English version Vajra Needle Treatise Composed by Bodhisattva Dharmakirti (法称菩萨) Translated by Dharma Master Fa Tian (法天), Minister of the Honglu Temple and Great Master of Spreading Teachings, under Imperial Decree As the Brahmins say, among all the scriptures, the Four Vedas (四围陀) are the most correct. And within these, the 'mantra' (念) is the most correct. And within these mantras, the expresser and the expressed are the most correct. And within these expressers, only this (referring to the Brahmin) is the most supreme, there is nothing above this. If the world did not have this, how would karma (行业) be performed? Because of this expresser, love and hate arise from this. Just as the Brahmin is the highest among all surnames, so too is this expression. This reasoning is not correct. Why is that? What is that Brahmin's surname and life? And how does he know? What is his karma? How did he obtain this name of Brahmin? And how can this Veda (围陀) be called correct? What is the original cause of Indra (帝释天)? And what is an animal (傍生)? How does an animal arise in the Moon Heaven (月天)? What is the original cause of the Sun Heaven (日天), and how does it give rise to animals? The original causes of the Wind Heaven (风天), Fire Heaven (火天), and Water Heaven (水天), going back and forth, how can it be like this? Furthermore, those who falsely cling believe that after dying in the heavens, they are reborn in the heavens, and after dying in the human realm, they are reborn in the human realm, and so it is with animals. Those who make such statements within the Four Vedas are not of correct reasoning. What is this life? What is the reason for calling it life? The same goes for Brahmins and so on. Furthermore, you heretical Brahmins say that, as stated in the correct scriptures, Mount Bharatiya (婆啰帝山) produces seven kinds of birds and beasts. Nasara陀 (那娑啰陀) and Bieluka陵惹哩 mountain (别鹿迦陵惹哩山). All the parrots, herons, 𪆗, geese, deer, and the like that are in those mountains are born in Kuruksetra (俱噜乞晒, land of blessings) among humans. After dying there, they are born among Brahmins, understanding the theories of the Four Vedas. These birds, beasts, deer, geese, and mandarin ducks are born among humans. Is the life of those beasts Brahmin or non-Brahmin? Why is that? If those lives are, then they are not beasts. If those lives are not, then they are born among Brahmins. This statement is unreasonable. Brahmins cling. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

