowest level of hell), look at what their karma is like.' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 是， 复倍生死中， 受恶毒蛇身， 见即能杀害， 多百亿生死。 受多种苦已， 多百亿数劫， 得生人道中， 复作杀害人。 今得见世尊， 即生于利根， 速断诸烦恼， 发意向菩提。 蒙佛为授记， 于阿僧祇劫， 当成世间灯， 名利上功德。 彼往昔之事， 人上为解说， 如是作业事， 苦恶之果报。 以是亿数劫， 已受多种苦， 若所有善业， 教师亦为说， 昔所行诸行， 恶业与不善， 世灯悉照知， 唯愿为我说。 断疑大丈夫， 为我及众生， 及与未来等， 能闻此教者， 若有怀疑惑， 于此法有疑， 教师今为断。 现在两足尊， 摄受众生故， 于是善男子， 如此往昔行， 大名称愿说。”

尔时，佛告无障净月菩萨言：“善哉！善哉！善男子！汝今欲为一切大众断除疑故，能问如来如是之义。汝善男子！谛听！谛听！善思念之，当为汝说。彼善男子！如彼往昔所作诸业，如此多数经于百千那由他劫受诸苦恼，汝等闻已，当信如来勿生恐怖，一向奉持如教而说。” 尔时，无障净月菩萨而白佛言：“唯愿世尊，为我解说。” 佛言：“善男子！我念往昔，然灯如来 现代汉语译本 又在生死轮回中，遭受恶毒蛇的身躯， 一见到就能杀害，经历多百亿次的生死。 承受多种苦难后，经过多百亿数的劫数， 才得以生在人道中，却又继续做杀害人的事情。 如今能够见到世尊（Buddha），就生出敏锐的根性， 迅速断除各种烦恼，发起意念趋向菩提（Bodhi，觉悟）。 蒙受佛陀（Buddha）为他授记，在阿僧祇劫（asamkhya kalpa，无数劫）之后， 将成为世间的明灯，名为利上功德（Lishangongde）。 他往昔的事情，为人们解说， 像这样造作业的事情，是苦恶的果报。 因此在亿数劫中，已经承受多种苦难， 如果有什么善业，老师也为他说， 过去所做的一切行为，恶业与不善业， 世间的明灯（佛陀）全部知晓，唯愿为我说。 断除疑惑的大丈夫，为了我和众生， 以及未来等等，能够听闻这些教诲的人， 如果有人心怀疑惑，对这些法有疑问， 老师现在就为他们断除。现在这两足尊（佛陀）， 为了摄受众生，于是这位善男子， 如此往昔的行为，大名称愿说。’ 这时，佛陀（Buddha）告诉无障净月菩萨（Wuzhangjingyue Bodhisattva）说：‘好啊！好啊！善男子！你现在想要为一切大众断除疑惑，能够问如来（Tathagata，佛陀）这样的道理。你这位善男子！仔细听！仔细听！好好思考，我会为你解说。那位善男子！像他往昔所造作的各种业，如此多数经过百千那由他劫（nayuta kalpa，极多的劫数）承受各种苦恼，你们听了之后，应当相信如来（Tathagata），不要产生恐惧，一心奉持如教而说。’ 这时，无障净月菩萨（Wuzhangjingyue Bodhisattva）对佛陀（Buddha）说：‘唯愿世尊（World-Honored One，佛陀），为我解说。’ 佛陀（Buddha）说：‘善男子！我回忆往昔，然灯如来（Dipamkara Buddha）
