English version The Sutra of Golden Light Child Spoken by the Buddha Translated by the Tripitaka Master Tian Xizai, a Shramana bestowed with the Purple Robe by Imperial Decree from the Secret Forest Temple in Jalandhara, Central India of the Western Regions. Thus have I heard: At one time, the Buddha was in the Jeta Grove, Anathapindika's Garden in Shravasti (Sravasti). At that time, the World-Honored One, during mealtime, put on his robes and, respectfully surrounded by many Bhikshus, entered the great city of Shravasti (Sravasti) to beg for food in an orderly manner. A Brahmin, emerging from Shravasti (Sravasti), encountered the World-Honored One, gazed upon his countenance for a long time, and then spoke words of praise: 'Gautama (Gautama)! Your face is supreme, golden and dignified.' The World-Honored One affirmed: 'So it is! So it is! The blessings I have accumulated have resulted in this reward.' The Brahmin said: 'Gautama (Gautama)! I also possess blessings in this present life. In my household, a child was born, with golden radiance and excellent features, comparable to Gautama (Gautama), something never seen before. 'Furthermore, Gautama (Gautama)! When that child was first born, there were even more extraordinary and auspicious events. At the time of his birth, his mind was peaceful, and his consciousness was clear and sharp. Lotuses suddenly grew in his courtyard, the entire room was filled with heavenly fragrance, constantly fragrant, and all beings universally loved and rejoiced. 'Furthermore, Gautama (Gautama)! This is neither particularly wonderful nor rare. Furthermore, when the child was first born, Champaka (Campaka) flower trees grew everywhere, and those trees bore Champaka (Campaka) exquisite flowers of heavenly purple-golden color. 'Furthermore, Gautama (Gautama)! Such auspiciousness is still not rare. Furthermore, when the child was first born, golden plates of the Devas naturally appeared, filled with hundreds of thousands of kinds of heavenly food and drink, which, even if consumed, would never be exhausted. 'Furthermore, Gautama (Gautama)! Such a response is still not extraordinary. At the time of the child's birth, a voice came from his mouth, saying that Buddhas, World-Honored Ones, and Arhats would appear in the world, and even perform' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

住常所思念。”婆罗门说此童子吉祥事已,而告佛言:“往诣彼处为见童子。”世尊默然诣彼舍宅。 欲入之时,中间有优婆塞而白佛言:“勿入此舍!彼婆罗门于佛法中不能信敬。”世尊答言:“此婆罗门亦具信根。”是时,世尊答优婆塞已,便入婆罗门舍见其童子。 是时童子才见世尊,便往归依五体投地,佛便咒愿,如是彼诸苾刍从佛往诣亦见童子。佛咒愿已,与诸苾刍回归精舍。 尔时,童子后渐长大,舍卫国主波斯匿王,闻彼婆罗门有如是德行,生其贵子,遂遣使臣广执华鬘、栴檀、宝香,诣婆罗门家,围绕童子而伸宣请。童子答言:“候我先到祇树礼拜世尊,而入舍卫见波斯匿王。” 使臣回已,具奏前事,波斯匿王闻其奏已:“我今亦往祇树,礼觐世尊、见彼童子。” 是时,童子寻诣祇树,于其中路见一婆罗门,而问童子:“汝今何往?”童子答言:“欲往祇树礼觐世尊。” 婆罗门呵责童子:“云何广名婆罗门族生已,要去欲见沙门?”童子对言:“汝得珍宝大藏,不要持宝归舍;汝得吉祥面前而来,却乃执棒打退。”童子对已便往祇树。 到世尊所,作礼佛足,于面前坐,而为听法。本生适意天妙莲华,生彼祇树园中,其香芬馥遍满一切,智慧忽生 现代汉语译本:'(我)常常思念居住的地方。'婆罗门说完这个童子的吉祥事后,告诉佛陀:'(我)想去那个地方拜访童子。'世尊默然地前往那个住所。 将要进入住所时,中间有一位优婆塞(Upasaka,在家男居士)劝阻佛陀说:'不要进入这个住所!那位婆罗门对佛法没有信心和尊敬。'世尊回答说:'这位婆罗门也具有信根。'当时,世尊回答优婆塞后,便进入婆罗门住所见到了那个童子。 当时童子一见到世尊,便前去归依,五体投地。佛陀便为他咒愿。同样地,那些比丘(Bhikkhu,出家男众)跟随佛陀前去,也见到了童子。佛陀咒愿完毕后,与众比丘一起返回精舍。 后来,童子渐渐长大,舍卫国(Śrāvastī)的国王波斯匿王(Prasenajit),听闻那位婆罗门有这样的德行,生了一个贵子,于是派遣使臣带着大量的华鬘(Huaman,花环)、栴檀(Candana,一种香木)、宝香,前往婆罗门家,围绕着童子宣读邀请。童子回答说:'等我先到祇树(Jetavana)礼拜世尊,再去舍卫见波斯匿王。' 使臣返回后,详细禀告了事情的经过。波斯匿王听了禀告后说:'我现在也要去祇树,礼拜觐见世尊,拜访那个童子。' 当时,童子前往祇树,在路途中遇到一位婆罗门,婆罗门问童子:'你现在要去哪里?'童子回答说:'想去祇树礼拜觐见世尊。' 婆罗门呵责童子说:'怎么说你也是广为人知的婆罗门族出身,却要去见沙门(Śrāmaṇa,出家修行者)?'童子回答说:'你得到了珍宝大藏,却不知道拿宝物回家;吉祥之兆来到你面前,你却要拿棍子打退它。'童子说完便前往祇树。 到达世尊处,顶礼佛足,在佛陀面前坐下,听闻佛法。如同本生故事中适意天(Tusita)的美妙莲花,在祇树园中生长出来,它的香气芬芳遍满一切,智慧也忽然产生。

