English version: (The Buddha) went to tell all the Bhikṣus (monks), saying: 'The Tathāgata (如来，one of the Buddha's titles) will go to the Śīta-vana (尸陀林，meaning 'cold forest', a cemetery). You Bhikṣus who are diligent, should each put on your Kasaya (袈裟，monastic robe), attend and follow the Tathāgata to the Śīta-vana.' At that time, Ānanda (阿难，one of the Buddha's ten great disciples, known for his memory) received the Buddha's command and immediately went to the places of all the Bhikṣus. Having arrived, he said: 'The Buddha commands all Bhikṣus that the Tathāgata will go to the Śīta-vana. You Bhikṣus who are diligent, should each put on your Kasaya, attend and follow the Tathāgata to the Śīta-vana.' At that time, venerable Ājñāta Kauṇḍinya (阿若憍陈如，the first of the five disciples), Aśvajit (马胜，one of the five disciples), Vaśpa (嚩涩波，one of the five disciples), Mahānāman (大名，one of the five disciples), Bhadrka (跋捺哩迦，one of the five disciples), Śāriputra (舍利子，one of the Buddha's ten great disciples, known for his wisdom), Maudgalyāyana (目乾连，one of the Buddha's ten great disciples, known for his supernatural powers), Kāśyapa (迦叶，one of the Buddha's disciples, known for his ascetic practices), Pūrṇa (满称，one of the Buddha's disciples, known for his eloquence), and other great Śrāvakas (声闻，disciples who hear the Buddha's teachings) received the Buddha's command and immediately, according to the usual practice, put on their Kasayas and came to the Buddha's place. At that time, the Bhagavan (世尊，one of the Buddha's titles) with all the great assembly, surrounded before and behind, went to the Śīta-vana. Those who were well-tamed were surrounded by the tamed; those who were liberated were surrounded by the liberated; those who were peaceful were surrounded by the peaceful; those who observed the precepts were surrounded by those who observed the precepts; those who were worthy of offerings were surrounded by those who were worthy of offerings; those who were free from greed were surrounded by those who were free from greed; those who had beautiful and upright appearances were surrounded by those who had beautiful and upright appearances.

The Tathagata's faculties are tamed, gentle, and compliant, his demeanor is dignified and solemn, free from any defects, like the king of elephants whose seven limbs firmly support the ground, level, complete, and free from all faults. The Tathagata is endowed with the thirty-two major marks and eighty minor marks, supremely wonderful and adorned, with a pure form, none can surpass him, his radiant light is blazing, shining widely, like the light of one sun appearing among a thousand suns. Furthermore, like a precious mountain rising high, everything is most supreme, universally virtuous and good, possessing the ten powers, four fearlessnesses, three protections, three establishments of mindfulness, and great compassion, etc., all meritorious dharmas are fully complete. At that time, there were also countless Bhikshu assemblies, and countless hundreds of thousands of people, surrounding and following the Buddha to Sitavana (cremation ground). When the Buddha walked, there were eighteen kinds of dharmas that could be praised. What are the eighteen? First, no fear of fire; second, no fear of water; third, no fear of lions; fourth, no fear of tigers; fifth, no fear of sea disasters; sixth, no fear of other armies; seventh, no fear of thieves; eighth, no fear of royal calamities; ninth, no fear of evil people; tenth, no fear of customs duties, ferries, roads, etc.; eleventh, no fear of humans; twelfth, no fear of non-humans; thirteenth, no fear of untimely events; fourteenth, the divine eye and divine ear truly see and hear; fifteenth, the establishment of light shines widely; sixteenth, freedom with regard to the Dharma; seventeenth, freedom with regard to people; eighteenth, no sickness or afflictions, etc. Such good dharmas are fully present wherever the Buddha goes.

