English version Record of the Translation of the *Paramārtha-dharmavijaya-sūtra* Those who love the Dharma must have deep roots of goodness. The *Nirvana Sutra* says: 'Offering to the Buddha is like offering to Buddhas as numerous as the sands of two Ganges Rivers.' The Chief Secretary of the Wei Dynasty, the co-equal Duke Gao, valued the Dharma with a sincere heart, generating a precious regard for it, widely collecting Sanskrit texts, and greatly promoting translation. This *Paramārtha-dharmavijaya-sūtra* is the essence of all Dharma gates. Duke Gao's intention was earnest and sincere, moving him to inscribe the title. The monks Tanlin and Gautama Prajñāruci, in the fourth year of Xinghe, the year of Renxu, on the Jiazi day of the ninth month, began translating, completing it in four stages, finally determining the meaning of the text, totaling five thousand five hundred seventy-six characters. *Paramārtha-dharmavijaya-sūtra* Translated by the Brahmin Gautama Prajñāruci of the Yuan Wei Dynasty Thus have I heard: At one time, the Bhagavan (Bhagavan, World-Honored One) was dwelling in the city of Gayā, not long after his enlightenment, together with the most excellent of monks, as well as ninety-nine billion Bodhisattvas, twenty-eight billion devas, eighty-six thousand monks, nuns, Upāsakas (Upāsaka, male lay devotees), Upāsikās (Upāsikā, female lay devotees), and sixty thousand strong men. There were twelve billion Niganthas (Nigantha, Jainas), and eighty-four thousand five-power ascetics—who scorched their bodies with five sources of heat, their bodies extremely emaciated, with only skin and bones remaining, the skin of their bellies clinging to their spines, their hair matted into felt, hunched over, wearing deerskin or tree bark clothing, holding water pots in their hands—all came to the place where the Buddha was, desiring to contend with him. At that time, the Bhagavan's light surpassed all others, his countenance was dignified and extraordinary, exceeding all the ascetics, like Mount Sumeru (Sumeru, the center of the world) in the Black Mountains, like the six-tusked elephant king in a flock of sheep, like a firefly before the sun and moon, like a Mandala flower (Mandala, circular flower) among fragrant blossoms, like the Garuda king (Garuda, mythical bird) among birds, possessing twofold dignity; the Buddha was also like this among all the ascetics. At that time, the Bhagavan entered the Śrīgarbha-samādhi (Śrīgarbha-samādhi), manifesting immeasurable and countless supernormal powers, emitting immeasurable light from both his left and right sides, manifesting immeasurable billions of Tathāgata bodies... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: From the bodies of immeasurable billions of Bodhisattvas, emanated immeasurable billions of lords of the worlds, such as Indra (King of Gods), Mahabrahma (Great Brahma, lord of the Form Realm); again emanated immeasurable hundreds of thousands of Arhats (liberated saints); again emanated immeasurable many thousands of Bhikkhus (monks), Bhikkhunis (nuns), Upasakas (laymen), Upasikas (laywomen); again emanated immeasurable Chakravartin Kings (Wheel-Turning Kings, ideal rulers who govern the world with righteousness), powerful Wheel-Turning Kings, lesser Wheel-Turning Kings, Hanbhulinna (a personal name), and Dravida (South India), people of the Southern lands, mantra-attaining immortals, people of border regions, Kshatriyas (warrior class) of great families, and Brahmanas (priest