English version The Sutra of Golden Light King Child Spoken by the Buddha Translated by Tripitaka Master Fa Xian, Minister of the Honglu Temple and Great Teacher of Manifest Teaching, under Imperial Order, from the Western Regions. Thus have I heard: At one time, the Buddha was in the Nigrodha Grove Vihara (monastery) in Kapilavastu (迦毗罗城). At that time, there was a boy named Suvarnaprabhasa-kumara (金光王童子) in the Shakya clan. His appearance was dignified and handsome, his body was perfectly formed, his radiance shone like the sun and moon, his intelligence was extraordinary, and his talent surpassed others. He naturally respected others and was diligent and assiduous. His teachers and elders used the precepts to discipline his mind. He possessed all kinds of rare and precious treasures; although he often enjoyed them, he was not greedy or attached. He lived in the palace with his family, concubines, and female entertainers, numbering one thousand five hundred people, constantly enjoying happiness. At that time, the boy suddenly heard someone say one day: 'The World Honored One, in the past, in order to see the suffering of the cycle of rebirth in the Three Realms, renounced the throne of a Chakravartin (wheel-turning king) and practiced asceticism. He perfected the Buddha's path, sat under the Bodhi tree, subdued the four kinds of demons, and attained Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (unexcelled complete enlightenment).' Upon hearing this, the boy was overjoyed and immediately led his family and attendants, surrounded by them, to the place where the Buddha was. Seeing the gate of the vihara from afar, he removed his arrogance and proceeded on foot with all his family members. Upon arriving at the Buddha's place, he joined his palms and prostrated himself, praising the Buddha, saying: 'The body of the Tathagata (如来) is like a golden mountain, and like a jeweled banner adorned with various treasures. His face is like the autumn moon, perfect and pure, possessing the thirty-two major marks and eighty minor characteristics. His light shines far and wide like a thousand suns. He is noble and auspicious, possessing great wisdom, diligent and courageous, possessing great merit, and complete with both blessings and wisdom. He knows all dharmas (法), cuts off all doubts, possesses all wisdom, is the teacher of humans and devas (天), is the father of the Three Realms, saves all sentient beings, and appears in the world, bringing joy to those who see him.' At this time, after the boy finished these praises, he circumambulated the Buddha three times, prostrated himself at the Buddha's feet, and then sat down to one side, desiring to hear the wonderful Dharma (法). He also thought in his heart: 'I was born in the royal palace and have such blessings. What is the cause and effect of having such great power?' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ”

尔时，世尊知金光童子心中所念，及在会众愿欲闻法，便为广说十二因缘及四圣谛。初中后善言辞巧妙，其义深远纯一无杂，具足清白梵行之相。演是法已，复说金光童子本生因果报应之事。谓童子曰：“往昔过去九十一劫，有毗婆尸如来、应供、正遍知、明行足、善逝、世间解、无上士、调御丈夫、天人师、佛、世尊，出于世间，说法教化利乐众生，作佛事已，即趣涅盘。 “时有一人种田为业，虽复勤苦而常不足，然于众善好乐修习，于身口分减积财贿，作毗婆尸像以用供养，所获果报我今说之。 “诸苾刍！彼田业人所获之福，于百千生为转轮圣王王四天下，乘空飞行具足七宝，得大自在身放光明，生生之中受最上乐。受此福已，又生六欲天中为彼天主，经百千生受大快乐；又百千生为梵天王，百千生为净光天主；百千生为四无色界主，于如是时受天妙乐，后降人间生刹帝利、婆罗门、毗舍之族，常处王位得大自在。 “诸苾刍！今此童子从天界来，又生王宫，先作福业无能侵损，亦无堕落，后获无漏证于寂灭。 “诸苾刍！其造像人即金光童子是，所有因果我已说之。又复有人，或以玻胝迦宝或末尼宝，或金或银或鍮或铜，乃至木石或象牙等，铸写雕镂作佛形像；或有舍 现代汉语译本： 这时，世尊知道金光童子（Suvarnaprabhasa Kumara，指一位菩萨）心中所想，以及在法会的大众希望听闻佛法，便为他们广泛地宣说了十二因缘（十二因缘，佛教关于生命轮回的理论）和四圣谛（四圣谛，佛教的基本教义）。佛陀的言辞从开始到最后都善妙，其义理深刻而纯粹，没有丝毫杂染，具足清净的梵行之相。演说此法之后，又讲述了金光童子过去生中的因果报应之事。佛陀对童子说：‘在过去九十一劫之前，有毗婆尸如来（Vipasyin，过去七佛之一）、应供（Arhat，值得供养的人）、正遍知（Samyaksambuddha，完全觉悟的人）、明行足（Vidyacharana-sampanna，具有智慧和德行的人）、善逝（Sugata，以善妙的方式逝去的人）、世间解（Lokavidu，了解世界的人）、无上士（Anuttara，无与伦比的人）、调御丈夫（Purushadamyasarathi，调伏众生的人）、天人师（Shasta Devanam Manusyanam，天和人的导师）、佛（Buddha，觉悟者）、世尊（Bhagavan，受人尊敬的人）出现于世间，说法教化，利益安乐众生，完成佛事之后，便进入涅盘（Nirvana，解脱）。’ ‘当时有一个人以种田为业，虽然勤劳辛苦，但生活常常困窘，然而他对于各种善事却非常乐于修习，从自己的衣食中节省出财物，塑造毗婆尸佛的佛像用来供养，他所获得的果报我现在为你们说一说。’ ‘诸位比丘（Bhikkhu，佛教僧侣）！那位种田人为供养佛像所获得的福报，使他在百千生中成为转轮圣王（Chakravartin，统治世界的理想君主），统治四大部洲（四天下，指整个世界），乘坐飞行于空中的轮宝，具足七宝（七宝，珍贵的宝物），得到大自在，身体放出光明，生生世世享受最上等的快乐。享受这些福报之后，又转生到六欲天（六欲天，佛教中的六个天界）中做天主，经历百千生享受巨大的快乐；又在百千生中做梵天王（Brahma，婆罗门教和佛教中的高级神祇），百千生中做净光天主；百千生中做四无**主（四无**，色界天的最高层），在这些时候享受天界的妙乐，之后降生到人间，出生于刹帝利（Kshatriya，印度教的武士阶层）、婆罗门（Brahmana，印度教的祭司阶层）、毗舍（Vaishya，印度教的商人阶层）等种姓，常常处于王位，得到大自在。’ ‘诸位比丘！现在这位金光童子就是从天界而来，又出生在王宫之中，因为他过去所作的福德善业，没有人能够侵损，也不会堕落恶道，最终将获得无漏智慧，证得寂灭涅盘。’ ‘诸位比丘！那位造像的人就是现在的金光童子，他过去所作的因和现在所受的果，我已经为你们说完了。’佛陀又说，‘如果有人用玻胝迦宝（Sphatika，水晶）、末尼宝（Mani，如意宝）、金、银、鍮（一种合金）、铜，乃至木头、石头或者象牙等材料，铸造、雕刻佛的形像；或者有人舍'

