术教之。而耆婆但行嬉戏，未曾受学，诸师责谓之曰：“医术鄙陋，诚非太子至尊所宜当学，然大王之命，不可违废。受敕以来积有日月，而太子初不受半言之方，王若问我，我当何对？” 耆婆曰：“我生而有医证在手，故白大王捐弃荣豪，求学医术，岂复懈怠须师督促？直以诸师之道，无足学者故耳。”便取本草药方针脉诸经，具难问师。师穷无以答，皆下为耆婆作礼，长跪叉手曰：“今日密知太子神圣，实非我等所及也。向所问诸事，皆是我师历世疑义所不能通，愿太子具悉说之，开解我等生年之结。”耆婆便为解说其义，诸医欢喜，皆悉更起，头面作礼，承受其法。 于是耆婆便行治病，所治辄愈，国内知名。后欲入宫，于宫门前，逢一小儿担樵，耆婆望视，悉见此儿五脏肠胃缕悉分明。耆婆心念：“本草经说，有药王树，从外照内见人腹脏。此儿樵中，得无有药王耶？”即往问儿：“卖樵几钱？”儿曰：“十钱。”便雇儿十钱，儿下樵置地，则更闇冥不复见其腹中。耆婆心更思惟：“不知束中何者为是药王？”便解两束，一一取之以着儿腹上，无所照见辄复更取；如是尽两束樵，最后有一小枝裁长尺余，试取以照，即复具见腹内，耆婆大喜，知此小枝定是药王，悉还儿樵。儿即已得钱，樵又如 现代汉语译本：老师们教导耆婆（Jivaka，人名，意为‘ জীবিত ’，佛陀时代的著名医生），但耆婆只是嬉戏玩耍，从未认真学习。老师们责备他说：‘医术是低贱的技艺，实在不适合太子这样尊贵的人学习，但是大王的命令，又不能违背。自从接受命令以来，已经过去很多时日，而太子您却连半句医方都没有学到，如果大王问起我们，我们该如何回答呢？’ 耆婆说：‘我生来就具备行医的资质，所以才禀告大王，放弃荣华富贵，来学习医术，难道还会懈怠到需要老师督促的地步吗？只是因为各位老师的医术，没有什么值得我学习的地方罢了。’于是他就拿起本草、药方、针灸等医书，向老师们提出各种疑难问题。老师们理屈词穷，无法回答，都下座向耆婆行礼，长跪合掌说：‘今天我们才知道太子如此神圣，实在不是我们所能及的。您刚才所问的那些问题，都是我们老师历代以来都无法解决的疑难，希望太子能够详细地为我们解说，解开我们多年的疑惑。’耆婆便为他们解说了其中的含义，众位医生都非常高兴，都起身，向耆婆叩头作揖，接受他的教法。 于是耆婆就开始行医治病，凡是他治疗的病人，都能很快痊愈，因此在国内声名远扬。后来他要入宫，在宫门前，遇到一个小孩正在挑柴，耆婆望向他，竟然能够清楚地看到这个小孩的五脏六腑，以及肠胃的纹路。耆婆心想：‘本草经上说，有一种药王树，可以从外面照见人的腹脏。这个小孩的柴火中，莫非有药王树？’于是就上前问小孩：‘这柴卖多少钱？’小孩说：‘十个钱。’耆婆就雇佣小孩，给了他十个钱。小孩放下柴，放在地上，耆婆就再也看不见小孩的腹脏了。耆婆心中更加思索：‘不知道这柴火中哪一根是药王？’于是就解开两捆柴，一根一根地取出来，放在小孩的肚子上，如果不能照见，就再换一根；就这样把两捆柴都试完了，最后有一根小树枝，大约一尺多长，试着用它来照，立刻又能够清楚地看到小孩的腹内，耆婆非常高兴，知道这根小树枝一定是药王，就把所有的柴都还给了小孩。小孩已经得到了钱，柴又

English version: The teachers instructed Jivaka (meaning 'living', a famous physician in the time of the Buddha), but Jivaka only played and never studied seriously. The teachers rebuked him, saying, 'Medical skills are a lowly art, truly not suitable for a prince as noble as you to learn, but the king's command cannot be disobeyed. Since receiving the order, many days have passed, and yet you have not learned even half a medical prescription. If the king asks us, what shall we answer?' Jivaka said, 'I was born with the qualifications to practice medicine, so I reported to the king, abandoning wealth and honor, to study medicine. Would I be so lazy as to need teachers to urge me on? It is simply that the skills of you teachers are not worth learning.' Then he took up the herbal medicine books, prescriptions, acupuncture manuals, and other medical texts, and posed various difficult questions to the teachers. The teachers were at a loss for words and could not answer. They all descended from their seats and bowed to Jivaka, kneeling with their palms together, saying, 'Today we know that you are truly divine, far beyond our reach. The questions you asked are the doubts that our teachers have been unable to resolve for generations. We hope that you can explain them to us in detail, resolving our doubts of many years.' Jivaka then explained the meanings to them. All the doctors were very happy, and they all rose, bowed