English version: The Buddha Speaks the Sutra on the Determination of Total Retention Translated by Dharma Rakṣa, a Tripiṭaka Master from Yuezhi during the Western Jin Dynasty Thus have I heard: At one time, the Buddha was in Mount Gṛdhrakūṭa (Vulture Peak) in Rāmagṛha (Rajgir), together with a large assembly of bhikṣus (monks), twelve hundred and fifty bhikṣus in all, and eighty thousand bodhisattvas. All the great sages had attained supernatural powers, were irreversible, and had ultimately realized all dharmas (teachings). They had attained the subtle eloquence of dhāraṇī (total retention), understood the appropriateness of skillful means, were adept at learning the countless precepts of bodhisattvas, entered into the profound essentials, embodied and understood the assembly of the twelve links of dependent origination (dvādaśāṅga-pratītyasamutpāda), acted without creation, and were free from emptiness, signlessness, wishlessness, non-arising, and non-ceasing. They caused all dharmas to enter into one path, embraced the treasury of dharmas with their ocean-like wisdom and understanding, their minds were vast and universal, their sacred awareness was boundless, they clearly recognized the meanings of all things, and distinguished the beauty of words, phrases, and sentences. They answered every question without obstruction, understood the minds of all beings, dissolved all bonds, their minds were equal like space, without hatred or love, free from all defilements, peaceful and eternally at ease, attaining flawlessness and establishing the great vehicle's (Mahāyāna) field. They expounded the light of wisdom, subdued external teachings, like the sun's brightness extinguishing the light of fireflies, as well as the brilliance of maṇi jewels, fire, and lightning, cutting off indulgence, abandoning all inversions, and the views of permanence, annihilation, and cessation that were clung to. They understood that there is no self (anātman), no lifespan, no life, no person, no nourishment, and quietly observed all that arises. For countless kalpas (eons), they practiced the bodhisattva path, wore the armor of righteous virtue, enlightened all beings with the six perfections (ṣaṭpāramitā), cultivated the four kindnesses. From skillful means, they emerged from the path of birth and death, using this to guide confused beings, showing them fortune and misfortune, rescuing them from suffering and distress, so that they would no longer create the roots of birth and death, and all could advance to the gate of samādhi (concentration). Their names were: Bodhisattva No-Sorrow-Head, Bodhisattva Lion-Joy, Bodhisattva Light-Glory-King, Bodhisattva Brahma-Sound-Resounding-Like-Thunder-Rain, Bodhisattva Immeasurable-Virtue-Treasure, Bodhisattva Assorted-Flowers, Bodhisattva Adorned-with-Various-Necklaces, Bodhisattva Stone-Mill-King, Bodhisattva Dharma-Rain, Bodhisattva Lotus-Head-Treasury-King, Bodhisattva Destroying-False-Disgusting-Views, Bodhisattva Great-Wisdom-Light, Bodhisattva Eloquent-Explanation-of-Various -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 种王菩萨,如是等类菩萨八万。 尔时,世尊与无央数百千之众眷属围绕而为说经,其法名曰决总持门。 彼时会中有族姓子等辈十人,咸共听受,闻如来宣决总持门,欣然踊跃善心生焉,弃捐睡眠乐处闲居,修止足德专志经行,夙夜精进无敢懈怠,离于放逸贪欲之想,如是殷勤不废精诵至于七年,终竟七载其心驰骋,不得须臾定息一时,何况乃当逮总持门!不得所愿,其意患厌节德闲居,乐于睡眠废于精进,不复经行舍欲之事,不复修学总持之门。释沙门服舍戒就贱,迷惑志性求圣教短,皆归居家还习五业。 于时,世尊为王阿阇贳决虚妄疑已除犹豫,七日寂然则演圣威。因令其王不为放逸心怀诤讼,解散王结一切调戏诸所见缚。竟七日已,与七亿人往诣佛所,欲启受法;十族姓子求圣短者,亦侍从王在于大众。 是时座中,有一菩萨名无怯行,致得总持,从无数劫成就法忍,逮无从生无有颠倒,辩才无量入一切智,正慧道力分别随顺,度无极行,晓无思议总持门品,普见一切众生志性根无所趣,应可化者而为说法不失其本。即从座起偏露右肩,右膝着地,叉手白佛:“惟,天中天!此族姓子等类十人出家修道,夙夜精进七岁不懈,欲求总持所愿不获,失其本志舍沙门服,还家居业察圣教 { "translations": [ "现代汉语译本:还有种王菩萨(具有高贵血统的菩萨)等八万位菩萨。", "", "当时,世尊被无数百千的眷属围绕,为他们宣说佛经,这部经的名字叫做《决总持门》。", "", "那时,法会中有十位出身高贵的年轻人,他们一起听受佛法,听到如来宣讲《决总持门》后,欣喜雀跃,生起善良之心,放弃睡眠,喜欢在安静的地方居住,修习知足的美德,专心致志地经行,日夜精进,不敢懈怠,远离放逸和贪欲的念头。他们这样殷勤不懈地精进诵读了七年,但在这七年中,他们的心始终奔波不定,没有片刻的安定,更不用说获得总持之门了!由于无法实现愿望,他们感到厌倦,厌恶节制和清净的生活,喜欢睡眠,荒废精进,不再经行,舍弃了对欲望的控制,不再修学总持之门。他们脱下沙门的服装,放弃戒律,去追求低贱的生活,迷惑于自己的心性,寻找圣教的缺点,都回到家中,重新从事原来的五种行业。", "", "这时,世尊为阿阇世王(一位国王)决断虚妄的疑惑,消除了他的犹豫,七天保持寂静,然后展现圣威。