English version The Buddha Speaks of the Sutra on the Retribution of Sins and Blessings in the Five Paths of Reincarnation The Buddha Speaks of the Sutra on the Retribution of Sins and Blessings in the Five Paths of Reincarnation Translated by Tripiṭaka Master Guṇabhadra (求那跋陀罗) of the Liu Song Dynasty Thus have I heard: At one time, the Buddha was in the Shishi (释氏) Vihara (精舍) in Kapilavastu (迦维罗卫国), together with 1,250 Bhikshus. At the end of the ninth month's fast, the Buddha emerged from the meditation chamber and went to the Jetavana Anathapindika-arama (祇樹給孤獨園) in Sravasti (舍衛國). Between the two countries was a large tree named Nigrodha (尼拘類樹), 120 li (里) high, with branches and leaves covering 60 li in circumference. The tree had tens of millions of hu (斛) of fruits, which were fragrant and sweet like honey. When the ripe fruits fell, people ate them, and all kinds of diseases were cured, and their eyes became clear. The Buddha sat under the tree, and the Bhikshus picked the fruits and ate them. The Buddha said to Ananda (阿難): 'I observe that all things in heaven and earth have their own past causes.' Ananda immediately stepped forward, bowed to the Buddha, knelt down, and said to the Buddha: 'What are these past causes? These disciples wish to hear about them. Please explain them in detail and enlighten those who have not yet heard!' The Buddha said to Ananda: 'Excellent! Excellent! If you are happy to hear, listen carefully with a good mind.' The Buddha said to Ananda: 'A person making blessings is like this tree. Originally, one plants a single seed, which gradually grows larger and yields countless fruits. People who are noble and wealthy, kings or elders, come from paying homage to the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha (三宝). People who are very rich and have unlimited wealth come from giving alms. People who are long-lived, without illness, and with strong bodies come from upholding the precepts. People who are handsome, with beautiful complexions, radiant and foremost, with soft bodies and fragrant breath, whose appearance pleases everyone who sees them and never tires of looking at them, come from practicing patience. People who cultivate diligently without懈怠, and are happy to make blessings and merits, come from diligence. People who are peaceful, with careful words and deeds, come from Dhyana (禪定). People who are intelligent and understand the profound Dharma, praise the wonderful meanings, and enlighten the ignorant, whose words are trusted by all who hear them, come from wisdom.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

不咨受，宣用为珍宝，从智慧中来；为人音声清彻，从歌咏三宝中来；为人洁净，无有疾病，从慈心中来。” 阿难白佛：“云何为慈？” 佛语阿难：“一、慈众生，如母爱子；二、悲世间，欲令解脱道意；三、心常欢喜；四、为能护念，一切不犯。是为慈心者也。” 佛语阿难：“为人长大，恭敬人故；为人短小，轻慢人故；为人丑陋，喜瞋恚人故；生无所知，不学问故；为人专愚，不教人故；为人喑哑，谤毁人故；为人聋盲，不喜听受经法故；为人奴婢，负债不偿故；为人卑贱，不礼三宝故；为人丑黑，遮佛光明故；生裸国中者，喜轻衣搪揬塔寺、精舍故；生马蹄国中者，喜着屐佛前行故；生穿胸人国中者，布施作福悔惜心故；生獐鹿麑麂中者，喜惊怖人故；生堕龙中者，喜调戏人故；身生恶疮治之难差者，喜鞭打众生不以理故；人见欢喜者，前生见人欢喜故；人见不欢喜者，前生见人不欢悦故；遭县官系闭牢狱、杻械其身者，前世为人笼系众生，不从意故；为人唇缺者，前世钓鱼，鱼决口故；闻好言善语心不乐闻，于中两舌乱人听受经法者，后堕耽耳狗中。” 佛语阿难：“世有愚人，闻说法语心不餐采，后堕长耳驴马之中。悭贪独食，不共饥者，食后堕饿鬼中；出生为人，贫穷饥 现代汉语译本：不询问就接受，是因为把不该用的东西当作珍宝，这是从缺乏智慧而来的；人的声音清晰洪亮，是因为歌颂三宝而来的；人的身体洁净，没有疾病，是因为有慈悲心而来的。 阿难问佛：‘什么是慈悲？’ 佛告诉阿难：‘一、慈爱众生，如同母亲爱护自己的孩子；二、怜悯世间，希望他们能够理解和解脱的道路；三、内心常常充满欢喜；四、能够守护正念，不做任何违背戒律的事情。这就是慈悲心。’ 佛告诉阿难：‘人长得高大，是因为恭敬他人的缘故；人长得矮小，是因为轻慢他人的缘故；人长得丑陋，是因为喜欢嗔怒的缘故；生下来什么都不知道，是因为不学习的缘故；人特别愚笨，是因为不教导他人的缘故；人是哑巴，是因为诽谤他人的缘故；人是聋子或瞎子，是因为不喜欢听闻佛经的缘故；人做奴婢，是因为欠债不还的缘故；人地位卑贱，是因为不礼敬三宝的缘故；人长得丑陋黝黑，是因为遮挡佛光的缘故；出生在裸体国中的人，是因为喜欢穿着轻薄的衣服冲撞佛塔寺庙的缘故；出生在马蹄国中的人，是因为喜欢穿着鞋子在佛前行走的缘故；出生在穿胸人国中的人，是因为布施作福后又后悔吝惜的缘故；转生为獐、鹿、麑、麂等动物，是因为喜欢惊吓他人的缘故；堕落为龙，是因为喜欢戏弄他人的缘故；身上生恶疮难以治愈，是因为喜欢不讲道理地鞭打众生的缘故；人们见到就欢喜的人，是因为前世见到他人欢喜的缘故；人们见到就不欢喜的人，是因为前世见到他人不欢悦的缘故；遭受官府拘禁、囚禁在牢狱中、身体被枷锁束缚的人，是因为前世像笼子一样囚禁众生，不顺从他们的意愿的缘故；人嘴唇有缺陷，是因为前世钓鱼，鱼的嘴巴被弄破的缘故；听到好的言语善意的劝告心里不乐意听，还在其中挑拨离间，扰乱他人听闻佛经的人，死后会堕落为长着大耳朵的狗。’ 佛告诉阿难：‘世上有愚蠢的人，听闻佛法教诲心里不接受，死后会堕落为长着长耳朵的驴马之中。悭吝贪婪独自享用食物，不与饥饿的人分享，死后会堕落到饿鬼道中；即使转生为人，也会贫穷饥饿。’