their heads, and received his teachings. Then Jivaka began to practice medicine, and all the patients he treated quickly recovered, so he became famous throughout the country. Later, when he was about to enter the palace, he encountered a child carrying firewood in front of the palace gate. Jivaka looked at him and could clearly see the child's five internal organs, as well as the patterns of his intestines and stomach. Jivaka thought to himself, 'The herbal medicine scriptures say that there is a medicine king tree that can illuminate a person's abdomen from the outside. Could there be a medicine king tree in this child's firewood?' So he went up and asked the child, 'How much do you sell this firewood for?' The child said, 'Ten coins.' Jivaka hired the child and gave him ten coins. The child put down the firewood on the ground, and Jivaka could no longer see the child's abdomen. Jivaka pondered even more, 'I wonder which of these firewood sticks is the medicine king?' So he untied two bundles of firewood, took them out one by one, and placed them on the child's stomach. If he could not see through, he would change another one. In this way, he tried all the firewood in the two bundles. Finally, there was a small branch, about a foot long. When he tried to use it to illuminate, he could immediately see the child's abdomen clearly again. Jivaka was very happy, knowing that this small branch must be the medicine king, and returned all the firewood to the child. The child had already received the money, and the firewood was -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 故，欢喜而去。

尔时，国中有迦罗越家女，年十五，临当嫁日，忽头痛而死。耆婆闻之，往至其家问女父：“此女常有何病，乃至致死？”父曰：“女小有头痛疾，日月增甚，今朝发作尤甚于常，以致绝命。” 耆婆便进，以药王照视头中，见有刺虫，大小相生，乃数百头，钻食其脑，脑尽故死。便以金刀，㓟破其头悉出诸虫，封着罂中。以三种神膏涂疮，一种者补虫所食骨间之伤；一种生脑；一种治外刀疮。告女父曰：“好令安静慎莫使惊，七日当愈平复如故，到其日，我当复来。” 耆婆适去，女母便啼哭曰：“我子为再死也，岂有㓟破头医脑，当复活者？父何忍命他人取子那尔？”父止之曰：“耆婆生而把持针药，弃国尊位，行作医师，但为一切人命故耳，此乃天之医王，岂当妄耶！嘱语汝言：‘慎莫使惊。’而汝今反啼哭，以惊动之，将令此儿不复得生耶！”母闻父言，止不复哭，供养护之，寂静七日。 七日晨明，女便吹气而寤，如从卧觉曰：“我今者了不复头痛，身体皆安。谁护我者，使得如是？”父曰：“汝前已死，医王耆婆，故来护汝，破头出虫，以得更生。”便开罂出虫示之。女见便大惊怖，深自侥幸曰：“耆婆神乃如是，我以何报其恩？”父曰：“耆婆与我期言：‘ 于是，他们欢喜地离开了。 当时，国中有一户迦罗越家（Kalaveta，人名）的女儿，年方十五，正要出嫁的时候，忽然头痛而死。耆婆（Jivaka，医生）听说了这件事，前往她家，问她的父亲：‘这个女儿平时有什么病，以至于死亡？’父亲说：‘女儿稍微有些头痛的毛病，每天都在加重，今天早上发作得比平时更厉害，以至于断了气。’ 耆婆便走上前，用药王之眼观察她的头部，看见有刺虫，大小相生，竟然有数百只，钻食她的脑髓，脑髓被吃光了所以死了。便用金刀，剖开她的头部，把所有的虫子都取出来，封在瓦罐中。用三种神膏涂抹伤口，一种用来修补虫子所吃的骨头之间的损伤；一种用来生脑；一种用来治疗外面的刀伤。告诉女子的父亲说：‘好好地让她安静，千万不要让她受到惊吓，七天就会痊愈恢复如初，到那一天，我再来。’ 耆婆刚离开，女子的母亲便啼哭着说：‘我的女儿又要死一次了吗，哪里有剖开头颅医治脑髓，还能复活的？你父亲怎么忍心让别人这样对待我的女儿？’父亲阻止她说：‘耆婆从小就拿着针药，放弃了国家的尊贵地位，做医生，只是为了救一切人的性命啊，这是天上的医王，怎么会胡来呢！他嘱咐我们说：‘千万不要让她受到惊吓。’而你现在反而啼哭，来惊动她，这将使这个孩子不能再活过来了！’母亲听了父亲的话，停止了哭泣，供养保护她，安静地度过了七天。 七天后的早晨，女子便呼出一口气醒了过来，好像从睡梦中醒来一样说：‘我现在一点也不头痛了，身体都很好。是谁在保护我，使我能够这样？’父亲说：‘你之前已经死了，是医王耆婆，特意来保护你，剖开你的头取出虫子，你才得以更生。’便打开瓦罐，把虫子给她看。女子看见后非常惊恐，深深地感到侥幸说：‘耆婆的神力竟然是这样，我用什么来报答他的恩情呢？’父亲说：‘耆婆与我约定说：’

