大正藏第 17 册 No. 0754 佛说未曾有因缘经 No. 754 佛说未曾有因缘经卷上 萧齐沙门释昙景译 如是我闻： 一时佛在舍卫国祇树给孤独园。尔时世尊告目犍连：“汝今往彼迦毗罗城，问讯我父阅头檀王并我姨母波阇波提，及三叔父斛饭王等，因复慰喻罗睺罗母耶输陀罗，令割恩爱放罗睺罗，令作沙弥修习圣道。所以者何？母子恩爱，欢乐须臾，死堕地狱，母之与子各不相知，窈窈冥冥，永相离别，受苦万端，后悔无及；罗睺得道，当还度母，永绝生老病死根本，得至涅槃，如我今也。” 目连受命，即入禅定，譬如力士屈伸臂顷到迦毗罗城净饭王所，而白王言：“世尊殷勤，致问无量，起居轻利、气力安不？”及大夫人波阇波提，并三叔父斛饭王等，问讯起居，亦复如是。 时耶输陀罗闻佛遣使来至王所，未知意趣，即遣青衣，令参消息。青衣还白：“世尊遣使，取罗睺罗，度为沙弥。”耶输陀罗闻是消息，将罗睺罗登上高楼，约敕监官，关闭门合，悉令坚牢。 时大目连，既到宫门，不能得入，又无人通，即以神力飞上高楼，至耶输陀罗坐前而立。耶输陀罗见目连来，忧喜交集，迫不得已，即起恭敬，礼拜问讯：“冒涉远途 现代汉语译本 《佛说未曾有因缘经》卷上 萧齐沙门释昙景译 如是我闻： 一时，佛在舍卫国祇树给孤独园（Jetavana Anathapindika-arama）。当时，世尊告诉目犍连（Maudgalyayana）: ‘你现在前往迦毗罗城（Kapilavastu），问候我的父亲阅头檀王（Suddhodana），以及我的姨母波阇波提（Prajapati），还有三位叔父斛饭王（Dronodana）等，并劝慰罗睺罗（Rahula）的母亲耶输陀罗（Yasodhara），让她割舍恩爱，放罗睺罗出家，让他做沙弥修习圣道。为什么呢？母子恩爱，欢乐只是短暂的，死后堕入地狱，母亲和儿子互不相知，幽暗不明，永远分离，承受万般痛苦，后悔也来不及了；罗睺罗得道之后，应当回来度化母亲，永远断绝生老病死的根本，得至涅槃（Nirvana），就像我今天一样。’ 目连（Maudgalyayana）接受佛的命令，立即进入禅定，就像力士伸缩手臂一样，瞬间到达迦毗罗城（Kapilavastu）净饭王（Suddhodana）的住所，对国王说：‘世尊殷勤问候，致以无量敬意，问候您起居是否轻便安适，身体是否安康？’又向大夫人波阇波提（Prajapati），以及三位叔父斛饭王（Dronodana）等，问候起居，也是如此。 当时，耶输陀罗（Yasodhara）听说佛派使者来到王宫，不知道是什么意图，就派一个侍女去打听消息。侍女回来禀告说：‘世尊派使者来，是为了带走罗睺罗（Rahula），度他出家做沙弥。’耶输陀罗（Yasodhara）听到这个消息，就带着罗睺罗（Rahula）登上高楼，告诫监管人员，把门窗全部关好，务必坚固。 当时，大目连（Maha Maudgalyayana）来到宫门，无法进入，又没有人通报，就用神通飞上高楼，来到耶输陀罗（Yasodhara）面前站立。耶输陀罗（Yasodhara）看见目连（Maudgalyayana）到来，忧愁和喜悦交织在一起，不得已，只好起身恭敬地礼拜问讯：‘您不远万里而来，'

English version The Sutra of Cause and Condition of the Unprecedented Spoken by the Buddha No. 754 The Sutra of Cause and Condition of the Unprecedented Spoken by the Buddha, Volume 1 Translated by the Shramana Shi Tan Jing of the Xiao Qi Dynasty Thus have I heard: At one time, the Buddha was in the Jeta Grove, Anathapindika's Park in the country of Shravasti (Sravasti Jetavana Anathapindika-arama). At that time, the World Honored One told Maudgalyayana (Maudgalyayana): 'You should now go to the city of Kapilavastu (Kapilavastu) to inquire after my father, King Suddhodana (Suddhodana), as well as my aunt Prajapati (Prajapati), and my three uncles, King Dronodana (Dronodana), and so on. Also, console Rahula's (Rahula) mother, Yasodhara (Yasodhara), and persuade her to relinquish her love and affection and allow Rahula to become a Shramanera (novice monk) to cultivate the holy path. Why is this so? The love between mother and son brings joy only for a short time. After death, they fall into hell, where mother and son do not recognize each other. In darkness and obscurity, they are forever separated, enduring endless suffering, and regret comes too late. When Rahula attains enlightenment, he should return to liberate his mother, forever severing the root of birth, old age, sickness, and death, and attain Nirvana (Nirvana), just as I am doing today.' Maudgalyayana (Maudgalyayana) received the Buddha's command and immediately entered into Samadhi (meditative state). As quickly as a strong man bends and stretches his arm, he arrived at King Suddhodana's (Suddhodana) residence in the city of Kapilavastu (Kapilavastu) and said to the king: 'The World Honored One sends his earnest regards and boundless respect, inquiring whether your movements are light and comfortable and whether your strength is well.' He also inquired after the well-being of the Great Lady Prajapati (Prajapati) and the three uncles, King Dronodana (Dronodana), and so on, in the same manner. At that time, Yasodhara (Yasodhara), hearing that the Buddha had sent a messenger to the palace but not knowing his intention, sent a maidservant to inquire about the news. The maidservant returned and reported: 'The World Honored One has sent a messenger to take Rahula (Rahula) to become a Shramanera (novice monk).' Upon hearing this news, Yasodhara (Yasodhara) took Rahula (Rahula) up to a high tower, instructing the guards to close and secure all the doors and windows. At that time, Maha Maudgalyayana (Maha Maudgalyayana), arriving at the palace gate, could not enter, and no one announced his arrival. He then used his supernatural powers to fly up to the high tower and stood before Yasodhara (Yasodhara). Seeing Maudgalyayana (Maudgalyayana) arrive, Yasodhara (Yasodhara) was filled with both sorrow and joy. Compelled by the circumstances, she rose and respectfully bowed, inquiring: 'You have come from afar,' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

，得无劳也？”敕为敷座，请目连坐。问目连曰：“世尊无恙，教化众生，不劳神也？遣上人来，欲何所为？” 目连白曰：“太子罗睺年已九岁，应令出家修学圣道。所以者何？母子恩爱，少时如意，一旦命终，堕三恶道，恩爱离别，窈窈冥冥，母不知子、子不知母；罗睺得道，当还度母，永度生老病死忧患，得至涅槃，如佛今也。” 耶输陀罗答目连曰：“释迦如来为太子时，娶我为妻，奉事太子如事天神曾无一失，共为夫妇未满三年，舍五欲乐，腾越宫城逃至王田。王身往迎，违戾不从，乃遣车匿白马令还，自要道成，誓愿当归。披鹿皮衣，譬如狂人，隐居山泽，勤苦六年，得佛还国，都不见亲，忘忽恩旧，剧于路人，远离父母，寄居他邦，使我母子守孤抱穷，无有生赖，唯死是从。人命至重，不能自刑，怀毒抱恨，强存性命，虽居人类，不如畜生，祸中之祸，岂有是哉？今复遣使，欲求我子为其眷属，何酷如之？太子成道，自言慈悲；慈悲之道，应安乐众生，今反离别人之母子。苦中之甚，莫若恩爱离别之苦，以是推之，何慈之有？”白目连曰：“还向世尊宣我所陈。” 时大目连更以方便种种因缘，随宜谏喻，反覆再三。耶输陀罗，绝无听意，辞退还到净饭王所，具宣上事。 王 现代汉语译本：‘您没有感到疲劳吧？’国王敕令铺设座位，请目连（Maudgalyayana，佛陀十大弟子之一，以神通著称）入座。国王问目连：‘世尊（Bhagavan，对佛陀的尊称）安好吗？教化众生，没有劳神吧？派遣上人前来，有何用意？’ 目连回答说：‘太子罗睺罗（Rahula，释迦牟尼佛的儿子）年已九岁，应该让他出家修学圣道。为什么呢？母子恩爱，年少时如意，一旦命终，堕入三恶道（three evil destinies，地狱、饿鬼、畜生），恩爱离别，幽暗不明，母亲不知儿子，儿子不知母亲；罗睺罗得道，应当回来度化母亲，永远脱离生老病死忧患，得至涅槃（Nirvana，佛教术语，指解脱生死轮回的境界），如同佛陀现在一样。’ 耶输陀罗（Yasodhara，释迦牟尼佛的妻子，罗睺罗的母亲）对目连说：‘释迦如来（Sakyamuni Buddha，释迦牟尼佛的另一种称谓）做太子时，娶我为妻，侍奉太子如同侍奉天神，没有一丝一毫的过失，共同为夫妇未满三年，就舍弃五欲之乐，翻越宫城逃到王田。国王亲自去迎接，他违抗不从，于是派遣车匿（Chandaka，释迦牟尼佛出家时的侍从）和白马返回，自己立誓道成之后，誓愿回来。他披着鹿皮衣，就像个疯子一样，隐居山泽，勤苦六年，成佛后回到国家，都不来看望亲人，忘却恩情旧谊，比路人还不如，远离父母，寄居他乡，使我们母子守着孤单，抱着贫穷，没有活下去的依靠，只有一死而已。人命至关重要，不能自杀，怀着怨恨，强撑着性命，虽然身在人类之中，却不如畜生，祸患中的祸患，怎么会有这样的事呢？现在又派遣使者，想要我的儿子做他的眷属，怎么如此残酷？太子成道，自称慈悲；慈悲之道，应该安乐众生，现在反而离散别人母子。痛苦之中，没有比恩爱离别更痛苦的了，由此推断，哪里有慈悲可言？’她对目连说：‘回去向世尊宣说我所陈述的话。’ 当时大目连（Mahamaudgalyayana，大目犍连，目连的全称）再次用种种方便因缘，随顺时机劝谏开导，反反复复再三劝说。耶输陀罗，完全没有听从的意思，辞别目连回到净饭王（Suddhodana，释迦牟尼佛的父亲）那里，详细地禀告了以上的事情。 国王