class), elders, householders, humans and non-humans, and various different kinds of adorned beings. All those with names, even the heavenly hosts, all emanated from the body of the Tathagata (Thus Come One, Buddha). At that time, the great assembly all became doubtful, wondering 'How?' They looked at each other. All the Bodhisattvas in that great assembly rejoiced, raining down all kinds of treasures, even universally raining down all kinds of adornments. At that time, the World-Honored One arose from the Samadhi of Relinquishing Treasures, observed the ten directions with lion-like vigor, and in that observation, pervaded the ten directions, even to the realm seen by the Buddha-eye. All the Buddhas, World-Honored Ones, in the Buddha-worlds of the ten directions, all those Buddhas observed the Saha world (the world we inhabit) as if looking at the palm of their hand. All those Buddhas manifested their spiritual powers, no different from those manifested by this World-Honored One, Sakyamuni (founder of Buddhism). All those emanations from the bodies of those Tathagatas were all like this, arriving at the assembly of the World-Honored One, Sakyamuni. Having arrived here, they all entered into the great assembly of the World-Honored One. At that time, the immeasurable Bodhisattvas in this assembly, together with as many Bhikkhus, Bhikkhunis, Upasakas, and Upasikas as there are sands in the Ganges River, all offered the World-Honored One with unspeakable offerings. Having made their offerings, they drew near and dwelt with the Tathagata. Like this, Devas (gods), Nagas (serpent deities), and all the Yakshas (nature spirits), all the Gandharvas (celestial musicians), all the Asuras (demigods), all the Garudas (mythical birds), all the Kinnaras (celestial musicians), Mahoragas (serpent deities), humans and non-humans, having seen the World-Honored One's spiritual feats, all came to the Buddha's place. At that time, the Bodhisattvas who came from the ten directions offered the World-Honored One with supreme offerings. Having made their offerings, they sat upon the seats accomplished by the Six Paramitas (Perfections: Generosity, Morality, Patience, Diligence, Concentration, Wisdom). Like this, even to -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 至人非人等,随自相似座上而坐。

世尊所化,上去乃至阿迦尼吒诸天宫殿、下去乃至阿鼻地狱。又,到阿鼻地狱处已,彼十方佛身所化出一切皆入释迦牟尼一切毛根,此处世尊释迦牟尼身所化出一切皆入十方佛身。   尔时,会中有一菩萨摩诃萨名曰胜阴,从座而起,整服一厢,右膝着地,合掌向佛以偈赞言: “人主!甚希有,  速示诸世间,  本未曾有此。  魔军隐不现,  迭相瞻说言:  ‘此事甚希有。  我何因来此?  为令破坏故。  我仙今非仙,  身瘦唯有皮,  老干无有乐,  不得此神通。  现神通不说,  除佛法棘刺。’  佛弟子朝喜,  尊作佛法主,  众生希有想,  心清净欢喜。  诸天众皆言:  ‘愿得佛。人主!’  此众会中住,  文殊师利向,  无量佛弟子,  相随在此会。  此文殊师利,  已多佛供养,  佛于此大众,  现种种神通。  此是何法相?  牟尼欲何为?  此众有疑心,  愿愍众生说。”   尔时,如来以威神力令众会中一大仙人——名光明炬——语彼胜阴大菩萨言:“童子默然,童子默然。我今难问,若能解释自清净者,如一切智相应得名。若那罗延、摩醯首罗所作幻化陀毗罗咒,如是作 现代汉语译本: 至人(具有极高智慧的人)与其他人一样,各自在相似的座位上坐下。 世尊(释迦牟尼佛)所化现的景象,向上到达阿迦尼吒诸天宫殿(色界顶天的最高处),向下到达阿鼻地狱(八大地狱的最底层)。并且,到达阿鼻地狱之后,十方诸佛的身所化现的一切都进入释迦牟尼佛的一切毛孔之中,而世尊释迦牟尼佛的身所化现的一切都进入十方诸佛的身中。 这时,会中有一位菩萨摩诃萨(伟大的菩萨)名叫胜阴,从座位上站起来,整理好衣服的一边,右膝跪地,合掌向佛,用偈颂赞叹道: ‘人主(佛陀)!真是太稀有了, 请迅速向诸世间展示, 这是前所未有的景象。 魔军隐藏起来不显现, 互相看着说: “这件事真是太稀有了。 我为何来到这里? 本想破坏佛事。 我的仙人如今不像仙人, 身体瘦弱只剩下皮, 像老树干一样没有乐趣, 无法获得这种神通。 现在显现神通却不说, 除去佛法的荆棘。 ” 佛弟子们早上欢喜, 您是佛法的尊主, 众生心生稀有之想, 内心清净而欢喜。 诸天众都说: “愿能证得佛果。人主(佛陀)!” 这位住在众会中的, 是面向文殊师利(智慧第一的菩萨)的, 无量佛弟子, 相随在此法会。 这位文殊师利, 已经供养过很多佛, 佛在此大众中, 展现种种神通。 这是什么法相? 牟尼(释迦牟尼佛的称号)想要做什么? 此众心中有疑问, 愿您慈悲怜悯众生,为我们解说。’ 这时,如来用威神力让众会中的一位大仙人——名叫光明炬——对胜阴大菩萨说:‘童子,安静,童子,安静。我现在要提出难题,如果能够解释清楚,自身清净,就能得到与一切智相应的名号。如果那罗延(印度教神祇,毗湿奴的化身)、摩醯首罗(印度教神祇,湿婆的别名)所作的幻化陀毗罗咒,像那样……’