Therefore, they departed joyfully. At that time, in the kingdom, there was a daughter of the Kalaveta (family name) household, fifteen years old. On the day she was to be married, she suddenly died from a headache. Jivaka (physician) heard of this and went to her house, asking the girl's father, 'What illness did this girl usually have that led to her death?' The father said, 'The girl had a slight headache, which increased daily. This morning it was worse than usual, leading to her death.' Jivaka then stepped forward and, using his 'medicine king' vision, examined her head. He saw parasitic worms, large and small, numbering several hundred, drilling into and consuming her brain. Her brain was completely eaten, hence her death. He then used a golden knife to cut open her head, removing all the worms and sealing them in a jar. He applied three kinds of divine ointment to the wound: one to repair the damage to the bone caused by the worms; one to regenerate the brain; and one to heal the external knife wound. He told the girl's father, 'Keep her quiet and do not let her be startled. She will recover completely in seven days. On that day, I will return.' As soon as Jivaka left, the girl's mother began to weep, saying, 'Is my daughter going to die a second time? How can someone who has had their head cut open and brain treated be revived? How can you, her father, bear to let someone treat our daughter like this?' The father stopped her, saying, 'Jivaka has been holding needles and medicine since he was young, abandoning his noble position in the kingdom to practice medicine, solely for the sake of saving all lives. He is a heavenly medicine king; how could he be wrong! He instructed you, saying, 'Do not let her be startled.' But now you are crying, startling her, which will prevent this child from being reborn!' Upon hearing her father's words, the mother stopped crying, cared for and protected her, and kept her quiet for seven days. On the morning of the seventh day, the girl breathed and awoke, as if waking from a sleep, saying, 'I no longer have a headache, and my body feels well. Who has been protecting me, allowing me to be like this?' The father said, 'You were previously dead, but the medicine king Jivaka came to protect you, cutting open your head and removing the worms, so that you could be reborn.' He then opened the jar and showed her the worms. Upon seeing them, the girl was greatly frightened and deeply grateful, saying, 'Jivaka's divine power is such! How can I repay his kindness?' The father said, 'Jivaka made an appointment with me, saying,' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