English version: 'I often think of the place where I dwell.' After the Brahmin spoke of the auspiciousness of the child, he said to the Buddha, 'I wish to go to that place to visit the child.' The World-Honored One silently went to that dwelling. As he was about to enter, an Upasaka (lay male devotee) in the middle advised the Buddha, 'Do not enter this dwelling! That Brahmin has no faith or respect for the Buddha's teachings.' The World-Honored One replied, 'This Brahmin also possesses roots of faith.' At that time, after the World-Honored One answered the Upasaka, he entered the Brahmin's dwelling and saw the child. At that time, as soon as the child saw the World-Honored One, he went to take refuge, prostrating himself with his five limbs to the ground. The Buddha then bestowed blessings upon him. Similarly, those Bhikkhus (monks) who followed the Buddha also saw the child. After the Buddha had bestowed blessings, he returned to the monastery with the Bhikkhus. Later, as the child gradually grew up, King Prasenajit (King of Śrāvastī) heard that the Brahmin had such virtue and had given birth to a noble son. Therefore, he sent messengers carrying many Huaman (flower garlands), Candana (sandalwood), and precious incense to the Brahmin's house, surrounding the child and proclaiming the invitation. The child replied, 'Wait for me to first go to Jetavana (Gǐshù) to pay homage to the World-Honored One, and then I will go to Śrāvastī to see King Prasenajit.' After the messengers returned, they reported the matter in detail. King Prasenajit, upon hearing the report, said, 'I will also go to Jetavana now to pay homage to the World-Honored One and visit that child.' At that time, the child went to Jetavana and met a Brahmin on the way, who asked the child, 'Where are you going now?' The child replied, 'I wish to go to Jetavana to pay homage to the World-Honored One.' The Brahmin scolded the child, 'How can you, born into the widely known Brahmin caste, go to see a Śrāmaṇa (ascetic)?' The child replied, 'You have obtained a great treasure trove, but you do not know to bring the treasure home; good fortune comes before you, but you want to take a stick and drive it away.' After the child spoke, he went to Jetavana. Arriving at the place of the World-Honored One, he prostrated himself at the Buddha's feet and sat before the Buddha, listening to the Dharma. Like the wonderful lotus flower of Tusita (Contentment Heaven) in the Jataka tales, it grew in the Jetavana garden, its fragrance pervading everything, and wisdom suddenly arose. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

:“我今持此莲华供养世尊。”而复思惟:“我先生时,瞻卜迦树世所希有。”于发心时,瞻卜迦树而自出生,其树执持瞻卜迦华天紫金色。即时童子,以手掬瞻卜华散世尊上,所散之华住佛身上,庄严佛身;其中或有住佛顶上、住佛怀中、住佛足下;其中或有成华鬘衣,如是种种供养。 时王惊怪,问童子言:“汝云何供养作如是神力?”童子答言:“我于祇树,作如是一切庄严。” 彼时,童子又生最上智慧:“我瞻卜迦树,随我发心生瞻卜华,其华或生树身、或生果上、或生树枝、或生叶上;其瞻卜华,亦有出现住虚空中,又于祇园虚空之中,出现一切金宝铃铎。” 彼时,童子礼世尊足,白言:“世尊!受我今日施世尊食,及诸苾刍国王侍从,普受我供。”世尊默然受请。待击犍稚时到,即时世尊安详而坐,及诸苾刍国王、臣从次下而坐。是时生最上微妙思慧思忆:“我昔生时有金盘出现满中天食,愿得现前持来供佛。”作是念已,本生金盘随心出现,诸天上味满其盘中。是时童子,即持金盘及以饮食亲自供养。 是时、世尊与诸苾刍、国王、侍从食已饱满,金耀童子心大欢喜,礼世尊足,发阿耨多罗三藐三菩提心:“此后善根增长,谛发心愿,广行法施救度有情,我后方取成佛, 现代汉语译本:‘我现在手持这莲花供养世尊(Bhagavan,佛陀的尊称)。’又心想:‘我前世出生时,瞻卜迦树(Campaka tree,一种香花树)世间稀有。’当他发起这个心念时,瞻卜迦树就自然生长出来,树上长满天紫金色的瞻卜迦花。当时童子,用手捧起瞻卜迦花散在世尊身上,所散的花停留在佛身上,庄严佛身;其中有的停留在佛的头顶上、有的停留在佛的怀中、有的停留在佛的脚下;其中有的变成花鬘衣,像这样种种供养。 当时国王感到惊奇,问童子说:‘你如何供养而有如此神通之力?’童子回答说:‘我对于祇树(Jetavana,祇树给孤独园的简称),作了这样一切庄严。’ 那时,童子又生起最上智慧:‘我的瞻卜迦树,随着我发心而生出瞻卜迦花,那些花或者生长在树身、或者生长在果实上、或者生长在树枝上、或者生长在叶子上;那些瞻卜迦花,也有出现在虚空中,又在祇园(Jetavana,祇树给孤独园的简称)的虚空之中,出现一切金宝铃铎。’ 那时,童子礼拜世尊的脚,禀告说:‘世尊!接受我今天布施给世尊的食物,以及各位比丘(Bhikkhu,佛教出家男众)、国王和侍从,普遍接受我的供养。’世尊默然接受邀请。等待敲击犍稚(Ghaṇṭā,寺院中用以集众的法器)时辰到来,当时世尊安详地坐下,以及各位比丘、国王、臣子依次坐下。这时生起最上微妙的思慧,回忆:‘我过去出生时有金盘出现,盛满天上美食,希望现在能显现出来,拿来供养佛。’这样想之后,前世的金盘随着心念出现,各种天上美味盛满盘中。当时童子,就拿着金盘以及饮食亲自供养。 当时,世尊与各位比丘、国王、侍从吃饱后,金耀童子心大欢喜,礼拜世尊的脚,发起阿耨多罗三藐三菩提心(Anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi,无上正等正觉之心): ‘此后善根增长,真实地发愿,广行法施救度有情,我之后才取证成佛。’

