Firstly, purity of bodily karma; secondly, purity of verbal karma; thirdly, purity of mental karma; fourthly, purity of good friends. ‘Śāriputra (舍利弗, one of the Buddha's ten principal disciples, known for his wisdom)! How does one attain purity of bodily karma? If a good man or good woman, in each and every birth, refrains from killing, harbors no intention to harm, and constantly avoids stealing and sexual misconduct, not even engaging in improper conduct with their own spouse, let alone other women! They also do not drink alcohol, indulging in recklessness, nor do they use knives, staves, or other instruments of suffering to oppress sentient beings, and they abstain from unwholesome dharmas and all evil deeds. Śāriputra (舍利弗)! Abstaining from these is called purity of bodily karma.’ ‘Śāriputra (舍利弗)! How does one attain purity of verbal karma? This person, in every lifetime, never lies. If they have not seen or heard something, they ultimately do not speak falsely. If they have seen or heard something, they inquire at the appropriate time and then speak, for the benefit of themselves and others, not making contradictory statements. Even if someone instructs them to lie, to protect truthful speech, they ultimately do not lie, not speaking these words to that person, not telling those matters to this person. If two friends have previously broken their relationship, they do not allow it to grow, and their words are able to reconcile disputes well. If it is painful speech, if it is coarse speech, if it is bitter and evil speech, unpleasant speech, unhappy speech, unloving speech, unheartfelt speech, speech that annoys others, speech that creates resentment, all of these are avoided. Their speech is moistening speech, gentle speech, pleasing speech, not coarse speech, pleasing to the ear speech, beautiful speech, heartfelt speech, speech loved by many, speech enjoyed by many, lovable speech, enjoyable speech, speech that can eliminate resentment, constantly making such various beautiful speeches. Furthermore, they abstain from frivolous speech, not making different thoughts and different words, not making different seals and different expectations, concealing real events, not elaborating extensively, not speaking out of time, constantly speaking ultimately. Śāriputra (舍利弗)! Like this, abstaining from impure verbal karma, accomplishing pure verbal karma. Śāriputra (舍利弗)! This is called purity of verbal karma.’ ‘Śāriputra (舍利弗)! How does one attain purity of mental karma? Regarding the precious treasures and wealth belonging to others, they do not give rise to greed and attachment, do not give rise to anger, abstain from the intention to harm, and also abstain from wrong views, without any evil views. Śāriputra (舍利弗)! Abstaining from these, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 是名意业清净。

“舍利弗！云何得善友清净？若诸善友，远离妄语，亦不饮酒，离诸粗犷，调伏正见，往诣其所，亲近咨受。又诣诸佛菩萨、缘觉、声闻等所，亲近供养，咨受未闻。舍利弗！是名第四善友清净。 “舍利弗！若善男子、善女人于佛支提施灯明已，得如是等四种清净。” 尔时世尊欲重宣此义，而说偈言： “为欲照塔故然灯， 身口意业善调伏， 远离邪见具净戒， 由是获得如意眼。 犹如净日照十方， 速能获得于漏尽， 彼大智慧具威德， 得净天眼离尘漏。 智者能了众生意， 亦得通明及辩才， 求二乘道得不难， 由施佛灯获是报。 若求无上佛菩提， 天眼智慧及财物， 于此三事恒无减， 由灯奉施佛支提。 “舍利弗！若善男子、善女人住于大乘，于佛塔庙施灯明已，彼世世中得于八种可乐胜法。何等为八？一者、获胜肉眼；二者、得于胜念，无能测量；三者、得于胜上达分天眼；四者、为于满足修集道故，得不缺戒；五者、得智满足，证于涅槃；六者、先所作善，得无难处；七者，所作善业，得值诸佛，能为一切众生之眼；八者、若善男子、善女人以彼善根得转轮王，所得轮宝不为他障，其身端正；或为帝释，得 现代汉语译本：这就是所谓的意业清净。 ‘舍利弗（Śāriputra，佛陀十大弟子之一，以智慧著称）！如何才能获得善友清净？如果那些善友，远离虚妄之语，也不饮酒，远离各种粗暴的行为，调伏自己的见解使其符合正见，前往他们的住所，亲近并请教。