English version Ananda rose from his seat, adjusted his robes, knelt on his right knee, folded his hands, and touched the Buddha's feet with his head and face, saying to the Buddha, 'For what reason does the Buddha smile? Since you smile, there must be a meaning behind it.' At that time, the Buddha spoke a verse for Ananda: 'Sihamei (Sihamei, a name) is at the top, the foremost among the disciples, all should together experience one kalpa (kalpa, a Buddhist unit of time), becoming a noble hero among humans. They should, in this Bhadrakalpa (bhadrakalpa, the Fortunate Aeon), in the later age of the five turbidities (five turbidities, the degenerate age), completely end their sins here, and from this, obtain supernatural powers (supernatural power, siddhi). Then, when their supernatural powers are complete, they will fly to billions of buddha-fields (buddha-field, a Buddha's realm), make offerings, and then become Buddhas, their Buddha name being Padmottara (Padmottara, a Buddha's name).' At that time, five hundred disciples praised the Buddha before the Buddha, speaking in verse: 'Now the Buddha says that we, these people, will receive predictions and become Buddhas, teaching all to do meritorious deeds, countless times without arising stray thoughts. I, at that time, as the Dharma King (Dharmaraja, title of the Buddha), will dwell in Jambudvipa (Jambudvipa, the world we live in), the Bodhisattva under the Bodhi tree, extensively teaching the Dharma to all. If someone hears the sutra and asks questions, they will immediately generate the thought of a Bodhisattva, all of us urge the Buddha, may the World Honored One grant us predictions (vyakarana, prediction). Now the Buddha is the father of all beings, always compassionate to humans and non-humans, adding loving-kindness for the sake of his children, the Great Honored One will explain separately. At that time, regarding this sutra, and later generating reverence, they will immediately generate the thought of a Bodhisattva, asking about the meaning of the sutra for the sake of others. The Great Hero will explain in detail to them, what merits the thought of a Bodhisattva has, if a wise person hears this Dharma, they will generate the thought of a Bodhisattva.' At that time, the Buddha spoke a verse for the five hundred disciples: 'If someone hears and believes, the Bodhi tree is the unsurpassed honored one, I will grant them all predictions, all will obtain the king among humans. The will is courageous and vast, generating the Bodhi mind and going straight ahead, their aspiration is very pure, and they will be born in a pure reality.

尔时阿难白佛言：“是经名为何等？当云何奉行之？” 佛语阿难：“是经名‘菩萨道树经’，若当讽诵持之！” 阿难白佛言：“何因名为‘菩萨道树经’？” 佛语阿难：“譬如种树，稍稍生芽，后生茎、节、枝、叶、花、实。如是阿难！于是经初发意菩萨便得喜，从喜身意得休息，具足六度无极行变谋明德，便得无所从生法忍，具足一切智慧，转于法轮乃至灭度，便分布舍利住后后法用。是故阿难！是名‘菩萨道树经’。” 佛说已，私呵昧童孺及五百弟子、诸比丘僧及天人、龙鬼、质谅神闻经，皆大欢喜，前以头面着地，为佛作礼而去。 私呵昧经 现代汉语译本 脱离三界，便立即生起菩萨的意念， 怀着这种意念行功德，就能迅速脱离三界。 一切人所做的事情，都执着于三界之中， 如果他的意念没有执着，那么菩萨就没有更高的境界了。 如果菩萨生起经文的意念，为一切众生宣讲菩提树（Bodhi tree）， 有了功德便教导众生，持诵这部经就能示现真理。 关于菩萨的事迹已经详细讲述，应当教导的内容都已经遍及， 其余的法门不可计数，那些法门精微难以言说。 无量的智慧全部具足，因此才能成佛， 哀怜悲悯一切众生，常常修习菩萨的德行。 这时，阿难（Ananda，佛陀的十大弟子之一）问佛说：‘这部经叫什么名字？应当如何奉行？’ 佛告诉阿难：‘这部经名为《菩萨道树经》，应当讽诵并受持它！’ 阿难问佛说：‘因为什么原因叫做《菩萨道树经》？’ 佛告诉阿难：‘譬如种植树木，渐渐地生出嫩芽，之后生出茎、节、枝、叶、花、果实。像这样，阿难！在这部经中，初发菩提心的菩萨便能得到喜悦，从喜悦的身心得到休息，具足六度（Six Perfections）无极的修行，变化谋略，彰显美德，便能得到无所从来法忍（acceptance of the non-arising of phenomena），具足一切智慧，转动法轮（Dharma wheel），乃至涅槃（Nirvana），便分佈舍利（relics），住持后世的佛法。所以，阿难！这部经名为《菩萨道树经》。’ 佛说完后，私呵昧童孺（Sihamegha child）以及五百弟子、各位比丘僧（bhiksu sangha）以及天人、龙鬼、质谅神（various deities）听了这部经，都非常欢喜，上前以头面触地，向佛作礼后离去。 《私呵昧经》

English version Leaving the three realms, one immediately generates the Bodhisattva's intention, Holding this intention to perform meritorious deeds, one can quickly escape the three realms. All actions performed by all people are attached to the three realms, If one's intention is without attachment, then there is no higher state than that of a Bodhisattva. If a Bodhisattva generates the intention of the sutra, to preach the Bodhi tree (Bodhi tree) for all beings, With merit, one teaches and guides, and holding this sutra can reveal the truth. The deeds of the Bodhisattva have been fully explained, and what should be taught has been covered extensively, The remaining Dharma methods are countless, and those methods are subtle and difficult to describe. Immeasurable wisdom is fully possessed, therefore one can become a Buddha, Pitying and compassionating all beings, constantly cultivating the practices of a Bodhisattva. At that time, Ananda (Ananda, one of the ten great disciples of the Buddha) asked the Buddha: 'What is the name of this sutra? How should it be practiced?' The Buddha told Ananda: 'This sutra is named the 'Bodhisattva Path Tree Sutra'. You should recite and uphold it!' Ananda asked the Buddha: 'For what reason is it called the 'Bodhisattva Path Tree Sutra'?' The Buddha told Ananda: 'For example, planting a tree, gradually sprouting buds, then growing stems, nodes, branches, leaves, flowers, and fruits. Like this, Ananda! In this sutra, the Bodhisattva who initially generates the Bodhi mind obtains joy, and from the joyful body and mind, one obtains rest, fully possessing the practice of the Six Perfections (Six Perfections), transforming strategies, manifesting virtues, and then obtaining acceptance of the non-arising of phenomena (acceptance of the non-arising of phenomena), fully possessing all wisdom, turning the Dharma wheel (Dharma wheel), and even Nirvana (Nirvana), then distributing relics (relics), upholding the Dharma for future generations. Therefore, Ananda! This sutra is named the 'Bodhisattva Path Tree Sutra'.' After the Buddha finished speaking, the Sihamegha child (Sihamegha child) and five hundred disciples, all the bhiksu sangha (bhiksu sangha), and the devas, nagas, and various deities (various deities) who heard this sutra were all very happy, and they prostrated themselves with their heads to the ground, paid homage to the Buddha, and departed.