English version: 'I now hold this lotus flower to offer to the World Honored One (Bhagavan, an epithet for the Buddha).' And he further thought: 'In my previous life, the Campaka tree (Campaka tree, a type of fragrant flowering tree) was rare in the world.' When he generated this thought, the Campaka tree naturally grew, and the tree was full of heavenly purple-golden Campaka flowers. At that time, the boy scooped up the Campaka flowers with his hands and scattered them on the World Honored One, and the scattered flowers remained on the Buddha's body, adorning the Buddha's body; some of them remained on the Buddha's head, some remained in the Buddha's embrace, and some remained at the Buddha's feet; some of them turned into garlands of flowers, and he made various offerings in this way. At that time, the king was surprised and asked the boy: 'How do you make offerings and have such miraculous powers?' The boy replied: 'I have made all these adornments for the Jetavana (Jetavana, shortened name of Jetavana Anathapindika's Monastery).' At that time, the boy again generated the highest wisdom: 'My Campaka tree, according to my aspiration, produces Campaka flowers, and those flowers either grow on the trunk of the tree, or on the fruits, or on the branches, or on the leaves; those Campaka flowers also appear in the empty space, and in the empty space of Jetavana (Jetavana, shortened name of Jetavana Anathapindika's Monastery), all kinds of golden and jeweled bells appear.' At that time, the boy bowed at the feet of the World Honored One and reported: 'World Honored One! Please accept the food that I offer to the World Honored One today, as well as the Bhikkhus (Bhikkhu, Buddhist monks), the king, and the attendants, and universally accept my offerings.' The World Honored One silently accepted the invitation. Waiting for the time to strike the Ghaṇṭā (Ghaṇṭā, a bell used in monasteries to gather the assembly), the World Honored One sat down peacefully, and the Bhikkhus, the king, and the ministers sat down in order. At this time, the most subtle wisdom arose, recalling: 'When I was born in the past, a golden plate appeared, filled with heavenly delicacies, and I hope that it can appear now, so that I can offer it to the Buddha.' After thinking this, the golden plate from his previous life appeared according to his thought, and various heavenly delicacies filled the plate. At that time, the boy held the golden plate and personally offered the food. At that time, after the World Honored One, the Bhikkhus, the king, and the attendants had eaten their fill, the boy with golden radiance was overjoyed, bowed at the feet of the World Honored One, and generated the mind of Anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi (Anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi, the mind of unsurpassed, complete, and perfect enlightenment): 'From now on, may my roots of goodness increase, may I sincerely make vows, may I widely practice the Dharma and save sentient beings, and may I attain Buddhahood only after that.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