English version: 'Are you not weary?' The king ordered a seat to be prepared and invited Maudgalyayana (one of the ten principal disciples of the Buddha, known for his supernatural powers) to sit. The king asked Maudgalyayana: 'Is the Bhagavan (a respectful title for the Buddha) well? Is he not weary in teaching and transforming sentient beings? What is the purpose of sending the venerable one here?' Maudgalyayana replied: 'Prince Rahula (the son of Sakyamuni Buddha) is now nine years old and should be allowed to leave home and study the holy path. Why? Because the love between mother and son, though pleasant in youth, will end when one dies and falls into the three evil destinies (hell, hungry ghosts, and animals). Love will be separated, and in the darkness, the mother will not know the son, nor the son the mother. If Rahula attains the Way, he should return to liberate his mother, forever freeing her from the sorrows of birth, old age, sickness, and death, and attaining Nirvana (a state of liberation from the cycle of birth and death), just as the Buddha is now.' Yasodhara (the wife of Sakyamuni Buddha and the mother of Rahula) said to Maudgalyayana: 'When Sakyamuni Buddha was a prince, he married me. I served him as if he were a god, never making a single mistake. We were husband and wife for less than three years when he abandoned the pleasures of the five desires, leaped over the palace walls, and fled to Wangtian. The king himself went to welcome him back, but he refused to comply. So, he sent Chandaka (the attendant of Sakyamuni Buddha when he left home) and the white horse back, vowing to return after attaining the Way. He wore deerskin clothes, like a madman, and lived in seclusion in the mountains and marshes, diligently practicing for six years. After becoming a Buddha, he returned to the country but did not visit his relatives, forgetting kindness and old friendships, worse than a stranger. He abandoned his parents and lived in another country, leaving my son and me to guard our loneliness and embrace poverty, with no means of survival except death. Human life is precious, and I cannot kill myself. Holding onto resentment, I force myself to live. Although I live among humans, I am worse off than livestock. What greater misfortune could there be? Now he sends a messenger again, wanting my son to be his follower. How cruel is that? The prince attained the Way and claims to be compassionate. The path of compassion should bring peace and happiness to sentient beings, but now he separates a mother from her son. Among all sufferings, none is greater than the suffering of separation from loved ones. Based on this, where is the compassion?' She said to Maudgalyayana: 'Return and tell the World-Honored One what I have said.' At that time, Mahamaudgalyayana (the full name of Maudgalyayana) again used various skillful means and causes and conditions, advising and exhorting her according to the situation, repeatedly and again. Yasodhara had no intention of listening at all. She bid farewell to Maudgalyayana and returned to King Suddhodana (the father of Sakyamuni Buddha), reporting the above matters in detail.

