English version The Sutra of Śāriputra's Repentance Spoken by the Buddha Translated by An Shih-kao, a Tripiṭaka Master from the Parthian Kingdom during the Later Han Dynasty The Buddha was in Rājagṛha (王舍城) on Mount Gṛdhrakūṭa (灵鹫山), at that time sitting with twelve hundred and fifty Bhikshus and one thousand Bodhisattvas. The foremost disciple, Śāriputra (舍利弗), arose, knelt on his long knees, and, with palms together, asked the Buddha, 'If there are good men and good women who wish to seek the Buddha's path, and if they have committed evil deeds in previous lives, how should they repent?' The Buddha said, 'Excellent, excellent! Śāriputra! Your concern for the gods and people is truly commendable.' The Buddha said, 'If there are good men and good women who wish to seek the path of an Arhat (阿罗汉), who wish to seek the path of a Pratyekabuddha (辟支佛), who wish to seek the path of a Buddha, who wish to know about past and future events, they should always, at dawn, midday, sunset, when people are settled, midnight, and cockcrow, bathe and rinse their mouths, tidy their clothes, and, with palms together, bow to the ten directions. Facing the direction they are in, they should repent, saying: 'I, so-and-so, from countless kalpas (劫) ago, have committed transgressions and evils, up to this life's acts of lust and licentiousness, acts of anger and hatred, acts of ignorance and delusion, not knowing when the Buddha was in the world, not knowing when the Dharma existed, not knowing when the Sangha of Bhikshus existed, not knowing the standards of good and evil. If the body has committed transgressions, if the mouth has committed transgressions, if the mind has committed transgressions, if the intention has committed transgressions, if there was an intention to harm the Buddha, to be jealous and resentful of the Sutras and the Buddha's path, if there was strife within the Sangha of Bhikshus, if there was the killing of an Arhat, if there was the personal killing of parents. If the three karmas of the body, the four karmas of the mouth, and the three karmas of the mind were committed, personally killing living beings, instigating others to kill living beings, rejoicing in seeing others kill living beings; personally stealing, instigating others to steal, rejoicing in seeing others steal; personally deceiving others, instigating others to deceive others, rejoicing in seeing others deceive others; personally engaging in divisive speech, instigating others to engage in divisive speech, rejoicing in seeing others engage in divisive speech; personally cursing others, instigating others to curse others, rejoicing in seeing others curse others; personally lying and deceiving, instigating others to lie and deceive, rejoicing in seeing others lie and deceive; personally being jealous of others, instigating others to be jealous of others, seeing' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: One is jealous of others and rejoices in their misfortune; one is greedy and insatiable, instigates others to be greedy and insatiable, and rejoices in seeing others greedy and insatiable; one does not believe (in karmic retribution), instigates others not to believe, and rejoices in seeing others not believe; one does not believe that doing good brings good results and doing evil brings evil results, and rejoices in seeing others do evil; one steals sacred objects from Buddhist temples or the property of Bhikshus (Buddhist monks), instigates others to steal, and rejoices in seeing others steal; one deceives others with light scales, small measures, and short rulers, and encroaches upon others with heavy scales, large measures, and long rulers, and rejoices in seeing others encroach upon others; one deliberately becomes a robber, instigates others to become robbers, and rejoices in seeing others become robbers; one commits evil and rebellion, instigates others to commit evil and rebellion, and rejoices in seeing others commit evil and rebellion. All that one has experienced, from past lives in the five realms (five destinies), whether in hell, as an animal, as a preta (hungry ghost), or as a human, the faults and evils committed in these five realms, such as being unfilial to parents, disrespectful to teachers, disrespectful to good friends, disrespectful to virtuous Shramanas (ascetics) and Taoists, disrespectful to elders, belittling parents, belittling teachers, belittling those seeking the path of Arhat (enlightened being), belittling those seeking the path of Pratyekabuddha (solitary Buddha), or slandering and being jealous of them. Seeing the Buddha's path and saying it is wrong, seeing the evil path and saying it is right, seeing the right Dharma (teachings) and saying it is not right, seeing the wrong and saying it is right. All the faults and evils that we have committed, we wish to repent and seek forgiveness from all the Buddhas of the ten directions, so that we may not commit these faults and calamities in this life, and so that we may not suffer these faults and calamities in future lives. Why do we seek repentance and forgiveness from all the Buddhas of the ten directions? Because the Buddhas can see everything clearly and hear everything thoroughly, and we dare not deceive them. We dare not conceal our faults and evil deeds, and from now on, we dare not commit them again.’ The Buddha said to Śāriputra (one of the ten great disciples of the Buddha, known for his wisdom): ‘If there are good men and good women who do not wish to enter hell, the animal realm, or the preta realm, all the faults they have committed should be repented of, and should not be concealed. After taking the precepts, they should not commit evil again. Those who do not wish to be born in remote lands where there is no Buddha, no Sutras (scriptures), no Bhikshus (monks), no understanding of righteousness, and no distinction between good and evil, should all repent and not conceal their faults. Those who do not wish to be foolish, deaf, blind, mute, or born as butchers or hunters...’ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