又前往诸佛、菩萨（Bodhisattva，为救度众生而发愿成佛者）、缘觉（Pratyekabuddha，不依师教，通过自身努力觉悟者）、声闻（Śrāvaka，听闻佛法而证悟者）等处，亲近供养，请教未曾听闻的佛法。舍利弗！这就是所谓的第四种善友清净。’ ‘舍利弗！如果善男子、善女人在佛的支提（Cetiya，佛塔或佛寺）施舍灯明，就能获得以上这四种清净。’ 这时，世尊（Bhagavān，佛陀的尊称）想要再次宣说这个道理，于是说了以下偈语： ‘为了照亮佛塔而点灯，身、口、意三业都能得到很好的调伏，远离邪见，具足清净的戒律，因此能够获得如意的天眼。 就像清净的太阳照耀十方，迅速能够获得漏尽（烦恼断尽），他们具有大智慧和威德，获得清净的天眼，远离尘世的烦恼。 智者能够了解众生的心意，也能获得通达明了和辩才，求得声闻和缘觉的二乘道并不困难，这是由于施舍佛灯所获得的果报。 如果求取无上的佛菩提（Anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi，无上正等正觉，即成佛），天眼、智慧和财富，在这三方面永远不会减少，这是由于用灯供奉佛的支提。’ ‘舍利弗！如果善男子、善女人安住于大乘（Mahāyāna，佛教的主要流派之一，以普度众生为目标），在佛塔寺庙施舍灯明之后，他们世世代代都能获得八种令人喜爱的殊胜功德。是哪八种呢？第一，获得殊胜的肉眼；第二，获得殊胜的忆念能力，无法衡量；第三，获得殊胜的、能够向上通达的天眼；第四，为了圆满修集菩提道，能够得到不缺戒的功德；第五，获得智慧圆满，证得涅槃（Nirvana，解脱生死轮回的境界）；第六，先前所做的善事，不会遇到障碍；第七，所做的善业，能够遇到诸佛，能够成为一切众生的眼睛；第八，如果善男子、善女人凭借这些善根能够成为转轮王（Cakravartin，拥有统治世界的轮宝的理想君主），所得到的轮宝不会被他人所阻碍，他们的身体端正；或者成为帝释（Indra，忉利天之主），得到……’

English version: This is called purity of mental action. 'Śāriputra! How does one obtain purity of good friends? If those good friends are far from false speech, do not drink alcohol, are far from all roughness, subdue their views to be in accordance with right view, go to their places, draw near and consult with them. Also, go to the places of all Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Pratyekabuddhas, Śrāvakas, etc., draw near to make offerings, and consult about what has not been heard. Śāriputra! This is called the fourth purity of good friends.' 'Śāriputra! If good men and good women make offerings of light to the cetiyas of the Buddhas, they will obtain these four kinds of purity.' At that time, the World-Honored One (Bhagavān) wished to proclaim this meaning again, and spoke the following verse: 'For the sake of illuminating the stupa, a lamp is lit, the actions of body, speech, and mind are well subdued, Far from wrong views, possessing pure precepts, thereby obtaining the eye of wish fulfillment. Like the pure sun shining in the ten directions, quickly able to obtain the exhaustion of outflows, Those with great wisdom possess power and virtue, obtaining pure heavenly eyes, free from the defilements of dust. The wise are able to understand the minds of beings, also obtaining unobstructed understanding and eloquence, Seeking the path of the two vehicles is not difficult, this reward is obtained by offering lamps to the Buddhas. If seeking unsurpassed Bodhi, heavenly eyes, wisdom, and wealth, In these three matters, there will never be a decrease, by offering lamps to the cetiyas of the Buddhas.' 'Śāriputra! If good men and good women abide in the Mahāyāna, and offer lamps in the Buddha's stupas and temples, they will obtain eight kinds of desirable and excellent qualities in life after life. What are the eight? First, obtaining excellent physical eyes; second, obtaining excellent mindfulness, immeasurable; third, obtaining excellent, superior, attainable heavenly eyes; fourth, for the sake of fulfilling the cultivation of the path, obtaining precepts without deficiency; fifth, obtaining the fulfillment of wisdom, realizing Nirvana; sixth, the good deeds done previously will not encounter difficulties; seventh, the good deeds done will enable them to meet all the Buddhas, able to be the eyes of all beings; eighth, if good men and good women, by means of these good roots, become Cakravartin kings, the wheel treasures obtained will not be obstructed by others, their bodies will be upright; or become Indra, obtaining...' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
