English version The Sutra of Buddha's Heart, Also Connecting to the Great Compassion Dharani, Volume 1 Translated by Tripitaka Bodhiruci under Imperial Decree Thus have I heard. At one time, the Buddha resided on the summit of Mount Vajra (Diamond Mountain) in the country of Kuyem (俱焰弥国). Surveying the ten directions, all appeared to be the color of fire. At that time, the Tathagata (如来) sighed deeply, observing all sentient beings without distinction. 'Excellent, how should these sentient beings be saved?' After contemplating this, all the Buddha-worlds, as well as the realms of all Bodhisattvas, from the Thirty-three Heavens (Trayastrimsa) above to the ten Vajra boundaries and the demon palaces below, all trembled. At that time, all Buddhas of the past, present, and future, responded with correct thought. Furthermore, there were Bodhisattvas who remained unmoved within their own minds. Furthermore, there were Vajras (金刚), leading their retinues, performing Vajra deeds, uneasy in their seats. In the ten directions, there were also various celestial beings, immortals, and demonic beings, fleeing in fear without a place to go. At that time, the ten Vajragarbha Bodhisattvas (金刚藏菩萨) stepped forward, adjusted their robes, and said to the Buddha: 'World Honored One, is this auspicious sign an evil omen or a good omen?' At that time, the Tathagata only contemplated to himself and did not answer. At that time, in the assembly, there was a Bodhisattva named Vajrapani (金刚愍), who said to Vajragarbha Bodhisattva: 'This sign is not good. The Buddha is now in compassion, entering the Samadhi of Loving-kindness (慈心三昧), it cannot be called good. Let us purify our minds and await the Buddha's proclamation.' At that time, there was also a Bodhisattva named Gunagarbha (德藏菩萨), who asked Vajrapani: 'What is called the Samadhi of Loving-kindness?' Vajrapani replied: 'It is precisely the place of rescue and protection. Excellent, excellent.' At that time, each purified their body and mind. In a short moment, they saw the Buddha's heart pervading all sentient beings. At that time, the Tathagata arose from Samadhi and said: 'Virtuous men, excellent, excellent, sentient beings are almost entirely submerged. Do you all know this? I now see that these sentient beings do not understand my Dharma, do not know my heart, cannot reach my realm, and are controlled by demons. How can they be saved? Who has a method or plan to protect them? Who has a method or plan to subdue this poison?' At that time, there were twenty kotis of nayutas of Bodhisattvas, all of whom were inaugurated Dharma princes, with majestic virtue and freedom, who came before the Buddha and said: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 世尊我有菩萨慈。佛言此非慈摄。复有百千万亿恒河沙数世界金刚密迹。一一密迹持四天下力士。前白佛言。世尊我能力摄。佛言金刚此非力摄。其时复有一切世界大自在天。能变身为佛来白佛言。世尊我有自在变化所摄。佛言非汝幻惑所知。于众会中有一菩萨名曰实德。白佛言世尊如是金刚菩萨天仙。皆悉不能摄持。佛今如何令诸众生得脱此难。尔时如来告实德菩萨言。唯有如来心中心之不能及。何以故。能令诸魔生大慈故。能令诸法随应现故。能令诸佛常不离故。能令诸菩萨为眷属故。能令诸金刚施威力故。能令诸天众常拥护故。诸大药叉罗刹成助法众故。能令一切诸大鬼神生欢喜故。能令所持诵者等佛力故。等佛心故。等佛智故。等佛威故。能令持者心所为作无不办故。能令所有障难皆断绝故。帝释梵王常扶持故。能令一切直至菩提无退转故。世间所有事业自明了故。乃至过去未来现在。一切世界有通无通有智无智有贤无贤。尽归伏故。尔时大会闻说此已。咸欲听受。于大众中忽起光明过百千日。尔时实德菩萨问佛言。此是何光何等因缘。答言此欢喜光从心中心生。世尊当知此光不可量不可称。不可赞叹亦无印可。何以故为同诸佛无印可故。同诸如来无所得故一切诸相亦无见故。守慎诸根无舍离故。使诸魔怨不 { "translations": [ "现代汉语译本:", "世尊,我拥有菩萨的慈悲。(菩萨:梵文Bodhisattva的音译,指立志成佛的修行者)", "佛说:‘这并非慈悲所能涵盖。’", "这时,又有百千万亿恒河沙数世界的金刚密迹(金刚密迹:佛教护法神),每一位金刚密迹都拥有四大天下的力士。", "他们上前禀告佛说:‘世尊,我能以力量摄伏。’", "佛说:‘金刚,这并非力量所能摄伏。’", "当时,又有一切世界的大自在天(大自在天:佛教欲界顶天的天主),能变化成佛的形象来禀告佛说:‘世尊,我拥有自在变化所能摄伏。’", "佛说:‘这不是你的幻惑所能了解的。’", "在众会中,有一位菩萨名叫实德(实德:菩萨名)。他禀告佛说:‘世尊,像这些金刚、菩萨、天仙,都不能够摄持,佛现在要如何使众生能够脱离这些灾难呢?’", "这时,如来告诉实德菩萨说:‘只有如来心中心(心中心:指如来之心,一切法的中心)的力量是不可及的。’", "‘为什么呢?因为它能使众魔生起大慈悲心。’", "‘能使一切诸法随着因缘显现。’", "‘能使诸佛永远不离开。’", "‘能使诸菩萨成为眷属。’", "‘能使诸金刚施展威力。’", "‘能使诸天众常常拥护。’", "‘能使诸大药叉(药叉:一种守护神)、罗刹(罗刹:一种恶鬼)成为辅助佛法的眷属。’", "‘能使一切诸大鬼神生起欢喜心。’", "‘能使持诵心中心法的人,获得等同于佛的力量。’", "‘等同于佛的心。’", "‘等同于佛的智慧。’", "‘等同于佛的威德。’", "‘能使修持者心中所想所做的事情没有不成功的。’", "‘能使所有障碍和灾难都断绝。’", "‘能使帝释(帝释:佛教护法神)和梵王(梵王:佛教护法神)常常扶持。’", "‘能使一切众生直至菩提(菩提:觉悟)永不退转。’", "‘世间所有事业自然明了。’", "‘乃至过去、未来、现在,一切世界,无论有神通或无神通,有智慧或无智慧,有贤能或无贤能,都完全归顺。’", "当时,大会听闻这些话后,都想听受心中心法。在众人之中忽然升起光明,胜过百千个太阳。", "这时,实德菩萨问佛说:‘这是什么光?是什么因缘产生的?’", "佛回答说:‘这是欢喜光,从心中心生起。世尊,应当知道,此光不可衡量,不可称量,不可赞叹,也没有印可。’", "‘为什么呢?因为它与诸佛一样,没有印可。’", "‘与诸如来一样,没有所得。一切诸相也无法看见。’", "‘守护谨慎诸根,没有舍离。’", "‘使诸魔怨不…’", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "",