English version: At that time, the World Honored One (Bhagavan, the Blessed One) knew the thoughts in the mind of Suvarnaprabhasa Kumara (Golden Light Youth, referring to a Bodhisattva), and that the assembly wished to hear the Dharma (Buddhist teachings), so he extensively explained the Twelve Nidanas (Twelve Links of Dependent Origination, the Buddhist theory of the cycle of life) and the Four Noble Truths (Four Noble Truths, the basic teachings of Buddhism). The Buddha's words were good from beginning to end, the meaning was profound and pure, without any impurities, possessing the characteristics of pure Brahmacharya (Brahmacharya, pure conduct). After expounding this Dharma, he also spoke of the causes and effects of the past lives of Suvarnaprabhasa Kumara. The Buddha said to the youth: 'In the past, ninety-one kalpas (kalpas, eons) ago, there was Vipasyin Tathagata (Vipasyin, one of the past seven Buddhas), Arhat (Arhat, one who is worthy of offerings), Samyaksambuddha (Samyaksambuddha, a fully enlightened one), Vidyacharana-sampanna (Vidyacharana-sampanna, one who possesses wisdom and virtue), Sugata (Sugata, one who has gone well), Lokavidu (Lokavidu, one who understands the world), Anuttara (Anuttara, the unsurpassed one), Purushadamyasarathi (Purushadamyasarathi, one who tames beings), Shasta Devanam Manusyanam (Shasta Devanam Manusyanam, teacher of gods and humans), Buddha (Buddha, the awakened one), Bhagavan (Bhagavan, the revered one) appeared in the world, teaching and transforming, benefiting and bringing happiness to sentient beings, and after completing the Buddha's work, he entered Nirvana (Nirvana, liberation).' 'At that time, there was a person who made a living by farming. Although he was diligent and hardworking, he was often in need. However, he was very happy to practice various good deeds, saving money from his food and clothing to make an image of Vipasyin Buddha for offering. I will now tell you about the rewards he received.' 'Bhikkhus (Bhikkhu, Buddhist monks)! The merit that the farmer gained from making offerings to the Buddha image caused him to become a Chakravartin (Chakravartin, an ideal monarch who rules the world) in hundreds of thousands of lives, ruling the four continents (four continents, referring to the entire world), riding on a flying wheel, possessing the seven treasures (seven treasures, precious jewels), obtaining great freedom, and emitting light from his body, enjoying the highest happiness in every life. After enjoying these blessings, he was reborn in the six desire realms (six desire realms, six heavens in Buddhism) as the lord of those heavens, enjoying great happiness for hundreds of thousands of lives; and for hundreds of thousands of lives he was the Brahma King (Brahma, a high-ranking deity in Brahmanism and Buddhism), for hundreds of thousands of lives he was the lord of the Pure Light Heaven; for hundreds of thousands of lives he was the lord of the Four Immaterial Realms (Four Immaterial Realms, the highest level of the Form Realm), enjoying the wonderful pleasures of the heavens at these times, and then descending to the human world, born into the Kshatriya (Kshatriya, the warrior class in Hinduism), Brahmana (Brahmana, the priestly class in Hinduism), and Vaishya (Vaishya, the merchant class in Hinduism) castes, always in a position of power, obtaining great freedom.' 'Bhikkhus! This Suvarnaprabhasa Kumara has come from the heavens and was born in a royal palace because of the meritorious deeds he performed in the past. No one can harm him, and he will not fall into evil realms. Eventually, he will attain the wisdom free from outflows and realize the peace of Nirvana.' 'Bhikkhus! The person who made the image is the current Suvarnaprabhasa Kumara. I have already told you about the causes he made in the past and the effects he is experiencing now.' The Buddha further said, 'If someone uses Sphatika (Sphatika, crystal), Mani (Mani, wish-fulfilling jewel), gold, silver, brass (an alloy), copper, or even wood, stone, or ivory to cast or carve the image of the Buddha; or if someone gives' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
