English version Free from sorrow and worry, like a bird escaping a net, soaring far away. This is called liberation. The king, hearing these words, said to Pindola (one of the Sixteen Arhats): 'Now, my power can subdue all countries. My majesty and glory shine like the midday sun. I wear a heavenly crown, adorned with splendid garments, and attended by numerous beautiful women, like the god Indra (the lord of gods in Buddhism). Do you, living alone, not envy me?' The Venerable replied, 'I have no envy.' The king asked again, 'Why do you not envy me?' The Venerable replied, 'The mud I wish to remove has already dried. All bonds are now released. I do not even envy the beautiful heavenly women of Indra (Śakra), let alone your vulgar human existence. Who, with wisdom, having escaped the bonds of Mara (demon), crossed the shore of birth and death, attained the pure eye of wisdom, and destroyed the darkness of ignorance, would envy a king? Would a sighted person envy a blind person? Would a strong person envy a sick person? Would an innocent person envy a prisoner? Would a wealthy person envy a poor person? Would a noble person envy a servant? Would a wise person envy a fool? Would a brave and strong person envy a weakling?' Hearing these words, the king felt remorse and said, 'Why are your analogies so painful and severe? Would I rather be so troubled and weakened?' The Venerable replied, 'Your Majesty lacks the eye of wisdom, is afflicted by afflictions, and is drowned in the swift currents of the four attachments. You have lost your vigor and diligence. Like a foolish infant, you do not recognize the true meaning and are sinking in the sea of suffering. This is the state of Your Majesty. You cherish rare and wonderful thoughts about the five desires, but such thoughts truly violate pure conduct.' The king asked again, 'What faults are there that you say violate pure conduct?' The Venerable replied, 'These five desires are the root of all suffering, harming all beings' roots of goodness, like hail damaging seedlings. They torment beings more than poisonous snakes, and like blazing fire, they can burn away merit. They are like wild horses, deceiving ordinary people, and like illusions, confusing the confused. Desires feign kindness, surpassing even enemies. Desires are like an old ox mired in mud, desires are like a great net entangling the three realms, desires are like a sword's edge, difficult to tread. Desires can bind and kill beings. All faults arise from desires.' Just like in ancient times, there was... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then he spoke the following verse: 'Although the king's position is noble and dignified, succession and decline do not stop, Swift and quick like lightning, in an instant it returns to annihilation. The king's position is extremely rich and comfortable, foolish people greedily love it, When the time of decay and death arrives, the pain is more severe than **. The king resides in a high position, his fame fills the four directions, His appearance is upright and very lovely, he adorns himself with various ornaments, Like a person nearing death, wearing flower garlands and necklaces, The remaining lifespan is not much, the king's position is also so short. The king is like a crow, always harboring various terrors, Walking, standing, sitting, and lying down, even at all times, Towards those who are close and those who are distant, there is always suspicion in the heart.

当知国土犹如罗网。亦如罥弶。如深淤泥。亦如洄波。又如海浪。如林被烧。亦如危岸。犹如地狱。何有智者。当乐贪着。如是大苦。何有智者。当生乐想。如是大王。呜呼怪哉。被欺乃尔。被诳乃尔犹如空拳诳于小儿。速疾不停。犹如幻化。五欲欺诳。亦复如是。犹如猿猴在高山顶见云弥布以为坚实。谓为是地便以身投堕百丈岩。丧其身命。一切碎灭。亦如野干见甄叔迦树。其果似肉。见落地时。 现代汉语译本 那些不快乐的事情： 譬如拿一块肉，放在四通八达的十字路口。 狐狸、狼、乌鸦、老鹰等，都争先恐后地来抢夺食物。 王位也像这样，众人共同争夺。 鸟兽用嘴和爪子，抓挠争斗。 君王用刀和矛，互相残害争夺荣耀的地位。 也像那些鸟兽一样，愚痴没有差别。 我宁愿吃灰土，草菜来维持生存。 这身体就像痈疮，最终会溃烂。 为什么为了它，造作各种恶业呢？ 就像吃钦婆果（一种味道好的果实），香味俱全。 等到果实消化时，身体全部腐烂。 王位就像那果实，失去后产生痛苦烦恼。 譬如某个地方，发生灾疫流行疾病。 有智慧的贤人，应该迅速远离。 如果不远离，就像逆风拿着火炬。 不舍弃必定会烧到自己，就像口渴喝咸水。 没有满足的时候，就像十个头的罗刹（恶鬼）。 城郭和眷属，为了欲望的缘故。 毁灭殆尽没有剩余，又如寄越王（人名）。 兄弟有一百人，为了欲望的缘故。 也都全部败亡，日种槃赵王（人名）。 以及提头赖吒（人名），像这些君王等。 都因为欲望而被毁灭。 应当知道国土就像罗网，也像陷阱。 像深深的淤泥，也像回旋的波浪，又像海浪，像森林被烧，也像危险的岸边，就像地狱。哪里有智者，会贪恋执着？像这样的大苦，哪里有智者，会产生快乐的想法？像这样的大王，唉，真是奇怪啊！被欺骗到这种程度，被诓骗到这种程度，就像用空拳欺骗小孩子。迅速不停留，就像幻化。五欲的欺骗，也是这样。就像猿猴在高山顶上，看见云雾弥漫，以为是坚实的地面，认为是陆地就纵身跳下百丈悬崖，丧失性命，一切粉碎。也像野干（一种动物）看见甄叔迦树（一种树），它的果实像肉，看见掉在地上时。

English version What those are not happy about: For example, taking a piece of meat and placing it at the head of a four-way intersection. Foxes, wolves, crows, eagles, and others compete to snatch the food. The throne is also like this, with everyone vying for it. Birds and beasts use their beaks and claws to scratch and fight. Kings use swords and spears to harm each other and compete for glorious positions. They are just like those birds and beasts, foolish and no different. I would rather eat ashes and soil, and vegetables to sustain myself. This body is like a festering sore, which will eventually ulcerate. Why, for its sake, create all kinds of evil deeds? It's like eating a chimba fruit (a kind of good-tasting fruit), with all its fragrance and flavor. When the fruit is digested, the body is completely rotten. The throne is like that fruit, losing it brings pain and suffering. For example, in a certain place, there is a disaster and epidemic diseases are prevalent. Wise and virtuous people should quickly stay away. If you don't stay away, it's like holding a torch against the wind. Not letting go will surely burn yourself, like drinking saltwater when thirsty. There is no time to be satisfied, like a ten-headed Rakshasa (demon). City walls and family members, for the sake of desire. Destroyed and nothing remains, like King Jiyue (person's name). There are a hundred brothers, for the sake of desire. They are all defeated and destroyed, King Rizhong Pan Zhao (person's name). And Titu Lai Zha (person's name), like these kings and others. All are destroyed by desire. It should be known that the country is like a net, also like a trap. Like deep mud, also like swirling waves, also like sea waves, like a forest being burned, also like a dangerous shore, like hell. Where is the wise man, who would be greedy and attached? Like such great suffering, where is the wise man, who would have happy thoughts? Like such a great king, alas, how strange! Being deceived to this extent, being tricked to this extent, like deceiving a child with an empty fist. Quickly and without stopping, like illusion. The deception of the five desires is also like this. It's like a monkey on the top of a high mountain, seeing the clouds and mist, thinking it is solid ground, thinking it is land, it jumps off a hundred-foot cliff, losing its life, everything is shattered. It's also like a jackal (a kind of animal) seeing a Zhenshujia tree (a kind of tree), its fruit is like meat, seeing it fall to the ground. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