西天译经三藏朝奉大夫试光禄卿传法大师赐紫臣施护奉诏 译 尔时王舍城中，有二童子：一姓婆罗门；一姓刹帝利，其刹帝利童子，名曰寿命。 是二童子，从王舍城出，于其路左，共为戏剧。彼寿命童子，久发正信；婆罗门童子，不具正信，乃谓寿命童子言：“我闻世尊先说：‘善贤长者妻当生子，其后生已，家族富盛，最上吉祥，现于人中受天胜福，乃至最后，于我法中出家学道，断诸烦恼，证阿罗汉。’彼善贤妻，已趣命终，子必随灭，长者亲属，送置尸陀林中。我知是事，岂非世尊说妄语邪？” 时寿命童子，即为婆罗门童子，说伽陀曰： “日月星宿可坠地， 山石从地可飞空， 海水渊深可令枯， 佛语决定无虚妄。” 是时，婆罗门童子闻是伽陀已，谓寿命童子言：“汝或不信，我今同汝，往尸陀林，审观是事。” 于是，世尊从王舍城，次第而行。彼二童子，犹在路左，共为戏剧。时寿命童子，遥见世尊大众围绕，以宿善根故，即说伽陀曰： “希有大牟尼， 离诸动乱相， 人天大众俱， 次第而围绕； 以师子吼音， 能破诸外论， 善断众疑网， 最上难得见 现代汉语译本 《佛说光明童子因缘经》 佛说光明童子因缘经卷第二 西天译经三藏朝奉大夫试光禄卿传法大师赐紫臣施护奉诏译 当时，在王舍城中，有两个童子：一个是婆罗门种姓，一个是刹帝利种姓。那位刹帝利童子，名叫寿命（Ayus）。 这两个童子从王舍城出来，在路边一起玩耍。寿命童子早就生起了真正的信仰；婆罗门童子没有真正的信仰，就对寿命童子说：‘我听说世尊之前说过：‘善贤长者的妻子将会生一个儿子，他出生后，家族会变得富裕兴盛，最为吉祥，在人间享受胜过天人的福报，乃至最后，会在我的佛法中出家学道，断除各种烦恼，证得阿罗汉果。’现在善贤的妻子已经去世，她的儿子必定也随之夭折，长者的亲属将她送到尸陀林（Sitavana，墓地）。我知道这件事，难道不是世尊说了妄语吗？’ 当时，寿命童子就为婆罗门童子说了这首伽陀（gatha，偈颂）： ‘日月星辰可以坠落到地上，山石可以从地上飞到空中， 深邃的海水可以干涸，佛说的话是绝对真实，不会有虚妄。’ 当时，婆罗门童子听了这首伽陀后，对寿命童子说：‘你或许不相信，我现在和你一起去尸陀林，仔细观察这件事。’ 这时，世尊从王舍城依次行走。那两个童子还在路边一起玩耍。当时寿命童子，远远地看见世尊被大众围绕，因为过去种下的善根，就说了这首伽陀： ‘希有伟大的牟尼（Muni，圣人），远离各种动乱的表象， 人天大众一起，次第地围绕着他； 用狮子吼般的声音，能够破除各种外道的理论， 善于断除大众的疑惑，是最上难以见到的。’

English version The Sutra of the Causal Conditions of the Light-Giving Youth Spoken by the Buddha Volume Two of the Sutra of the Causal Conditions of the Light-Giving Youth Spoken by the Buddha Translated by Shi Hu, the Tripiṭaka Master, Great Master of the Transmission of Dharma, Minister of Purple Robe Conferred by Imperial Order, Acting Vice President of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices of the Western Heaven Translation Bureau At that time, in the city of Rajagriha (Wangshecheng), there were two youths: one of the Brahmin caste and one of the Kshatriya caste. The Kshatriya youth was named Ayus (Shouming). These two youths came out of Rajagriha and were playing together on the left side of the road. The youth Ayus had long developed true faith; the Brahmin youth did not have true faith, and said to Ayus: 'I heard the World-Honored One previously say: 'The wife of the virtuous and wise elder will give birth to a son, and after he is born, the family will become wealthy and prosperous, most auspicious, enjoying blessings in the human realm that surpass those of the heavens, and even in the end, he will leave home and study the Way in my Dharma, cut off all afflictions, and attain Arhatship.' Now that the wife of the virtuous and wise elder has already passed away, her son will surely perish with her, and the elder's relatives will send her to the Sitavana (Shituolin, charnel ground). I know this matter, isn't it that the World-Honored One spoke falsely?' At that time, the youth Ayus spoke this gatha (ji tuo, verse) for the Brahmin youth: 'The sun, moon, and stars may fall to the earth, Mountains and rocks may fly from the earth into the sky, The deep sea may dry up, But the Buddha's words are definitely true and without falsehood.' At that time, the Brahmin youth, having heard this gatha, said to the youth Ayus: 'Perhaps you do not believe, I will now go with you to the Sitavana to carefully observe this matter.' At this time, the World-Honored One was proceeding from Rajagriha in sequence. The two youths were still playing together on the left side of the road. At that time, the youth Ayus, seeing the World-Honored One surrounded by the great assembly from afar, because of the good roots planted in the past, spoke this gatha: 'Rare and wonderful is the great Muni (Mouni, sage), free from all disturbing appearances, The assembly of humans and gods together, sequentially surround him; With a lion's roar-like voice, able to break all externalist theories, Skillfully cutting off the doubts of the assembly, the most supreme and difficult to see.' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 。 佛往尸陀林， 威仪相可观， 如风飘密雪， 清冷而遍空。 释迦牟尼尊！ 现光明变化， 刹那瞻睹者， 随应获利益。”
