English version: Thus I have heard. At one time, the Buddha was traveling in the great cluster of trees in Vaishali (Vaishali, an ancient Indian city). There was a monastery named Jialu Zhuangyan. He was with a gathering of 300,000 great Bhikshus (Bhikshu, a Buddhist monk). At that time, the Buddha was about to relinquish his life and had set a date three months hence for his Parinirvana (Parinirvana, a Buddhist term referring to the death of a Buddha or Arhat). Then, the Buddha told the wise Mahāmaudgalyāyana (Mahāmaudgalyāyana, one of the Buddha's ten great disciples) to go to the Trisahasra-Mahasahasra-lokadhatu (Trisahasra-Mahasahasra-lokadhatu, a world system in Buddhist cosmology) and summon all the Śrāvakas (Śrāvaka, practitioners who attain enlightenment by hearing the Buddha's teachings), Pratyekabuddhas (Pratyekabuddha, practitioners who attain enlightenment on their own without relying on the teachings of others), and those who have generated Bodhi-citta (Bodhi-citta, the mind of enlightenment, the aspiration to become a Buddha) to come to the assembly. Mahāmaudgalyāyana immediately accepted the teaching, bowed at the Buddha's feet, and departed. Relying on his own merit, he stepped onto the summit of Mount Sumeru (Sumeru, the sacred mountain in Buddhist cosmology) in one stride. Receiving the Buddha's majestic spiritual power, he began to contemplate what Samadhi (Samadhi, meditative absorption) he should enter to make his invitation heard throughout the three thousand worlds. Immediately, he entered the Samadhi as he had thought, and his voice was heard everywhere in the ten directions. At that time, one million Bhikshus came to the monastery for the assembly. The wise Śāriputra (Śāriputra, one of the Buddha's ten great disciples) also generated the thought: 'I should also enter Samadhi, wanting to know where the Bhikshus are within Jambudvipa (Jambudvipa, the world we live in), whether near or far, and gather them all.' Then, as he had thought, all the Bhikshus gathered, and he knew their locations. At that time, 400,000 Bhikshus came to the monastery for the assembly. The Buddha then told the Anupalabdhi-lakshana Bodhisattva (Anupalabdhi-lakshana Bodhisattva), Mrdu-shira Bodhisattva (Mrdu-shira Bodhisattva), Sarva-klesha-prahana Bodhisattva (Sarva-klesha-prahana Bodhisattva), Sarva-durgati-nirghatana Bodhisattva (Sarva-durgati-nirghatana Bodhisattva), Sarva-avarana-vishkambhin Bodhisattva (Sarva-avarana-vishkambhin Bodhisattva), Sarva-satva-namaskrta-svatantra Bodhisattva (Sarva-satva-namaskrta-svatantra Bodhisattva), Suvikranta-gamana Bodhisattva (Suvikranta-gamana Bodhisattva), Sarva-gandha-hasta Bodhisattva (Sarva-gandha-hasta Bodhisattva), Eka-vyuha-prati-svaranakoti-niyuta-shata-sahasra-prati-bhanavant Bodhisattva (Eka-vyuha-prati-svaranakoti-niyuta-shata-sahasra-prati-bhanavant Bodhisattva), Maitreya Bodhisattva (Maitreya Bodhisattva), and other Bodhisattvas: 'Good men, go to the Buddha lands in the ten directions, as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River, and summon all those who have generated Bodhi-citta, those who have attained Avaivartika (Avaivartika, non-retrogression) and those who have not attained Avaivartika, those who have attained Anutpattika-dharma-kshanti (Anutpattika-dharma-kshanti, the realization of the truth of the non-arising and non-ceasing of all dharmas) and those who have not attained Anutpattika-dharma-kshanti, and have them all come to the Jialu monastery for the assembly.' The ten Bodhisattvas and others each accepted the Buddha's teaching, bowed, and --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: Then, they traveled to countless lands as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River in the ten directions. At that time, eighty billion hundred thousand Bodhisattvas destined to Buddhahood in their next life (Eka-jati-pratibaddha Bodhisattvas) came to the assembly. A billion hundred thousand Avaivartika Bodhisattvas (non-regressing Bodhisattvas) came to the assembly. Thirty billion Bodhisattvas who had attained the Dharma-kshanti of non-origination (Anutpattika-dharma-kshanti Bodhisattvas) came to the assembly. Sixty billion Bodhisattvas liberated by pure intention came to the assembly. Innumerable beings who had initially aspired to the Great Vehicle and practiced in accordance with the Dharma, all relying on the majestic power of the Buddha, flew from the ten directions to this place, paid homage to the Buddha, and sat together. At that time, Shariputra (one of the Buddha's ten principal disciples, known for his wisdom) saw that the ranks and abodes of the Bodhisattvas were different, yet they all flew to the assembly in the same manner. He was astonished and thought: 'This must be due to the merit and spiritual power of the Buddha, but what is the reason that they come to the assembly in this way?' Thereupon, Shariputra rose from his seat, paid homage to the Buddha, knelt with his palms together, and said to the Buddha: 'I have doubts in my mind and now wish to ask the Buddha, so that the Bodhisattvas in this assembly may gain true faith, and each may attain their proper place upon hearing the Buddha's teachings. May the teachings spoken by Buddhas as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River be heard equally by all beings, and may they attain purity. May countless people be able to answer all kinds of questions they are asked. What practice must one follow to never lose one's way and quickly attain the unsurpassed path of equality, achieving the most perfect enlightenment (Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi)?' The Buddha said: 'Excellent, excellent, Shariputra! It is truly wonderful that you wish to inquire about this meaning for the sake of all the Bodhisattva-Mahasattvas (great Bodhisattvas)!' The Buddha said: 'Listen carefully and contemplate well. I will explain it to you in depth, so that all who hear it may quickly attain the unsurpassed path of equality, achieving the most perfect enlightenment.' The Buddha told Shariputra: 'These Bodhisattvas have already attained the ability corresponding to this Dharani (a mnemonic device, referring to a mantra or teaching that encapsulates and retains all Dharma meanings), which illuminates all Dharmas and guides all Dharmas.' What is the reason for this? It is because they are for the sake of the people of the world. The Buddha told Shariputra: 'Bodhisattvas have four practices by which they can attain this Dharma. What are the four? First, their bodily actions are always cautious and disciplined. Second, their words are always sincere and truthful. Third, their thoughts are always gentle and compliant. Fourth, they skillfully and expediently protect all beings.' These are the four practices by which one attains this Dharma. The Buddha told Shariputra: 'Bodhisattvas also have four practices by which they can attain inexhaustible wisdom of the empty body. What are the four? First, by abiding in purity, they burn away all toilsome efforts, dissolve doubts and defilements, and liberate all beings in the world. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
