刚山不可倾动,得不忘念差别智慧,能受一切法彻到彼岸。智慧了知一切佛法方便之行,福德善力不可沮坏,住四辩才心无怯弱,于父母所知恩报恩。于一切佛法得最胜心,常为众生说佛功德,若见若闻诸佛神通心无厌足,善能摄取诸智慧者,能说一切诸佛境界,一切佛法悉能讲说。是长者子成就如是等功德,如是等无量法器,广说无量叹不可尽。 是月光童子,知父长者信受外道欲害如来,即至母所,白其母言:“母今知不?父心颠倒,受外道教失于本心,于外道所得欢喜心深生敬信,是诸外道自造三恶道业,亦令父作三恶道业。母今莫受父邪见语诽谤于佛。何以故?佛出世难久远劫来不可值遇,或一劫、十劫、千劫、万劫,乃至不可说劫。诸佛名字尚不可闻,何况得见!佛能清净诸众生心,具足神通智慧,了达无有障碍,善能教化一切众生,所行无碍,于三解脱佛最第一。于一念顷知一切法,如来善住一切法中,如来能知一切众生所生之处,佛真实语为诸众生而作证明,能除众生身心苦恼种种怨敌,于诸境界无所取着。母当信佛,莫信六师虚诳之语。我敬母故,为报母恩奉上此语。何以故?母怀我身满足十月受大苦恼,生我身时,半死半生绝而复苏。我念此恩未曾遗忘,设于无量百千万劫亦不可报。我心常 现代汉语译本 刚山(比喻坚定不移)不可倾动,得不忘念差别智慧(指能够分辨各种法门的智慧),能接受一切佛法并彻悟到彼岸(佛教用语,指脱离生死轮回的境界)。智慧能够了知一切佛法的方便之行,福德善力不可摧毁,具备四种辩才(指无碍辩、义辩、词辩、乐说辩)内心没有怯懦,对于父母知道感恩并报答恩情。对于一切佛法得到最殊胜的信心,常常为众生宣说佛的功德,如果见到或听到诸佛的神通,内心没有厌倦满足,善于摄取各种具有智慧的人,能够宣说一切诸佛的境界,一切佛法都能够讲解宣说。这位长者之子成就了像这样等等的功德,像这样等等的无量法器(比喻能够接受佛法教诲的人),广泛宣说也无法穷尽其赞叹。 这位月光童子,知道父亲长者信奉外道想要加害如来(佛的称号),就到母亲那里,告诉他的母亲说:‘母亲现在知道吗?父亲心意颠倒,接受外道的教导失去了本心,对外道所得的欢喜心深深地产生敬信,这些外道自己造作三恶道(指地狱、饿鬼、畜生)的业,也让父亲造作三恶道的业。母亲现在不要接受父亲邪见的言语诽谤佛。为什么呢?佛出世很难,久远劫(佛教时间概念,指极长的时间)以来不可能遇到,或者一劫、十劫、千劫、万劫,乃至不可说劫。诸佛的名字尚且不可能听到,更何况能够见到!佛能够清净各种众生的心,具足神通智慧,通达没有障碍,善于教化一切众生,所行没有阻碍,在三种解脱(指空解脱门、无相解脱门、无作解脱门)中佛是最第一的。在一念之间知道一切法,如来善于安住于一切法中,如来能够知道一切众生所生之处,佛说真实的话为各种众生而作证明,能够去除众生身心苦恼种种怨敌,对于各种境界没有执着。母亲应当相信佛,不要相信六师外道(指当时流行的六种外道)虚假欺骗的话。我尊敬母亲的缘故,为了报答母亲的恩情奉上这些话。为什么呢?母亲怀我身体满足十个月,承受巨大的苦恼,生我的时候,半死半生,断绝了又苏醒。我念及这份恩情未曾遗忘,即使在无量百千万劫也无法报答。我的心常常…’

English version The firm mountain (an analogy for unwavering resolve) cannot be moved, one obtains the non-forgetting mindfulness of discriminating wisdom (referring to the wisdom to distinguish various Dharma gates), capable of receiving all Dharmas and thoroughly reaching the other shore (a Buddhist term referring to the state of liberation from the cycle of birth and death). Wisdom is able to understand all the expedient practices of the Buddhadharma, the merit and virtuous power cannot be destroyed, possessing the four kinds of eloquence (unobstructed eloquence, eloquence of meaning, eloquence of expression, and joyful eloquence) with no timidity in the heart, knowing gratitude to parents and repaying their kindness. Towards all Buddhadharma, one attains the most supreme faith, constantly proclaiming the merits of the Buddha to sentient beings, if seeing or hearing the supernormal powers of the Buddhas, the mind is without weariness and is satisfied, skillfully gathering all those with wisdom, able to speak of all the realms of the Buddhas, and able to explain and proclaim all Buddhadharma. This son of the elder has accomplished such merits and virtues, such immeasurable vessels of Dharma (an analogy for those who can receive the Buddha's teachings), extensively speaking, the praise is inexhaustible. This Moonlight Youth, knowing that his father, the elder, believed in externalist paths and desired to harm the Tathagata (an epithet of the Buddha), went to his mother and said to her: 'Mother, do you know now? Father's mind is inverted, accepting the teachings of externalist paths and losing his original mind, deeply generating respect and faith in the joy obtained from externalist paths. These externalist paths themselves create the karma of the three evil realms (referring to hell, hungry ghosts, and animals), and also cause father to create the karma of the three evil realms. Mother, do not now accept the words of father's heretical views and slander the Buddha. Why? It is difficult for a Buddha to appear in the world, and it is impossible to encounter one in countless eons, or one eon, ten eons, a thousand eons, ten thousand eons, even unspeakable eons. Even the names of the Buddhas are impossible to hear, let alone see! The Buddha is able to purify the minds of all sentient beings, possessing supernormal powers and wisdom, understanding without obstruction, skillfully teaching and transforming all sentient beings, acting without hindrance, in the three liberations (emptiness, signlessness, and desirelessness) the Buddha is the most supreme. In a single moment, he knows all Dharmas, the Tathagata dwells well in all Dharmas, the Tathagata is able to know the place of birth of all sentient beings, the Buddha speaks truthful words as proof for all sentient beings, able to remove the physical and mental suffering and all kinds of enemies of sentient beings, without attachment to any realms. Mother should believe in the Buddha, do not believe in the false and deceptive words of the six heretical teachers (referring to the six prevalent heretical teachers at the time). I respect my mother, and for the sake of repaying my mother's kindness, I offer these words. Why? Mother carried me in her womb for ten months, enduring great suffering, and when giving birth to me, she was half-dead and half-alive, ceasing and then reviving. I remember this kindness and have never forgotten it, even in immeasurable hundreds of thousands of millions of eons, it cannot be repaid. My mind constantly...' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