。四围陀论是万法本。亦号真如。非于余姓而许受食。   于首陀处数数受利。正违自宗。何名净行。由此亦非真婆罗门。   又四围陀婆罗门法。妄执正命及于正法婆罗门种。亦复非理。云何正法。种姓间杂。何名最上。所以者何。非最间杂。其事云何。   且如父名那洛乞叉。其子乃名兵誐罗仙。又如父名阿誐悉帝。其子亦名阿誐悉帝(二合)。又如父名布沙野(二合)左。其子乃名娇尸迦。又如其父名俱舍子。其子名为僧萨多(二合)誐。又如父名迦痴那。其子亦名迦痴那。又如父名婆左虞腊么(二合)。其子乃名娇怛么。又如父名迦罗舍(引)。其子乃名讷噜(二合)拏左哩野(二合)。又如父名底逸底哩。其子乃名底帝哩𠯆(尼所引)迦。又如父名捺啰(二合)𤚥。子名仙觉。又如母名野鹿采鱼人生。其子乃名嚩野(二合)僧子觉乞晒(二合引)。父首陀姓其子乃名尾湿(二合)弥怛览(二合)。母是毡陀罗。子名嚩瑟姹(二合)。母名乌哩嚩(二合)尸。天所生女非婆罗门。如上所说。何因固执言婆罗门人间最上。又如所执戌噜(二合)底经正亦非理。是故所有婆罗门法。道理亦非。   又如所执。婆罗门法。新肉紫矿及盐等物。戌陀应受。汝婆罗门。勿宜受之今何不尔。   又如 现代汉语译本:四围陀(Caturveda,吠陀经)的理论是万法的根本,也称为真如(Tathata,事物的真实本性)。不应该允许其他种姓的人接受食物。 在首陀(Sudra,印度教种姓制度中的最低等级)那里多次接受供养,这完全违背了你们自己的宗旨。这怎么能叫做‘净行’呢?因此,你们也不是真正的婆罗门(Brahmana,印度教种姓制度中的最高等级)。 此外,四围陀婆罗门的法则,妄自执着于正命(Samyag-ajiva,八正道之一,正确的谋生方式)以及正法(Saddharma,真正的佛法)婆罗门种姓,这也是不合理的。如果种姓之间混杂,怎么能说是最上的呢?为什么这么说呢?如果不是最纯粹的,那又是什么情况呢? 例如,父亲的名字叫那洛乞叉(Naloraksa),他的儿子却名叫兵誐罗仙(Pingala)。又如父亲名叫阿誐悉帝(Agastya),他的儿子也名叫阿誐悉帝。又如父亲名叫布沙野左(Pusyaja),他的儿子却名叫娇尸迦(Kausika)。又如父亲名叫俱舍子(Kusika),他的儿子名叫僧萨多誐(Samsadaga)。又如父亲名叫迦痴那(Kacina),他的儿子也名叫迦痴那。又如父亲名叫婆左虞腊么(Vajragaurama),他的儿子却名叫娇怛么(Gautama)。又如父亲名叫迦罗舍(Kalasa),他的儿子却名叫讷噜拏左哩野(Nurunacarya)。又如父亲名叫底逸底哩(Tittiri),他的儿子名叫底帝哩𠯆迦(Tittirika)。又如父亲名叫捺啰𤚥(Nradama),儿子名叫仙觉(Sanjaya)。又如母亲名叫野鹿采鱼人生,他的儿子名叫嚩野僧子觉乞晒(Vayasamjayaksa)。父亲是首陀种姓,他的儿子却名叫尾湿弥怛览(Visvamitra)。母亲是旃陀罗(Candala,贱民),儿子名叫嚩瑟姹(Vasista)。母亲名叫乌哩嚩尸(Urvasi),是天所生的女子,不是婆罗门。如上所说,为什么还要固执地说婆罗门是人间最上的呢?又如你们所执着的戌噜底(Sruti,吠陀经)是正确的,这也是不合理的。因此,所有婆罗门的法则,在道理上都是不成立的。 又如你们所执着的婆罗门法则,认为新鲜的肉、紫矿以及盐等物品,首陀可以接受,而你们婆罗门不应该接受,现在为什么又接受了呢? 又如...

English version: The theory of the Caturveda (the four Vedas) is the root of all dharmas, also known as Tathata (the true nature of things). It is not permissible for those of other castes to receive food. Repeatedly accepting offerings from the Sudras (the lowest rank in the Hindu caste system) is a complete contradiction of your own tenets. How can this be called 'pure conduct'? Therefore, you are not true Brahmanas (the highest rank in the Hindu caste system). Furthermore, the laws of the Caturveda Brahmanas, clinging falsely to right livelihood (Samyag-ajiva, one of the Eightfold Path, the correct way to earn a living) and the righteous Dharma (Saddharma, the true Buddha's teaching) of the Brahmana caste, are also unreasonable. If castes are mixed, how can it be said to be the highest? Why is this so? If it is not the purest, then what is the situation? For example, the father's name is Naloraksa, but his son is named Pingala. Also, the father is named Agastya, and his son is also named Agastya. Also, the father is named Pusyaja, but his son is named Kausika. Also, the father is named Kusika, and his son is named Samsadaga. Also, the