English version Shramana Buddha's disciples 'Let's assemble in harmony, and not harbor long-standing grudges.' 'There is a great assembly of bhikkhus (Buddhist monks), numbering in the hundreds of thousands.' 'Desiring to learn the Dharma, they come together on the fifteenth day.' 'There is a great assembly of bhikkhus (Buddhist monks), though numbering in the hundreds of thousands,' 'My learning is profound and clear, but you are unable to understand it.' 'If there is a bhikkhu (Buddhist monk) who can understand and realize the Dharma,' 'Then he can explain the beginning and the end; I study to know the scriptures.' 'At that time, there was a bhikkhu (Buddhist monk) whose learning was universally understood,' 'Virtuous, named Susena, he roared like a lion.' 'Immediately he rose from his seat, folded his hands, and stood upright.' 'Bowing to the feet of the elders, he then roared like a lion.' 'I harbor no doubts, my heart is without hesitation.' 'The precepts and scriptures I have learned, I now set forth for understanding.' 'I also have no difficulties, my mind neither advances nor retreats.' 'What I have learned before, I have no doubts about the law.' 'Fluent in the scriptures, clear in the meaning of the Dharma.' 'My learning is like this; may all the wise ones uphold it.' 'You do not understand the scriptures, nor do you comprehend the law.' 'How can you, before the venerable ones, praise yourself so much?' 'The venerable teacher has an evil disciple, with a fierce nature and harboring poison,' 'His name is Asi, and he immediately harmed Susena.' 'At that time, there was a great spirit who believed in the Buddha's Dharma,' 'Holding a vajra (thunderbolt) in his hand, he struck and killed Asi.' 'At that time, the earth shook six times.' 'The four directions resounded naturally, and non-humans struck spiritual drums.' 'At that time, in the four directions, there were four great smokes,' 'And also four great fires, falling from above on all sides.' 'In that age, the world was in darkness.' 'From then on, without return, the people were submerged in ignorance.' 'The common people were countless, grieving and filled with sorrow.' 'Today is the last age, the Buddha's true Dharma is not yet exhausted.' 'I have seen the Buddha's spirits, believing in the Dharma,' 'Throwing themselves to the ground, crying and unable to bear it.' 'The bhikkhus (Buddhist monks) encountered evil, like losing both parents.' 'Today is the last age, the Buddha's true Dharma is about to perish.' 'From today'

以往 无复说经典 法律及禁戒 当何从闻听 诸天树木鬼 旷野居神明 悲感心忧恼 宛转不自宁 法灯为已没 正典已毁灭 今世最崩颓 法鼓不复鸣 诸魔设欢喜 聚会相庆贺 举手而赞言 今是佛末世 却后将来世 当有是患难 益当加精进 勉力求度脱 譬如有贾客 失时心怀恼 故宜加慕属 无得复后悔 闻时道法兴 经典普流布 说法者常存 勤心修佛教 今日四辈人 展转相恭敬 闻佛法尚在 夙宵加精进 身体自康强 未遭老病死 以故当殷勤 念后大危惧 及时诸国安 无有众患难 丰熟乞易得 奉修佛教禁 沙门解罗刹 闻是法教戒 前稽首作礼 耆年迦旃子 惟吾身战栗 毛竖心为寒 失志不知法 不复识方面 今我闻此言 心生大恐惧 将来世见此 安能心不碎 尊者迦旃子 兴此悲哀已 则为诸弟子 说正法未尽 三百岁多解脱 三百岁闻戒定 三百岁修佛寺 入千年青苑说 说比丘乐无乐 习独处床席居 在于彼行无方 当降伏诸爱欲 佛使比丘迦旃延说法没尽偈百二十章 现代汉语译本 以往的事情,不必再提经典的事情了。 (如果)法律以及禁戒,应当从何处听闻呢? 诸天(devas),树木之神,鬼(ghosts),旷野居住的神明(spirits) 悲伤、感叹、内心忧愁烦恼,辗转反侧不能自安。 佛法的灯火已经熄灭,正统的经典已经毁灭。 现今的世道最为崩坏颓废,佛法的鼓声不再鸣响。 众魔(maras)设置欢喜的场面,聚会在一起互相庆贺。 举起手来赞叹说,现在是佛法的末世了。 在将来的世道,应当有这样的患难。 更加应当增加精进,勉力寻求度脱。 譬如有一个商人(merchant),错过时机内心怀有恼恨。 所以应该更加爱慕归属(佛法),不要再后悔。 听闻佛法之时,道法兴盛,经典普遍流布。 说法的人常常存在,勤奋用心修习佛教。 今日的出家四众弟子(bhikshus, bhikshunis, upasakas, upasikas),辗转互相恭敬。 听闻佛法尚且存在,早晚更加精进。 身体自然康健强壮,尚未遭遇衰老疾病死亡。 因此应当殷勤,念及以后的巨大危惧。 及时诸国安宁,没有各种患难。 丰收容易获得,奉行修习佛教的戒律。 沙门(shramana)解罗刹(rakshasa),听闻这些佛法的教诲和戒律。 上前稽首作礼,年老的迦旃延(Katyayana)。 我自身战栗,毛发竖立内心寒冷。 丧失意志不知道佛法,不再认识方向。 现在我听闻这些话,内心产生巨大的恐惧。 将来的世道见到这些,怎么能够内心不破碎? 尊者迦旃延(Katyayana),兴起这些悲哀之后。 就为众弟子,宣说正法还没有说完。 三百年多数人解脱,三百年听闻戒律禅定。 三百年修建佛寺,进入千年青苑宣说。 宣说比丘(bhikshu)的快乐与不快乐,习惯独自居住在床席之上。 在那里行为没有方向,应当降伏各种爱欲。 佛使比丘迦旃延(Katyayana)说法没尽偈百二十章