因此,国王不再放逸,心中不再有争讼,解开了国王心中的结,摆脱了一切调戏和所见到的束缚。七天结束后,他与七亿人一起前往佛陀所在的地方,想要请求接受佛法;那十位寻求圣教缺点的高贵青年,也侍奉在国王身边,身处大众之中。", "", "这时,在座位中,有一位菩萨名叫无怯行(无所畏惧的菩萨),他获得了总持,从无数劫以来成就了法忍,获得了无从生起、没有颠倒的智慧,拥有无量的辩才,进入了一切智,具备正慧之道力,能够分别随顺众生的根器,度化无边无际的众生,通晓不可思议的总持门品,普遍见到一切众生的志向和根器,知道他们没有明确的目标,能够为那些可以被教化的人说法,而不失去佛法的根本。" + "他立即从座位上站起来,袒露右肩,右膝跪地,合掌对佛说:‘世尊!这十位出身高贵的年轻人出家修道,日夜精进,七年不懈,想要寻求总持,但没有实现愿望,失去了最初的志向,脱下沙门的服装,回到家中从事原来的行业,并且还挑剔圣教。’" ], "english_translations": [ "English version: Furthermore, there were eighty thousand Bodhisattvas, including Bodhisattvas like the Seed King Bodhisattva (Bodhisattvas of noble lineage).", "", "At that time, the World Honored One, surrounded by countless hundreds of thousands of attendants, was expounding a sutra, the Dharma of which was called the 'Definitive Gate of Total Retention'.", "", "Then, in that assembly, there were ten young men of noble families who together listened and received the Dharma. Upon hearing the Thus Come One proclaim the 'Definitive Gate of Total Retention', they were filled with joy and generated virtuous minds. They abandoned sleep, delighted in dwelling in quiet places, cultivated the virtue of contentment, and devoted themselves to diligent practice, striving day and night without daring to be lax, and free from indulgence and thoughts of greed. They were so diligent and unremitting in their recitation for seven years, but throughout those seven years, their minds remained restless, without a moment of stillness, let alone attaining the Gate of Total Retention! Unable to achieve their desires, they became weary and厌恶 of their disciplined and secluded lives, indulging in sleep, abandoning diligence, ceasing their walking meditation, relinquishing their control over desires, and no longer studying the Gate of Total Retention. They discarded their monastic robes, abandoned their precepts, and pursued base desires, becoming deluded in their minds, seeking faults in the Holy Teachings, and all returned home to resume their original five occupations.", "", "At that time, the World Honored One, having resolved the false doubts of King Ajatasatru (a king) and dispelled his hesitation, remained silent for seven days and then manifested his sacred power. Consequently, the king ceased to be indulgent, his mind was free from contention, and he untied the knots in his heart, freeing himself from all amusements and perceived bonds. After seven days, he went with seven hundred million people to the place where the Buddha was, desiring to request and receive the Dharma; the ten noble youths who sought faults in the Holy Teachings also attended the king, being among the great assembly.", "", "At that time, in the assembly, there was a Bodhisattva named Fearless Conduct (a Bodhisattva without fear), who had attained Total Retention, had cultivated patience in the Dharma for countless eons, had attained wisdom that arises from nowhere and is free from delusion, possessed immeasurable eloquence, had entered into all wisdom, possessed the power of the path of right wisdom, was able to discern and accord with the capacities of beings, liberate limitless beings, understood the inconceivable categories of the Gate of Total Retention, universally saw the aspirations and roots of all beings, knew that they had no clear direction, and was able to teach the Dharma to those who could be transformed without losing the essence of the Dharma. He immediately rose from his seat, bared his right shoulder, knelt on his right knee, and with palms joined, said to the Buddha: 'World Honored One! These ten noble youths renounced their homes to cultivate the Way, striving diligently day and night for seven years without懈怠, desiring to seek Total Retention, but they did not achieve their desires, lost their original aspirations, discarded their monastic robes, returned home to their original occupations, and now find fault with the Holy Teachings.'" ] } --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