father is named Kacina, and his son is also named Kacina. Also, the father is named Vajragaurama, but his son is named Gautama. Also, the father is named Kalasa, but his son is named Nurunacarya. Also, the father is named Tittiri, and his son is named Tittirika. Also, the father is named Nradama, and the son is named Sanjaya. Also, the mother is named Yarukacai, born from a fish, and her son is named Vayasamjayaksa. The father is of the Sudra caste, but his son is named Visvamitra. The mother is a Candala (outcaste), and the son is named Vasista. The mother is named Urvasi, a woman born of the heavens, not a Brahmana. As stated above, why do you stubbornly insist that Brahmanas are the highest among humans? Furthermore, your insistence that the Sruti (the Vedas) is correct is also unreasonable. Therefore, all the laws of the Brahmanas are not established in reason. Furthermore, as you adhere to the Brahmana laws, considering that fresh meat, purple ore, and salt, etc., should be accepted by Sudras, but not by you Brahmanas, why do you accept them now? Furthermore... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

彼计。乳卖婆罗门行虚空堕落非婆罗门。食肉堕空非理亦尔。是故应知。买卖乳肉婆罗门。非戌陀之法。由此当知。一切非食肉乳等人及非买卖。皆总得名婆罗门邪。是故应知。乳肉计卖非婆罗门。妄执非法。   又世间姓妄执最上。亦非正法。如刹帝利。毗舍戌达各执最上。应皆总名婆罗门姓。   又执苦身名婆罗门。诸有苦身一切总应名婆罗门。   又彼妄执杀婆罗门而获罪重。害彼眷属获罪亦尔。复执彼从净天口生。刹帝利姓彼天身上。毗舍首陀身足而生。若杀于彼故获重罪。   彼执非理。所以者何。应杀余姓其罪非有。害余眷属非有亦然。由是妄执不契正理。   又彼所执。破坏彼行。破坏檀行。及彼受施。若智若身皆获重罪。   此不应然。所以者何。身智之中何者得名号婆罗门。应首陀等皆有身智。悉应得名婆罗门邪。   又彼妄执。解四围陀及弥𤚥婆。并僧佉论尾世史迦。乃至诸论皆悉了达。名婆罗门。   此理亦非。如首陀等。亦解彼论晓了彼义。应皆得名婆罗门邪。   若修苦行名婆罗门。彼首陀等亦能行之。应亦得名婆罗门邪。   解诸术数名婆罗门。彼采鱼人及诸乐人。了解术数种种差别。亦可得名婆罗门邪。   是故应知。行非婆罗门。业 现代汉语译本 他们认为,以卖牛奶为生的婆罗门(Brahman)会从空中坠落,就不是婆罗门了。吃肉会堕落,这种说法也是不合理的。因此,应该明白,买卖牛奶和肉类的婆罗门,并非是低种姓(戌陀,Sudra)的行为。由此可知,难道所有不吃肉、不卖牛奶的人,都可以被总称为婆罗门吗?所以应该明白,以牛奶和肉类进行交易并非婆罗门的行为,这是一种错误的执着,不符合佛法。 此外,世俗之人错误地认为自己的姓氏最高贵,这也是不符合正法的。例如,刹帝利(Kshatriya)、毗舍(Vaishya)、戌陀(Sudra)各自认为自己的姓氏最高贵,难道他们都可以被总称为婆罗门姓吗? 还有人认为,修苦行就是婆罗门。如果这样,所有修苦行的人都应该被称为婆罗门了。 他们还错误地认为,杀害婆罗门会获得极重的罪业,伤害他们的眷属也会获得同样的罪业。他们还认为婆罗门是从清净的天人口中出生的,刹帝利姓是从天人的身上出生的,毗舍和戌陀是从天人的身体和脚上出生的。如果杀害他们,就会获得极重的罪业。 他们的这种看法是不合理的。为什么呢?如果杀害其他姓氏的人就没有罪吗?伤害其他姓氏的眷属就没有罪吗?由此可见,这种错误的执着是不符合正理的。 还有人认为,破坏婆罗门的修行,破坏他们的布施行为,以及破坏他们接受布施的行为,无论是智力还是身体上的破坏,都会获得极重的罪业。 这种说法是不应该成立的。为什么呢?身体和智力之中,哪一个可以被称为婆罗门呢?如果戌陀等人也有身体和智力,难道他们都可以被称为婆罗门吗? 还有人错误地认为,通晓四吠陀(四围陀,four Vedas)、弥曼差(弥𤚥婆,Mimamsa)、僧佉论(Samkhya)和胜论(尾世史迦,Vaisheshika),乃至所有论典的人,就可以被称为婆罗门。 这种说法也是不合理的。如果戌陀等人也通晓这些论典,明白其中的含义,难道他们都可以被称为婆罗门吗? 如果修苦行就可以被称为婆罗门,那么戌陀等人也能修苦行,难道他们也可以被称为婆罗门吗? 如果懂得各种术数就可以被称为婆罗门,那么那些捕鱼的人和乐师,他们也懂得各种不同的术数,难道他们也可以被称为婆罗门吗? 因此,应该明白,行为本身并不能决定是否是婆罗门,业力才是关键。
