佛语童子：“菩萨尊法施持法与他人者有十事。何等为十？一者弃捐恶，二者奉行善，三者修正士，四者净其佛刹，五者坐佛树下，六者布施众用，七者降伏诸尘劳，八者与一切人智，九者行慈心，十者现在得安隐意。童子！是为菩萨持尊法施十事以法施与他人者。”佛于是说偈言： “诸不善皆捐之， 诸善事悉奉行； 得在住法智慧， 意常好喜布施。 便净其佛国土， 即得无上之国； 便则坐佛树下， 兴法施譬如宝。 布施一切所有， 便学于诸法王； 则远除诸尘劳， 其人得佛不难。 布施于一切人， 常有慈心之行； 其无有嫉妒行， 为安隐诸非人。 多智便弃诸不善， 其人常为在善住； 于尊法坚不可动， 其多智者常与法。 即常得清净之国， 常奉行佛道之事； 为常得在佛树下， 兴法施者有是事。 无有尘劳布施众， 便即知了己身事； 皆解脱诸世之事， 其人终无所挂碍。 其人自知而发意， 为一切人如是施； 有慈心者无嫉妒， 见诸法安无有我。” 佛语童子：“ 现代汉语译本 ‘恶道’之事，那些拥有大智慧的人常常安住在正道上。 他们常常安住在甘露之门，得以坐在无量佛的菩提树下； 为无量亿人展现光明，这样的人终究不会畏惧恶道。 佛告诉童子：‘菩萨尊重佛法，将佛法布施给他人，会有十种利益。是哪十种呢？一是舍弃恶行，二是奉行善事，三是修正自身，四是净化自己的佛国，五是坐在菩提树下，六是布施各种所需之物，七是降伏各种烦恼，八是给予一切人智慧，九是行慈悲之心，十是现在就能得到安稳的心境。童子！这就是菩萨秉持尊重佛法的精神，以佛法布施给他人所能获得的十种利益。’佛于是说了偈语： ‘各种不善都要舍弃，各种善事都要奉行； 得以安住在佛法智慧之中，内心常常欢喜布施。 便能净化自己的佛国，即能得到无上的国土； 便能坐在菩提树下，弘扬佛法就像珍宝一样。 布施一切所有的东西，便能学习诸佛之王； 就能远离各种烦恼，这样的人成佛不难。 布施给一切人，常常有慈悲之心的行为； 没有嫉妒的行为，为安稳各种非人。 多智之人便舍弃各种不善，这样的人常常安住在善法之中； 对于尊重佛法坚定不移，那些有智慧的人常常传授佛法。 就能常常得到清净的国土，常常奉行佛道的各种事情； 因为常常得以在菩提树下，弘扬佛法的人有这样的利益。 没有烦恼，布施各种所需，便能立即了解自身的事情； 都能解脱各种世间的事情，这样的人终究没有什么挂碍。 这样的人自己明白而发愿，为一切人这样布施； 有慈悲之心的人没有嫉妒，见到诸法安稳而没有我执。’ 佛告诉童子：

English version The affairs of the 'evil paths' (apāya-gati), those with great wisdom constantly abide in the path. They constantly dwell in the gate of nectar (amrita-dvāra), and are able to sit under the immeasurable Buddha tree (ananta-buddha-vriksha); Revealing light to immeasurable billions of people, such a person will ultimately not fear the evil paths.' The Buddha said to the youth: 'A Bodhisattva (bodhisattva) who respects the Dharma (dharma), and bestows the Dharma to others, has ten benefits. What are the ten? First, abandoning evil; second, practicing good; third, correcting oneself; fourth, purifying one's Buddha-land (buddha-kshetra); fifth, sitting under the Buddha tree; sixth, giving alms of various necessities; seventh, subduing all defilements (kleshas); eighth, giving wisdom to all people; ninth, practicing loving-kindness (maitrī); tenth, presently obtaining a peaceful mind. Youth! These are the ten benefits that a Bodhisattva obtains by upholding the respected Dharma and bestowing the Dharma to others.' Thereupon, the Buddha spoke in verse, saying: 'All evils are to be abandoned, all good deeds are to be practiced; Able to abide in the wisdom of the Dharma, the mind is constantly joyful in giving. Then one purifies one's Buddha-land, and immediately obtains the unsurpassed land; Then one sits under the Buddha tree, propagating the Dharma like a treasure. Giving alms of all possessions, then one learns from the kings of all Dharmas (dharma-rāja); Then one far removes all defilements, for such a person, attaining Buddhahood is not difficult. Giving alms to all people, constantly having the practice of loving-kindness; Without the practice of jealousy, bringing peace to all non-humans. The wise abandon all evils, such a person constantly abides in goodness; For the respected Dharma, steadfast and immovable, those with wisdom constantly give the Dharma. Then one constantly obtains a pure land, constantly practicing the affairs of the Buddha's path; Because one constantly is able to be under the Buddha tree, those who propagate the Dharma have these benefits. Without defilements, giving alms to the multitude, then one immediately understands the affairs of oneself; All are liberated from the affairs of the world, such a person ultimately has no attachments. Such a person understands and makes vows, giving alms in this way for all people; Those with loving-kindness have no jealousy, seeing all Dharmas peaceful and without self.' The Buddha said to the youth: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

