是即戏论，有行、有相，不应如是住。如是住者，非住、非不住；圣道亦如是。” 王言：“所有善男子、善女人修菩提行者得圣道乎？” 菩萨言：“修菩提者，无有少法可得。菩提道者，非苦、非乐，非我、非无我，非常、非无常，非净、非秽，无轮回可厌、亦非涅盘可证。是故，一切法皆不可得，圣道之法亦不可得。” 王复白妙吉祥菩萨言：“善哉，大士！甚为希有，善说法要，我悉信解。然我诚心敬办供养，当以饮食供诸大众，菩萨今时赴我所请。” 妙吉祥言：“食无所作，施无所受。施者、受者，无二、无别。王已诚心，当受王供。” 尔时，世尊告妙吉祥菩萨言：“今正是时，受王所请，当为多人作大利益。” 妙吉祥菩萨前白佛言：“我今承佛圣旨，已受王请，当与大众同受供养。” 尔时，摩伽陀国王知妙吉祥菩萨受其请已，心生欢喜，得大安隐，礼敬世尊及妙吉祥菩萨并诸大众。然后诣尊者舍利子所，问尊者言：“妙吉祥菩萨将受我供，同来菩萨其数几何？” 舍利子言：“当与五百大菩萨众同赴王会。” 是时摩伽陀国王先还宫中严饰广殿，令诸给使者皆精洁其心，备办种种上味饮食，罗列幢幡、珍妙宝盖，散诸妙华，焚种种香， 现代汉语译本： ‘这就是戏论，是有作为、有表相的，不应该这样执着。像这样执着，既不是执着，也不是不执着；圣道也是如此。’ 国王问道：‘所有修菩提行的善男子、善女人都能证得圣道吗？’ 妙吉祥菩萨答道：‘修菩提行的人，没有丝毫法可以得到。菩提道，既非苦，也非乐；既非我，也非无我；既非恒常，也非无常；既非清净，也非污秽；没有轮回可以厌恶，也没有涅槃可以证得。因此，一切法都是不可得的，圣道之法也是不可得的。’ 国王再次对妙吉祥菩萨说：‘太好了，大士！真是稀有难得，善于宣说佛法要义，我都信受理解了。现在我诚心准备了供养，将用饮食供养各位大众，菩萨现在就接受我的邀请吧。’ 妙吉祥菩萨说：‘食物本身没有造作，布施也没有接受者。布施的人和接受布施的人，没有差别。国王已经有了诚心，应当接受国王的供养。’ 这时，世尊告诉妙吉祥菩萨说：‘现在正是时候，接受国王的邀请，应当为很多人带来大利益。’ 妙吉祥菩萨上前对佛说：‘我现在遵从佛的旨意，已经接受了国王的邀请，将与大众一同接受供养。’ 这时，摩伽陀（Magadha）国王知道妙吉祥菩萨接受了他的邀请，心中欢喜，得到大安稳，礼敬世尊和妙吉祥菩萨以及各位大众。然后前往尊者舍利子（Sariputra）处，问尊者说：‘妙吉祥菩萨将要接受我的供养，一同前来的菩萨有多少位？’ 舍利子回答说：‘将与五百位大菩萨一同赴国王的盛会。’ 这时，摩伽陀国王先回到宫中，装饰宽敞的大殿，让所有侍奉的人都保持内心的纯洁，准备各种上等的美味饮食，排列着幢幡、珍贵的宝盖，散布各种美妙的鲜花，焚烧各种香。

English version: ‘That is conceptual proliferation, having action and appearance; one should not abide in that way. Abiding in that way is neither abiding nor not abiding; the holy path is also like that.’ The king said: ‘Do all good men and good women who cultivate the Bodhi path attain the holy path?’ The Bodhisattva said: ‘For those who cultivate Bodhi, there is not a single dharma (law, principle) to be attained. The Bodhi path is neither suffering nor pleasure, neither self nor non-self, neither permanent nor impermanent, neither pure nor impure; there is no samsara (cycle of rebirth) to be厌恶ed, nor is there nirvana (liberation) to be realized. Therefore, all dharmas are unattainable, and the dharma of the holy path is also unattainable.’ The king again said to Manjushri (妙吉祥) Bodhisattva: ‘Excellent, great being! It is extremely rare, skillfully expounding the essential teachings of the Dharma; I completely believe and understand. Now, I sincerely prepare offerings and will offer food to all of you. Bodhisattva, please accept my invitation now.’ Manjushri (妙吉祥) said: ‘Food has no action, and giving has no receiver. The giver and the receiver are not two, not different. The king already has sincerity; he should receive the king's offering.’ At that time, the World Honored One (世尊) told Manjushri (妙吉祥) Bodhisattva: ‘Now is the right time to accept the king's invitation; it will bring great benefit to many people.’ Manjushri (妙吉祥) Bodhisattva stepped forward and said to the Buddha: ‘I now accept the king's invitation in accordance with the Buddha's decree and will receive the offering together with the assembly.’ At that time, King Magadha (摩伽陀) knew that Manjushri (妙吉祥) Bodhisattva had accepted his invitation, and his heart was filled with joy and great peace. He paid homage to the World Honored One (世尊) and Manjushri (妙吉祥) Bodhisattva, as well as the entire assembly. Then, he went to Venerable Sariputra (舍利子) and asked: ‘Manjushri (妙吉祥) Bodhisattva will be receiving my offering; how many Bodhisattvas will be coming with him?’ Sariputra (舍利子) replied: ‘He will be attending the king's gathering with five hundred great Bodhisattvas.’ At that time, King Magadha (摩伽陀) first returned to the palace, decorated the spacious hall, instructed all the servants to purify their minds, prepared various excellent and delicious foods, arranged banners and precious canopies, scattered various beautiful flowers, and burned various incenses. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

真珠、璎珞尽其华丽敷设五百座位。复于王城令严治道路，散华烧香，无诸尘秽，清肃其道。是时城中人民闻妙吉祥菩萨赴王宫中受王供养，皆生欢喜，一心渴仰，各以香华伺其道侧。 尔时，妙吉祥菩萨于初夜分作是思惟：“我于来晨赴于王请，同我往者菩萨众少，今当往诸佛刹请诸大菩萨众共赴王宫庄严胜会。我若为王说法，彼诸菩萨能作证明。”作是念已，即于本处隐身不现，经须臾间东方过八万佛刹，到一世界名曰常声，佛号吉祥声如来、应供、正等正觉，现在说法，为诸菩萨说大乘法，彼诸菩萨皆是不退转地。其佛刹中有七宝树，出种种华果，其树枝叶常出微妙音声——所谓：赞佛声、赞法声、赞不退转地菩萨之声，常出如是三宝之声，是名常声世界。 妙吉祥菩萨既到彼已，诣吉祥声如来前，头面礼足而白佛言：“我自娑婆世界故来至此，为受摩伽陀国王请于宫中饭食供养。为菩萨众少故，来请诸大菩萨上士，来晨与我同赴王宫受其供养，令彼一切众生咸受其福。惟愿世尊敕诸菩萨令受我请。” 尔时，吉祥声如来即告八万大菩萨言：“善男子！今妙吉祥菩萨来请汝等往彼娑婆世界，赴摩伽陀国王宫中饮食供养，汝今当往，同为佛事。”是时诸菩萨如世尊敕即当奉行。 于是， 现代汉语译本： 用珍珠和华丽的璎珞装饰五百个座位。又在王城中下令认真修整道路，散花焚香，清除各种尘土污秽，使道路清净肃穆。当时城中的人民听说妙吉祥菩萨（Manjushri Bodhisattva，文殊菩萨）将要到王宫中接受国王的供养，都心生欢喜，一心渴望仰慕，各自拿着香和花在道路两旁等候。 这时，妙吉祥菩萨在初夜时分这样思惟：‘我明天早晨要应邀去参加国王的宴请，但是和我同去的菩萨人数太少，现在应当前往各个佛刹，邀请各位大菩萨一同前往王宫，庄严这个殊胜的聚会。我如果为国王说法，那些菩萨也能作为证明。’这样想着，他就在原来的地方隐身不见，经过很短的时间，就越过东方八万个佛刹，到达一个名为常声的世界，那里的佛号吉祥声如来（吉祥声 Tathagata），是应供、正等正觉，现在正在说法，为各位菩萨宣说大乘佛法，那些菩萨都是不退转地的菩萨。那个佛刹中有七宝树，长出各种各样的花和果实，树的枝叶经常发出微妙的声音——也就是：赞佛的声音、赞法的声音、赞不退转地菩萨的声音，经常发出这样的三宝之声，因此叫做常声世界。 妙吉祥菩萨到达那里之后，来到吉祥声如来面前，头面顶礼佛足，禀告佛说：‘我从娑婆世界（Saha World）特地来到这里，是因为要接受摩伽陀国（Magadha）国王的邀请，到王宫中接受斋饭供养。因为菩萨人数太少，所以前来邀请各位大菩萨上士，明天早晨和我一同前往王宫接受供养，让那里的一切众生都能得到福报。希望世尊命令各位菩萨接受我的邀请。’ 当时，吉祥声如来就告诉八万大菩萨说：‘善男子！现在妙吉祥菩萨邀请你们前往娑婆世界，到摩伽陀国王宫中接受饮食供养，你们现在应当前往，一同成就佛事。’当时各位菩萨如同世尊的命令，立即准备奉行。 于是，

