尔时善胜天子白文殊师利言：“此诸菩萨从何方来？” 文殊答言：“如花来处，是所从来。” 天言：“此花化生，无所从来。” 文殊复言：“彼诸菩萨当知亦尔！” 尔时世尊即便微笑，从其口中放种种光，青、黄、赤、白、颇梨等色，遍照十方无量刹土，上至梵世，蔽日月光，还从顶入。时善胜天子即从坐起，偏袒右肩，右膝着地，合掌向佛，以偈赞曰： “清净金色光， 妙相三十二， 具亿那由他， 无比胜功德， 能救世间者， 何故现微笑？ 梵音深且远， 所言净微妙， 恒蕰七圣财， 放大智慧光， 迦陵伽声音， 愿说微笑义。 世雄大丈夫， 降魔及异道， 常为诸天人， 修罗等供养， 具足十力者， 何故现微笑？ 一切贪恚痴， 尘恼智慧障， 永断无余习， 面如净满月， 普施安乐者， 愿说微笑义。 善逝天人师， 无量功德聚， 其心常平等， 具足行众善， 开解一切者， 何故现微笑？ 常持大慧灯， 破黑闇稠林， 游步若牛王， 无畏如师子， 利益众生者， 愿说微笑义。 人中最尊胜， 难见难可测， 无我无谄曲， 超 现代汉语译本 二相庄严其身。 这时，善胜天子（Shansheng Tianzi）问文殊师利（Wenshu Shili）菩萨：‘这些菩萨从哪里来？’ 文殊师利菩萨回答说：‘如同花朵的来处，就是他们所来的地方。’ 善胜天子说：‘这些花是化生出来的，没有特定的来处。’ 文殊师利菩萨又说：‘这些菩萨应当知道也是如此！’ 这时，世尊（Shizun）便微笑起来，从口中放出种种光芒，青色、黄色、红色、白色、颇梨（poli，水晶）等颜色，遍照十方无量刹土，上至梵世（Fan Shi），遮蔽了日月的光芒，然后又从头顶进入。这时，善胜天子立即从座位上站起来，袒露右肩，右膝跪地，合掌向佛，用偈颂赞叹道： ‘清净的金色光芒， 美妙的三十二相， 具足亿那由他（nayuta，数量单位）， 无比殊胜的功德， 能够救度世间的人， 为何显现微笑？ 梵音深远而悠长， 所说的话语清净微妙， 恒常具备七圣财， 放大智慧的光芒， 发出迦陵伽（Kalilingjia）鸟的声音， 愿您解说微笑的含义。 世间的英雄大丈夫， 降伏魔众和异端， 常为诸天人， 以及修罗（xiuluo）等供养， 具足十力的人， 为何显现微笑？ 一切的贪婪、嗔恨、愚痴， 尘世的烦恼、智慧的障碍， 永远断除没有剩余的习气， 面容如同清净圆满的月亮， 普遍施予安乐的人， 愿您解说微笑的含义。 善逝（Shanshi）天人师， 无量功德的聚集， 内心常保平等， 具足修行各种善行， 开解一切迷惑的人， 为何显现微笑？ 常持大智慧的明灯， 破除黑暗稠密的森林， 行走如牛王般稳健， 无畏如狮子般勇猛， 利益众生的人， 愿您解说微笑的含义。 人中最尊贵殊胜的， 难以见到难以测度， 没有我执没有谄媚虚伪， 超越一切'

English version His body was adorned with two kinds of excellence. At that time, the Deva Shansheng (Shansheng Tianzi) asked Manjushri (Wenshu Shili) Bodhisattva, 'From what direction did these Bodhisattvas come?' Manjushri Bodhisattva replied, 'Like the place from which flowers come, that is where they came from.' The Deva said, 'These flowers are miraculously born; they do not come from anywhere.' Manjushri Bodhisattva further said, 'The Bodhisattvas should know that it is also like this!' At that time, the World Honored One (Shizun) then smiled, and from his mouth emitted various lights, blue, yellow, red, white, crystal (poli), and other colors, illuminating countless lands in the ten directions, reaching up to the Brahma heavens (Fan Shi), obscuring the light of the sun and moon, and then re-entering from the crown of his head. At that time, the Deva Shansheng immediately rose from his seat, bared his right shoulder, knelt on his right knee, joined his palms towards the Buddha, and praised him with a verse: 'Pure golden light, Wonderful thirty-two marks, Possessing billions of nayutas (nayuta, a unit of quantity), Incomparable and supreme merits, One who can save the world, Why do you show a smile? The Brahma sound is deep and far-reaching, The words spoken are pure and subtle, Constantly possessing the seven holy treasures, Emitting great wisdom light, With the sound of the Kalavinka (Kalilingjia) bird, May you explain the meaning of the smile. Worldly hero and great man, Subduing demons and heretics, Always worshiped by devas and humans, As well as asuras (xiuluo) and others, One who possesses the ten powers, Why do you show a smile? All greed, hatred, and delusion, The afflictions of the world, the hindrances to wisdom, Eternally cutting off without remaining habits, Face like a pure and full moon, One who universally bestows peace and happiness, May you explain the meaning of the smile. Sugata (Shanshi), teacher of devas and humans, A collection of immeasurable merits, Whose mind is always equanimous, Possessing the practice of all good deeds, One who unravels all confusion, Why do you show a smile? Constantly holding the lamp of great wisdom, Breaking through the dark and dense forest, Walking like a king of oxen, Fearless like a lion, One who benefits sentient beings, May you explain the meaning of the smile. Most honored and supreme among humans, Difficult to see and difficult to fathom, Without self and without deceit, Transcending all' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 越诸有海， 智力自在者， 何故现微笑？ 千辐网缦足， 三界无伦匹， 竭涸生死流， 断绝愚痴网， 善哉大智者， 愿说微笑义。”