菩萨行空有十事。何等为十？一者行佛道，二者无所著行，三者不愿所生，四者不犯戒法，五者不诽谤贤者，六者不为诤行，七者无所得，八者独行道，九者不诤佛，十者受法行。童子！是为菩萨行十空事。”佛于是说偈言： “其诸上人所行， 得上尊之世界； 勇猛者于彼行， 诸所不可得命。 皆不着诸世界， 于禅思安隐坐； 亦不愿诸所生， 便晓知诸空法。 终不复犯戒法， 持于戒无有呵； 其尽寿不说恶， 不诽谤余贤者。 其行道无所诤， 终无有诸诤讼； 其便知诸所事， 彼如法而习行。 乃至亡失其命， 终不谤于世尊； 积累于一切法， 自保意无所畏。 于一切诸世界， 佛道不可思议； 即奉持诸佛法， 不复疑于空法。 其人之行而上妙， 住不在于诸外道； 行禅安隐无所著， 诸所无命亦无人。 其人终无有贪着， 行一心者无所想； 以知无人无我法， 终复无有于所愿。 悉晓诸空之法事， 于众所用终不着； 其人终无贪着念， 于佛常有净信意。 其人终无诤讼事， 独处行者空众用； 其人为住于佛道， 便持如来诸所法。” 佛语童子：“菩萨在独处行有十事。何等为 现代汉语译本 菩萨的空性之行有十件事。是哪十件呢？一是行佛道（Buddha-dharma，觉悟之路），二是行无所执著（non-attachment）之行，三是不愿求所生之处，四是不违犯戒律，五是不诽谤贤者，六是不作争端之行，七是无所得，八是独自修行，九是不与佛争辩，十是接受佛法并依之修行。童子！这就是菩萨所行的十种空性之事。’佛于是说了偈语： ‘那些修行高尚的人，能够到达至尊的世界； 勇猛精进的人在那里修行，能够超越对生命的执着。 他们不执着于任何世界，在禅定中安稳地坐着； 也不愿求任何转生之处，从而明了诸法的空性。 他们终究不会违犯戒律，持守戒律而没有过失； 他们一生都不说恶语，不诽谤其他贤者。 他们的修行之道没有争端，终究不会有任何争讼； 他们明了诸事，并如法地修行。 乃至失去生命，也终究不会诽谤世尊（Bhagavan，佛的尊称）； 积累一切佛法，保护自己的心意而无所畏惧。 在一切世界中，佛道是不可思议的； 他们奉持诸佛的教法，不再怀疑空性之法。 他们的行为至上至妙，不滞留在外道之中； 他们行禅定而安稳无所执着，超越了对生命和自我的执着。 他们终究没有贪着，一心修行而没有妄想； 因为他们了知无人无我的法，终究不会有任何愿求。 完全明了诸法的空性，对于大众所用之物终不执着； 他们终究没有贪着的念头，对于佛陀常有清净的信心。 他们终究没有争讼之事，独自修行而远离大众的喧嚣； 他们安住于佛道，奉持如来（Tathagata，佛的称号）的一切教法。’ 佛告诉童子：‘菩萨在独处修行中有十件事。是哪十件呢？’

English version The Bodhisattva's (Enlightenment Being) practice of emptiness has ten aspects. What are these ten? First, practicing the Buddha-dharma (path of awakening); second, practicing without attachment; third, not desiring rebirth in any particular place; fourth, not violating the precepts; fifth, not slandering the virtuous; sixth, not engaging in disputes; seventh, having no sense of attainment; eighth, practicing alone; ninth, not arguing with the Buddha; tenth, receiving the Dharma and practicing accordingly. O son! These are the ten aspects of emptiness practiced by a Bodhisattva.' The Buddha then spoke in verse: 'Those who practice nobly, Attain the world of the Supreme One; The courageous ones practice there, Transcending the attachment to life. They are not attached to any world, Sitting peacefully in meditation; Nor do they desire any rebirth, Thus understanding the emptiness of all dharmas (teachings). They will never violate the precepts, Holding to the precepts without fault; Throughout their lives, they speak no evil, And do not slander other virtuous ones. Their path of practice has no disputes, Ultimately, there are no contentions; They understand all matters, And practice according to the Dharma. Even if they lose their lives, They will never slander the Bhagavan (Blessed One, a title of the Buddha); Accumulating all the Dharmas, Protecting their minds without fear. In all the worlds, The Buddha-dharma is inconceivable; They uphold the teachings of all Buddhas, No longer doubting the emptiness of dharmas. Their practice is supreme and wonderful, Not dwelling in external paths; They practice meditation peacefully without attachment, Transcending the attachment to life and self. They ultimately have no greed or attachment, Practicing with one mind without thoughts; Because they know the Dharma of no self and no person, They ultimately have no desires. Completely understanding the emptiness of all dharmas, They are not attached to what is used by the masses; They ultimately have no thoughts of greed or attachment, And always have pure faith in the Buddha. They ultimately have no disputes or contentions, Practicing alone, away from the noise of the masses; They abide in the Buddha-dharma, And uphold all the teachings of the Tathagata (the 'Thus-Gone One', a title of the Buddha).' The Buddha said to the youth: 'The Bodhisattva has ten things in solitary practice. What are the ten?' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version ‘Ten? First, having a pure mind; second, being without desire; third, being mindful of all Buddhas; fourth, having faith in practice; fifth, having wisdom without doubt; sixth, having repeated contemplation of all Buddhas; seventh, not slandering the Dharma; eighth, practicing in solitude; ninth, attaining a state of tranquility; tenth, having the wisdom to understand the four aspects of liberation. Boy! These are the ten things a Bodhisattva does when practicing in solitude.’ The Buddha then spoke in verse, saying: ‘Ultimately, there is no practice of love and desire, always having a pure mind; then dedicating oneself to things without desire, practicing wholeheartedly in solitude. Thinking of the light of the universal world, that person turns into faith; having no doubt in wisdom, the Buddha's wisdom is inconceivable. Having repeated contemplation of all Buddhas, the Buddha will never abandon the Dharma; then engaging in solitary practice, one dwells in the solitary Dharma. That person can then understand things, feeling joy alone among the trees; then abandoning wealth and profit, practicing the Way in one place. That person has a pure mind, always abandoning all evil deeds; the solitary practice of that person is unsurpassed, ultimately no longer doubting the wisdom of all Buddhas. That person thinks of the unsurpassed Buddha, believing in the practice of the God of Gods; also no longer doubting the wisdom of all Buddhas, the one who practices in solitude has these things. Having repeated contemplation of all superior beings, ultimately not abandoning the practice of all Dharmas; the one who practices in solitude is solitary, the one who practices in a quiet place has these things. Then attaining the truly solitary place, quickly understanding all matters of realization; constantly explaining countless sutras, that person has no time of hindrance.’ The Buddha said to the boy: ‘A Bodhisattva has ten things when practicing in a quiet place. What are the ten? First, solitary practice; second, being away from the crowd; third, being without disputes; fourth, being without anger; fifth, not entering into various actions; sixth, not entering into the faults of others; seventh, being mindful of matters of liberation; eighth, practicing wholeheartedly in peace and tranquility; ninth, quickly realizing liberation; tenth, attaining Samadhi (a state of highly concentrated mental absorption) because of non-attachment. Boy! These are the things a Bodhisattva does when practicing in a quiet place...’ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 尊行十事。”佛于是说偈言： “常有寂寞之事， 便远离众会人； 终无有诤讼时， 而独自作于行。 常无有瞋恚意， 终不转着诸界； 亦不复作诤讼， 在闲处是有德。 便为寂寞之行， 常在于独处行； 即有解脱之事， 便疾得过度去。 独自在上闲处坐， 常弃捐恶众会人； 其人终不入人罪， 树间坐者有是事。 便厌于一切生死， 其人无有贪众用； 亦不有众畏之事， 在树下坐有是事。 终不与人共诤讼， 常独行者乐寂寞； 常护守于身口意， 其在闲处德无数。 便得上妙解脱事， 即好坐在寂三昧； 其于树间习寂行， 在闲处者有是德。”
