English version: The Kṣemāvatī Prophecy Sutra Translated by Bodhiruci of the Yuan Wei Dynasty, from North India Thus have I heard: At one time, the Buddha was dwelling on Gṛdhrakūṭa (Vulture Peak) Mountain in Rājagṛha (Royal City), together with twenty thousand great Bhikṣus. There were also many Bodhisattvas, such as Maitreya (The Loving One) Bodhisattva, Mañjuśrī (Gentle Glory) and other great Bodhisattvas. At that time, the World-Honored One, in the early morning, put on his robes, held his bowl, and with Maitreya Bodhisattva following behind, entered the great city of Rājagṛha to beg for food. Subsequently, they went to the palace of King Bimbisāra (He of the Bimba Tree), and upon arriving, prepared to enter. At that time, (the Buddha) saw Queen Kṣemāvatī (She Who is Secure and Prosperous), the wife of King Bimbisāra, on the upper floor of a high building. Upon seeing the World-Honored One, Kṣemāvatī's mind became even more pure. She descended from the building and spread out a priceless garment called Pāṭuna (Cloth) as the Tathāgata's seat, while Maitreya Bodhisattva sat on a niṣīdana (sitting cloth). At that time, both the World-Honored One and Maitreya Bodhisattva were seated. Then, Queen Kṣemāvatī, adorned with all kinds of ornaments, prostrated at the feet of the World-Honored One, and also paid homage to Maitreya Bodhisattva. She sat respectfully before the World-Honored One, her heart filled with reverence, desiring to hear the Dharma. At that time, the World-Honored One, seeing that Queen Kṣemāvatī had adorned her body with all kinds of ornaments, and wishing to benefit all beings and bring prosperity to all beings, knowingly asked Queen Kṣemāvatī: 'Kṣemāvatī! What is the name of that tree? You are wearing such a colorful, supremely radiant, dignified, and wonderful fruit.' At that time, Queen Kṣemāvatī replied in verse: 'O foremost great hero, Knowing, you still ask me, What is the name of that tree, Whose fruit you see me wear? That tree is named Merit, Planted by me in past lives, This fruit is its result, Which I now partake of. Also, I have planted that tree, For the Pratyekabuddhas and Śrāvakas, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 安住菩提道, 求正觉者地。 施戒水湿润, 令彼树增长, 彼树增长已, 生此端严果。 忍辱精进力, 能增长彼树, 彼树增长已, 生此无垢果。 禅慧开敷花, 令彼树端严, 我今食此果, 如世尊所见。 如树林果等, 一切依止山, 枝叶等增长, 上下皆不动。 如是彼大树, 我前世善种, 利益诸众生, 为得诸佛法。 如是福德树, 我此唯其花, 我今且尔食, 果犹故在后。 第一菩提果, 无上佛菩提, 舍妇女劣身, 后必得彼果。 我当得丈夫, 众生中上上, 一切法彼岸, 一切智遍见。 我解脱众生, 一切苦怖畏, 一切当归我, 愍一切众生。”

尔时,世尊告王夫人差摩婆帝作如是言:“善哉!善哉!差摩婆帝!汝能如是利益多人,安乐多人,怜愍世间,饶益安乐一切大众诸天人等。” 时王夫人差摩婆帝,闻佛赞已,白言世尊:“世尊!此身三十二种大丈夫相、八十种好,何因缘得十如来力、四无所畏,及四无碍?复有十八不共佛法、大慈大悲、大喜大舍,如是种种无量无等不可说尽、无数佛法从何而生?” 时王夫人差摩婆帝如是问已,佛说偈言: 现代汉语译本: 安住于菩提道(Bodhi-mārga,觉悟之路),寻求正觉者的境界。 用布施和持戒之水滋润它,使那菩提树增长。 那菩提树增长后,便结出这端正庄严的果实。 忍辱和精进的力量,能够增长那菩提树。 那菩提树增长后,便结出这没有瑕疵的果实。 禅定和智慧开放出花朵,使那菩提树更加端庄。 我现在食用这果实,正如世尊(Śākyamuni,释迦牟尼)所见。 如同树林和果实等,一切都依止于山, 枝叶等得以增长,上下都不会动摇。 如同那棵大树,是我前世所种下的善因, 为了利益一切众生,为了获得诸佛的法。 如同这福德之树,我如今只采摘了它的花朵, 我现在且先食用这些花朵,果实仍然在后面。 第一的菩提果,无上的佛菩提(Buddha-bodhi,佛的觉悟), 舍弃这女子的卑微之身,将来必定能得到那果实。 我应当获得丈夫之身,成为众生中最殊胜的, 到达一切法的彼岸,以一切智慧遍照一切。 我将解脱众生,脱离一切痛苦和恐惧, 一切众生都应当归依我,我将怜悯一切众生。 这时,世尊(Śākyamuni,释迦牟尼)告诉王夫人差摩婆帝(Kṣemāvatī)这样说道:‘好啊!好啊!差摩婆帝(Kṣemāvatī)!你能够这样利益许多人,使许多人安乐,怜悯世间,饶益安乐一切大众、诸天人和等等。’ 当时,王夫人差摩婆帝(Kṣemāvatī),听了佛的赞叹后,禀告世尊(Śākyamuni,释迦牟尼)说:‘世尊(Śākyamuni,释迦牟尼)!这身体具有三十二种大丈夫相、八十种好,是由于什么因缘才能获得十如来力、四无所畏,以及四无碍辩才?又有十八不共佛法、大慈大悲、大喜大舍,像这样种种无量无等不可说尽、无数的佛法是从哪里产生的呢?’ 当时,王夫人差摩婆帝(Kṣemāvatī)这样问了之后,佛说了偈语:

