English version The Sutra on Receiving the Ten Wholesome Precepts Translated by an Unknown Person during the Later Han Dynasty Chapter One: The Ten Unwholesome Karmas Thus have I heard: At one time, the Buddha was in the Jetavana (祇陀林) of Shravasti (舍卫国), in the hermitage of Anathapindika (须达长者) and Lady Beautiful, together with a gathering of twelve hundred and fifty great Bhikshus (比丘). At that time, the World-Honored One, with a voice of loving-kindness, addressed Shariputra (舍利弗): ‘Now, for your sake, I will explain how to eliminate the unwholesome karmic consequences of the ten unwholesome deeds. Listen carefully, receive diligently! Keep them in mind with one heart, and do not forget them!’ ‘The ten unwholesome karmas are: first, the karma of killing; second, the karma of stealing; third, the karma of sexual misconduct; fourth, the karma of false speech; fifth, the karma of divisive speech; sixth, the karma of harsh speech; seventh, the karma of frivolous speech; eighth, the karma of greed; ninth, the karma of anger; tenth, the karma of ignorance. Shariputra! You should now universally teach sentient beings to purify their bodily karma, purify their verbal karma, and purify their mental karma. Prostrate with the five limbs touching the ground, take refuge in the Upadhyaya (和上, preceptor), and sincerely repent of these three unwholesome karmas; say this three times. Having repented, with bodily karma purified, verbal karma purified, and mental karma purified, then you should state your name and take refuge in the Buddha, take refuge in the Dharma, and take refuge in the Sangha; say this three times. Having taken refuge in the Buddha, having taken refuge in the Dharma, having taken refuge in the Sangha; say this three times. Then ask: ‘Good man, good woman! Are you able to uphold these precepts?’ If they say they are able to uphold them, then ask: ‘Are you now free from faults and afflictions in body and mind? Have you committed any of the following transgressions with your body: drawing blood from the body of a Buddha, killing an Arhat (阿罗汉), disrupting the harmony of the Sangha, slandering and severing roots of goodness, or opposing the Buddha's true Dharma?’ If they say no, then ask: ‘Do you have any thoughts of committing the five rebellious acts or slandering the true Dharma? Have you ever stolen anything belonging to the Buddha, the Dharma, the virtuous Sangha, the present Sangha, or the Sangha of the monastery? Have you engaged in impure conduct with your mother, sisters, or Bhikkhunis (比丘尼)?’ If they answer no, then further instruct them:’ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