English version: Five hundred seats were adorned with pearls and the most splendid necklaces. Furthermore, he ordered the roads in the royal city to be carefully prepared, scattering flowers and burning incense, removing all dust and impurities, and making the roads clean and solemn. At that time, the people in the city heard that Manjushri Bodhisattva (妙吉祥菩萨) was going to the royal palace to receive the king's offerings, and they all rejoiced, eagerly longing to see him, each holding incense and flowers, waiting by the side of the road. Then, Manjushri Bodhisattva (妙吉祥菩萨) thought to himself in the early part of the night: 'Tomorrow morning I will go to the king's invitation, but the number of Bodhisattvas who will go with me is small. Now I should go to the Buddha lands and invite the great Bodhisattvas to go to the royal palace together to adorn this auspicious gathering. If I preach the Dharma for the king, those Bodhisattvas can bear witness.' Thinking this, he disappeared from his original place, and in a short time, he passed eight hundred thousand Buddha lands to the east, arriving at a world called Constant Sound (常声), where the Buddha is named Auspicious Sound Tathagata (吉祥声如来), Worthy of Offerings, Perfectly and Completely Awakened, now preaching the Dharma, expounding the Mahayana Dharma for the Bodhisattvas, all of whom are in the stage of non-retrogression. In that Buddha land, there are seven-jeweled trees, producing various kinds of flowers and fruits, and the branches and leaves of the trees constantly emit subtle sounds—namely: the sound praising the Buddha, the sound praising the Dharma, and the sound praising the Bodhisattvas of the non-retrogressive stage, constantly emitting such sounds of the Three Jewels, hence it is called the Constant Sound World (常声世界). Having arrived there, Manjushri Bodhisattva (妙吉祥菩萨) went before Auspicious Sound Tathagata (吉祥声如来), bowed his head and face to the ground at the Buddha's feet, and said to the Buddha: 'I have come here from the Saha World (娑婆世界) specifically to accept the invitation of the King of Magadha (摩伽陀国), to receive a meal offering in the royal palace. Because the number of Bodhisattvas is small, I have come to invite the great Bodhisattvas, the superior beings, to come with me to the royal palace tomorrow morning to receive the offerings, so that all beings there may receive blessings. May the World-Honored One command the Bodhisattvas to accept my invitation.' At that time, Auspicious Sound Tathagata (吉祥声如来) then said to the eighty thousand great Bodhisattvas: 'Good men! Now Manjushri Bodhisattva (妙吉祥菩萨) invites you to go to the Saha World (娑婆世界), to the royal palace of the King of Magadha (摩伽陀国) to receive food offerings, you should go now, and together accomplish the Buddha's work.' At that time, the Bodhisattvas, as commanded by the World-Honored One, immediately prepared to carry it out. Then, --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