闻是已，令唤夫人波阇波提，王告夫人：“我子悉达遣目连来迎取罗云，欲令入道修学圣法。耶输陀罗，女人愚痴未解法要，心坚意固缠着恩爱，情无纵舍。卿可往彼重谏谢之，令其心悟。” 时大夫人即便将侍从五百青衣，往至耶输陀罗所住宫中，种种方便随宜谏喻，反覆再三。耶输陀罗，犹故不听，白夫人曰：“我在家时，八国诸王竞来见求，父母不许。所以者何？释迦太子才艺过人，是故父母以我配之。太子尔时知不住世出家学道，何故殷勤苦求我耶？夫人娶妇正为恩好，聚集欢乐万世相承，子孙相续绍继宗嗣，世之正礼太子既去，复求罗睺欲令出家，永绝国嗣，有何义哉？”尔时皇后，闻是语已，默然无言，不知所云。 尔时世尊即遣化人空中告言：“耶输陀罗！汝颇忆念往古世时誓愿事不？释迦如来当尔之时为菩萨道，以五百银钱从汝买得五茎莲华，上定光佛。时汝求我，世世所生共为夫妻。我不欲受，即语汝言：‘我为菩萨，累劫行愿，一切布施，不逆人意。汝能尔者，听为我妻。’汝立誓言：‘世世所生，国城妻子及与我身，随君施与，誓无悔心。’而今何故爱惜罗睺，不令出家学圣道耶？”耶输陀罗闻是语已，霍然还识宿业因缘，往事明了如昨所见，爱子之情自然消歇，遣唤目连忏悔辞 现代汉语译本：听了这些话，国王便命人召来夫人波阇波提（Mahapajapati，释迦牟尼的姨母），告诉夫人：‘我的儿子悉达多（Siddhartha，释迦牟尼的本名）派目连（Maudgalyayana，释迦牟尼的弟子，以神通著称）来接罗云（Rahula，释迦牟尼的儿子），想让他出家修习圣法。耶输陀罗（Yasodhara，罗云的母亲，释迦牟尼的妻子），女人家愚昧无知，不明白佛法的精要，心意坚定固执，缠绵于恩爱之中，感情上不肯放手。你可前往她的住所，再次劝说她，让她醒悟。’ 当时，大夫人立刻带领五百名青衣侍女，前往耶输陀罗所居住的宫中，用各种方便的方法，适当地劝谏开导，反复多次。耶输陀罗仍然不听从，对夫人说：‘我未出嫁时，八个国家的诸位国王都来求亲，我的父母都没有答应。这是为什么呢？因为释迦太子（Siddhartha，释迦牟尼的本名）的才艺超过常人，所以我的父母才把我许配给他。太子当时明明知道自己不会长久住在家中，终究要出家修道，为什么还要殷勤地苦苦追求我呢？夫人娶妻，本是为了恩爱，聚集欢乐，世代相传，子孙相继，继承宗嗣，这是世间的正理。太子既然已经离去，又要让罗睺（Rahula，释迦牟尼的儿子）出家，永远断绝了国家的后嗣，这有什么道理呢？’当时，皇后听了这些话，沉默不语，不知该说什么好。 这时，世尊（Lord Buddha）便派遣化身在空中说道：‘耶输陀罗（Yasodhara）！你还记得往昔世时的誓愿吗？释迦如来（Shakyamuni Tathagata）当时还是菩萨（Bodhisattva）的时候，用五百银钱从你那里买得了五茎莲花，供养定光佛（Dipankara Buddha）。当时你请求我，希望生生世世都结为夫妻。我不想接受，就对你说：‘我身为菩萨，累劫修行，一切布施，不违背他人的意愿。你如果能做到这样，就听凭你做我的妻子。’你立下誓言：‘生生世世，我的国城、妻子以及我的身体，都随你布施，我发誓绝无后悔之心。’而今为什么又爱惜罗睺（Rahula），不让他出家修习圣道呢？’耶输陀罗听了这些话，顿时回忆起前世的因缘，往事清晰明了，如同昨日所见，爱子之情自然消退，于是派人叫来目连（Maudgalyayana），忏悔谢罪。