English version: Abiding in the Bodhi-mārga (path to enlightenment), seeking the realm of the perfectly enlightened ones. With the water of generosity and discipline, moistening it, causing that tree to grow. That tree having grown, it bears this upright and beautiful fruit. The power of patience and diligence is able to make that tree grow. That tree having grown, it bears this flawless fruit. Meditation and wisdom open up flowers, making that tree even more beautiful. I now eat this fruit, as seen by the World Honored One (Śākyamuni). Like forests and fruits, all rely on the mountain, Branches and leaves grow, remaining unshaken above and below. Like that great tree, planted by me with good deeds in a previous life, To benefit all beings, to obtain the Dharma of all Buddhas. Like this tree of merit, I now only pick its flowers, I will eat these flowers for now, the fruit is still to come. The foremost Bodhi fruit, the unsurpassed Buddha-bodhi (Buddha's enlightenment), Abandoning this inferior body of a woman, I will surely obtain that fruit in the future. I shall obtain the body of a man, the most supreme among beings, Reaching the other shore of all Dharmas, with all-encompassing wisdom and vision. I will liberate beings, from all suffering and fear, All should return to me, I will have compassion for all beings. At that time, the World Honored One (Śākyamuni) said to Queen Kṣemāvatī, 'Excellent! Excellent! Kṣemāvatī! You are able to benefit many people in this way, bring peace and happiness to many, have compassion for the world, and benefit and bring peace and happiness to all the masses, gods, and humans.' At that time, Queen Kṣemāvatī, having heard the Buddha's praise, said to the World Honored One (Śākyamuni), 'World Honored One (Śākyamuni)! This body possesses the thirty-two marks of a great man and the eighty minor marks; by what causes and conditions does one obtain the ten Tathāgata powers, the four fearlessnesses, and the four unobstructed eloquence? Furthermore, from where do the eighteen unshared qualities of a Buddha, great loving-kindness, great compassion, great joy, and great equanimity, and such countless, unequaled, indescribable, and innumerable Buddha-dharmas arise?' At that time, after Queen Kṣemāvatī asked this, the Buddha spoke in verse: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “我亦复如是, 往世种彼树, 为利益众生, 悕求正觉智。 修行施戒忍, 精进禅和集, 复于一切时, 恒常习禅慧。 于一切众生, 不曾起恶心, 常行平等心, 今日得成佛。 常于爱不爱, 善友怨平等, 得平等心已, 福德树增长。 我此身大树, 摄无量功德, 曾为转轮王, 亦作帝释王, 复作大梵王, 种种多富乐, 不思议佛法, 相等今复得。”

