English version: The Buddha said: 'You should ask the wise, and teach each other in turn. Asking the wise is like having a lamp in the darkness. Do not secretly plot evil, do not quarrel. Seeing gold and silver should be like seeing dirt, do not falsely testify to incriminate people. Do not slander others' intentions with your words. Do not say you have heard what you have not heard, do not say you have seen what you have not seen. When walking, you should look down, do not step on and kill the insects on the ground. Do not lust after other people's wives, do not judge women by their appearance. When sitting, reflect on yourself, remove the heart of greed and love, and then you can attain the Dao (the Way).' The Buddha told the Bhikkhus (monks): 'Those who want to seek the truth should straighten your hearts, sit in a quiet place, breathe in and out, and know the length of your breath. If you breathe long without return, your body will also be exhausted; if you hold your breath without breathing, your body will also be exhausted. Distinguish and think, who created the body? The mind should look inward and also look outward. If you think to yourself and feel happy, and have different ideas from others, then do not covet the treasures of the world at this time. If the mind slightly wants to follow the right path, and the intention slightly wavers again, then immediately turn back and guard your intention, and the intention will return. For example, if a person has a mirror, if the mirror is not clean, he cannot see his appearance. If he wipes away the dirt on the mirror, he can see his appearance. A person removing greed, lust, anger (Chenhui), and ignorance is like wiping a mirror. Straighten your thoughts, there is nothing solid in the world, everything is impermanent.' The Buddha told the Bhikkhus (monks): 'Holding the mind should be like a square stone, the stone is in the middle of the courtyard, the rain cannot damage it, the sun cannot melt it, and the wind cannot shake it. Holding the mind should be like a stone.' The Buddha said: 'The hearts of people in the world are like grass and trees in flowing water, each flowing on its own, not looking at each other. The former does not look at the latter, and the latter does not look at the former. The grass and trees flow, each as before. The hearts of people are also like this, one thought comes, one thought goes, also like grass and trees not looking at each other before and after. There is nothing to be happy about in heaven and earth, living in the world, abandoning the body and not dying again. Only after the Dao (the Way) is achieved will one know the teacher's kindness. When you see the teacher, you serve him, and when you don't see him, you think about his teachings, like a filial son remembering his parents. Only when the mind is stable can there be one heart, and then there can be compassion for the world.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

人民、蜎飞蠕动之类。坐独自叹已脱身于天下及五道：一者天道、二者人道、三者畜生道、四者饿鬼道、五者地狱道。已得罗汉道者，便能飞行变化。身中能出水火、能出无间入无孔，欲离世间，取无为去者，即能。” 佛告诸比丘：“道不可不学，经不可不读。”佛说经已，五百沙门皆得阿罗汉道。 阿难白佛言：“是诸沙门，闻经意解，何其疾也？” 佛言：“此诸比丘，前迦叶佛时受诵斯经；中间无佛，随世因缘废不复闻，至吾为说，闻即得道。” 佛说经竟，诸菩萨、四辈弟子、帝王人民、天龙鬼神，无不欢喜，为佛作礼。 佛说忠心经 现代汉语译本： 人民以及微小的昆虫等。独自叹息已经脱离了天下以及五道轮回：一是天道（deva-gati，天人的境界），二是人道（manushya-gati，人类的境界），三是畜生道（tiryak-gati，动物的境界），四是饿鬼道（preta-gati，饿鬼的境界），五是地狱道（naraka-gati，地狱的境界）。已经证得阿罗汉道（arhat-marga，断尽烦恼的境界）的人，便能飞行变化，身中能出水火，能出入没有间隙和孔洞的地方，想要离开世间，证取无为涅槃的人，就能做到。 佛告诉各位比丘（bhiksu，出家修行的僧人）说：‘道不可不学习，经典不可不读诵。’佛说完这部经后，五百位沙门（sramana，出家修行者）都证得了阿罗汉道。 阿难（Ananda，佛陀的十大弟子之一）问佛说：‘这些沙门听闻经典，理解经义，为何如此迅速？’ 佛说：‘这些比丘在前一尊迦叶佛（Kasyapa Buddha，过去七佛之一）时代就已受持读诵这部经典；中间没有佛出世，随着世间的因缘而废弃，不再听闻，直到我为他们宣说，听闻后立即得道。’ 佛说完这部经后，诸位菩萨（bodhisattva，发菩提心，誓愿救度一切众生的修行者）、四众弟子（比丘、比丘尼、优婆塞、优婆夷）、帝王人民、天龙鬼神，没有不欢喜的，都为佛作礼。 佛说忠心经

English version: People, and tiny insects and creatures. He sighed to himself, having escaped from the world and the five realms of existence: first, the deva-gati (realm of gods), second, the manushya-gati (realm of humans), third, the tiryak-gati (realm of animals), fourth, the preta-gati (realm of hungry ghosts), and fifth, the naraka-gati (realm of hell). Those who have attained the arhat-marga (path of the Arhat, the state of complete liberation) are able to fly and transform, to emit water and fire from their bodies, to enter without gaps or holes, and to leave the world to attain nirvana (state of non-doing), they are able to do so. The Buddha told the bhiksus (monks): 'The path must be learned, and the sutras must be read.' After the Buddha finished speaking this sutra, five hundred sramanas (ascetics) all attained the arhat-marga. Ananda (one of the ten principal disciples of the Buddha) asked the Buddha: 'These sramanas, hearing the sutra and understanding its meaning, why is it so quick?' The Buddha said: 'These bhiksus, in the time of the previous Kasyapa Buddha (one of the seven Buddhas of the past), received and recited this sutra; in the intervening period without a Buddha, they abandoned it according to worldly conditions and no longer heard it, until I spoke it for them, and upon hearing it, they immediately attained the path.' After the Buddha finished speaking this sutra, all the bodhisattvas (enlightenment beings), the fourfold assembly of disciples (bhiksus, bhiksunis, upasakas, and upasikas), emperors, people, nagas, and spirits, were all delighted and paid homage to the Buddha.
