母同其火焚,乃至今生,亦复如是。然于毗婆尸佛所,先种善根,及发大愿,今已成熟,为大富长者,一切具足。现于人中,受天胜福,所作善利,乃至威力等事,与彼毗婆尸佛时,等无有异。而今最后于我法中,出家学道,断诸烦恼,证阿罗汉。   “诸苾刍!以是因缘,汝等当知,一切众生,若造一黑业因,决定当受一黑业报;若造一白业因,决定当受一白业报。是故,诸苾刍!若黑业因、若白业因,一一果报,决定无失,当知皆是自分所作。汝等诸苾刍,应如是修学。”   佛说此经已,诸苾刍众,闻佛所说,皆大欢喜,信受奉行。   佛说光明童子因缘经卷第四 现代汉语译本:如同母亲和火一同焚烧,直到今生,也是这样。然而在毗婆尸佛(Vipasyin Buddha)那里,先种下了善根,并且发下了大愿,现在已经成熟,成为了大富有的长者,一切都具备。现在在人间,享受着胜过天人的福报,所做的善事利益,乃至威力等等事情,和毗婆尸佛(Vipasyin Buddha)时代一样,没有什么不同。而现在最终在我的佛法中,出家学道,断除各种烦恼,证得阿罗汉(Arhat)果位。 ‘各位比丘(Bhikkhus),因为这个因缘,你们应当知道,一切众生,如果造作一个黑业的因,必定会承受一个黑业的果报;如果造作一个白业的因,必定会承受一个白业的果报。所以,各位比丘(Bhikkhus),无论是黑业的因,还是白业的因,每一个果报,都必定不会遗失,应当知道这都是自己所作的。你们各位比丘(Bhikkhus),应当这样修学。’ 佛说完这部经后,各位比丘(Bhikkhus)众,听了佛所说的,都非常欢喜,相信并接受,并且奉行。 《佛说光明童子因缘经》卷第四

English

English version: Just like being burned together with his mother by the fire, even until this present life, it is still the same. However, in the presence of Vipasyin Buddha (Vipasyin Buddha), he first planted good roots and made great vows, which have now matured, making him a very wealthy elder, possessing everything. Now, in the human realm, he enjoys blessings surpassing those of the gods, and the good deeds, benefits, and even power he possesses are no different from those in the time of Vipasyin Buddha (Vipasyin Buddha). And now, finally, within my Dharma, he has renounced the household life, studied the Way, severed all afflictions, and attained the state of an Arhat (Arhat). ‘Bhikkhus (Bhikkhus)! Because of this cause and condition, you should know that all sentient beings, if they create a cause of dark karma, will definitely receive a result of dark karma; if they create a cause of white karma, they will definitely receive a result of white karma. Therefore, Bhikkhus (Bhikkhus)! Whether it is a cause of dark karma or a cause of white karma, each and every result will definitely not be lost; you should know that all of these are what you have done yourself. You Bhikkhus (Bhikkhus), should cultivate and learn in this way.’ After the Buddha finished speaking this Sutra, all the Bhikkhus (Bhikkhus) present, hearing what the Buddha had said, were greatly delighted, believed and accepted it, and practiced accordingly.