时王夫人差摩婆帝,闻说如是诸功德已,赞言:“善哉!于世尊语极生随喜。”即向如来而说偈言: “如胜人中胜, 如是随顺学, 如本学善学, 无边功德海。 我今学佛学, 诸功德彼岸, 当离生死苦, 得如是牟尼。 我本诸生处, 曾修行布施, 愿彼一切福, 得佛无等智。 过现诸生处, 我护持禁戒, 愿彼一切福, 当得如来智。 我修忍精进, 三昧般若等, 愿如是一切, 皆成就佛法。 我身口意业, 所修行诸善, 愿得大菩提, 求佛智功德。 我舍妇女体, 得胜丈夫身, 得丈夫身已, 次第得佛身。 得胜菩提已, 转无上法轮, 与缚生死狱, 众生除解脱。” 现代汉语译本 ‘我也像这样,过去世种下那棵树,为了利益众生,希求证得正觉的智慧。 修行布施、持戒、忍辱,精进、禅定和智慧的集合,又在一切时候,恒常修习禅定和智慧。 对于一切众生,不曾生起恶心,常行平等心,今日得以成佛。 常常对于喜爱与不喜爱,善友与怨敌都平等对待,得到平等心之后,福德之树增长。 我这身体犹如大树,摄取无量功德,曾经做过转轮王,也做过帝释王(Deva King,天神之王),又做过大梵天王(Great Brahma King,色界之主),种种的富裕快乐,不可思议的佛法,如今再次获得。’ 当时国王的夫人差摩婆帝(Kshema,国王的夫人),听闻了这些功德后,赞叹说:‘太好了!对于世尊的话语极其随喜。’随即向如来说偈颂道: ‘如胜者中的胜者,像这样随顺学习,如根本所学那样善于学习,拥有无边的功德海。 我如今学习佛陀所学,到达诸功德的彼岸,应当脱离生死之苦,得到像牟尼(Muni,圣人)一样的境界。 我过去生生世世,曾经修行布施,愿那一切福德,使我获得佛陀无与伦比的智慧。 过去和现在生生世世,我护持禁戒,愿那一切福德,使我当获得如来的智慧。 我修习忍辱、精进,三昧(Samadhi,禅定)和般若(Prajna,智慧)等,愿像这样的一切,都成就佛法。 我身口意所造的业,所修行的诸善,愿我获得大菩提(Bodhi,觉悟),求得佛陀的智慧功德。 我舍弃妇女之身,得到殊胜的丈夫之身,得到丈夫之身后,次第获得佛身。 获得殊胜的菩提之后,转动无上的法轮,与被束缚在生死牢狱中的众生解除束缚,得到解脱。’

English version ‘I am also like this, in past lives I planted that tree, for the benefit of sentient beings, hoping to attain the wisdom of perfect enlightenment (Bodhi). Practicing giving, morality, and patience, diligence, meditation, and the collection of wisdom, and at all times, constantly practicing meditation and wisdom. Towards all sentient beings, I have never harbored evil thoughts, always practicing equanimity, and today I have attained Buddhahood. Often treating those I love and those I do not, good friends and enemies, with equanimity, and after attaining equanimity, the tree of merit grows. My body is like a great tree, encompassing immeasurable merits, having been a Chakravartin King (Universal Ruler), and also having been a Deva King (Indra, King of Gods), and also having been a Great Brahma King (Lord of the Form Realm), with all kinds of wealth and happiness, the inconceivable Buddha-dharma, now I have attained again.’ At that time, Queen Kshema (Kshema, the Queen), having heard of these merits, praised, ‘Excellent! I rejoice greatly in the words of the World Honored One.’ Then she spoke the following verse to the Tathagata (Tathagata, 'Thus Gone One', an epithet of the Buddha): ‘Like the best among the victors, I follow and learn in this way, like learning well from the root, possessing a boundless ocean of merit. Now I learn what the Buddha learned, reaching the other shore of all merits, I should be free from the suffering of birth and death, and attain the state of a Muni (Muni, Sage). In my past lives, I have practiced giving, may all those merits enable me to attain the Buddha's unparalleled wisdom. In past and present lives, I have upheld the precepts, may all those merits enable me to attain the Tathagata's wisdom. I cultivate patience, diligence, Samadhi (Samadhi, concentration) and Prajna (Prajna, wisdom), may all of these accomplish the Buddha-dharma. The karma created by my body, speech, and mind, all the good deeds I have cultivated, may I attain great Bodhi (Bodhi, enlightenment), seeking the wisdom and merits of the Buddha. I relinquish my female body, and attain a superior male body, and after attaining a male body, I will gradually attain the Buddha's body. After attaining supreme Bodhi, I will turn the unsurpassed Dharma wheel, and release sentient beings bound in the prison of birth and death, granting them liberation.’ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