English version In the past, there is no need to speak of the scriptures anymore. From where shall we hear the laws and precepts? The devas (gods), the spirits of trees, the ghosts, the spirits dwelling in the wilderness, Are filled with sorrow, lamentation, worry, and vexation, tossing and turning, unable to find peace. The lamp of the Dharma has been extinguished, the orthodox scriptures have been destroyed. The present age is most collapsed and decadent, the drum of the Dharma no longer sounds. The maras (demons) set up scenes of joy, gathering together to congratulate each other. Raising their hands, they praise and say, 'Now is the end of the Dharma age.' In the future age, there shall be such calamities. One should increase diligence and strive to seek liberation. It is like a merchant who misses the opportunity and harbors resentment in his heart. Therefore, one should cherish and belong to (the Dharma), and not regret it again. When the Dharma is heard, the Way flourishes, and the scriptures are widely spread. Those who preach the Dharma are always present, diligently practicing Buddhism. Today, the fourfold assembly of disciples (bhikshus, bhikshunis, upasakas, upasikas) mutually respect each other. Hearing that the Dharma still exists, they increase their diligence day and night. The body is naturally healthy and strong, not yet encountering old age, sickness, and death. Therefore, one should be diligent and mindful of the great dangers to come. In time, all countries will be peaceful, without various calamities. Harvests will be abundant and easy to obtain, and the precepts of Buddhism will be practiced. The shramana (ascetic) understands the rakshasa (demon), hearing these teachings and precepts of the Buddha. He steps forward, bows, and pays homage to the aged Katyayana (Katyayana). 'My body trembles, my hair stands on end, and my heart is cold. I have lost my will and do not know the Dharma, and I no longer recognize directions. Now that I hear these words, great fear arises in my heart. Seeing these things in the future age, how can my heart not be broken?' The venerable Katyayana (Katyayana), after expressing this sorrow, Then, for the disciples, he speaks of the Dharma that has not yet been exhausted. For three hundred years, many will be liberated; for three hundred years, they will hear of precepts and meditation. For three hundred years, they will build Buddhist temples, entering the Green Garden for a thousand years to preach. Preaching the joy and sorrow of the bhikshu (monk), accustomed to dwelling alone on the bed and mat. There, actions have no direction; one should subdue all desires. The Buddha caused the bhikshu Katyayana (Katyayana) to preach the inexhaustible verses, one hundred and twenty chapters. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