English version: 'Not inquiring and accepting is because one treats what should not be used as treasures, which comes from a lack of wisdom; a person's voice is clear and resonant because of singing praises to the Three Jewels (Buddha, Dharma, Sangha); a person's body is clean and free from illness because of having a compassionate heart.' Ananda (Buddha's attendant) asked the Buddha: 'What is compassion?' The Buddha told Ananda: 'First, to love all beings as a mother loves her child; second, to have compassion for the world, wishing them to understand and be liberated from the path of suffering; third, to always be joyful in one's heart; fourth, to be able to guard one's thoughts and actions, not violating any precepts. This is what it means to have a compassionate heart.' The Buddha told Ananda: 'People are tall because they are respectful to others; people are short because they are disrespectful to others; people are ugly because they are fond of anger; people are born without knowledge because they do not study; people are particularly foolish because they do not teach others; people are mute because they slander others; people are deaf or blind because they do not like to listen to the Buddhist scriptures; people are slaves because they do not repay their debts; people are of low status because they do not pay homage to the Three Jewels; people are ugly and dark because they block the Buddha's light; people are born in the land of naked people because they like to wear light clothing and bump into pagodas, temples, and monasteries; people are born in the land of horse hooves because they like to walk in front of the Buddha wearing shoes; people are born in the land of pierced chests because they regret and are stingy after giving alms and making merit; people are reborn as deer, roe deer, fawns, etc., because they like to frighten others; people fall into the realm of dragons because they like to tease others; people develop incurable sores on their bodies because they like to whip sentient beings unreasonably; people are liked by others because they were happy to see others in their previous lives; people are disliked by others because they were not happy to see others in their previous lives; people who are detained by officials, imprisoned in jail, and have their bodies shackled are because they imprisoned sentient beings like cages in their previous lives, not following their wishes; people with cleft lips are because they fished in their previous lives, and the fish's mouth was broken; people who are unwilling to listen to good words and kind advice, and who sow discord and disrupt others from listening to the Buddhist scriptures, will fall into the realm of long-eared dogs after death.' The Buddha told Ananda: 'There are foolish people in the world who do not accept the teachings of the Buddha in their hearts, and after death, they will fall into the realm of long-eared donkeys and horses. Those who are stingy and greedy, enjoying food alone and not sharing with the hungry, will fall into the realm of hungry ghosts after death; even if they are reborn as humans, they will be poor and hungry.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
