Becoming a Keeper of the Sūtra
成為經典的護持者
11.1The Bhagavān came to the street on which was the home of the youth Candraprabha, and soon arrived at the home of the youth Candraprabha. Once he had arrived, he sat on the seat prepared for him. The saṅgha of bodhisattvas and the saṅgha of bhikṣus also sat on the appropriate seats that had been arranged for each of them.
11.1薄伽梵來到月光青年住家所在的街道，很快就抵達了月光青年的家。到達之後，他坐在為他準備的座位上。菩薩僧伽和比丘僧伽也都坐在為各自安排的適當座位上。
11.2Then the youth Candraprabha, knowing that the Bhagavān, the saṅgha of bodhisattvas, and the saṅgha of bhikṣus were seated, [F.39.b] himself presented and served a series of great offerings: numerous excellent foods, with hundreds of flavors to savor as they chewed, licked, sucked, and drank.
11.2那時青年月光見到薄伽梵、菩薩僧伽和比丘僧伽都已就坐，自己親自獻上和供奉一系列殊勝的大供養：眾多美妙的食物，有著數百種美味，讓人們咀嚼、舔舐、吸吮和飲用時都能品嚐到。
11.3When he saw that the Bhagavān had concluded his meal, which was signaled by his setting down his alms bowl, he offered for the Bhagavān’s body two lengths of cloth of the value of a trillion silver coins, and also to each of the bodhisattvas, and he offered three dharma robes to each one in the saṅgha of bhikṣus.
11.3當月光童子看到薄伽梵放下缽，表示用餐已完畢時，他為薄伽梵的身體供養了價值一兆枚銀幣的兩匹布料，並為每位菩薩各供養，還為僧伽中的每位比丘各供養了三件法衣。
11.4Then the youth Candraprabha rose from his seat, removed his robe from one shoulder and, casting toward the Bhagavān a divine coral tree flower, he made offerings and uttered praises. Then, his palms placed together, he bowed toward the Bhagavān and praised him with these appropriate verses:
11.4於是月光青年從座位上起身，將一肩的衣服脫下，向薄伽梵拋灑神珊瑚樹的花朵，進行供養並發出讚歎。然後他合掌向薄伽梵禮拜，並用這些恰當的偈頌讚歎他：
“You are unborn and unceasing;
「您無生無滅；
Without a body, inconceivable,

11.9Thus did he praise the one unequaled Lord, and then the youth said, with a joyous mind, “Unequaled Buddha, who has an inconceivable body, you have consumed the meal. Through this may I also become a buddha like you, the god of gods!” [F.40.a]
11.9他就這樣讚歎這位無等的聖者，之後那位少年歡喜地說道：「無等的佛陀啊，您有著不可思議的身體，您已經享用了這頓飯食。願我也能藉由此功德，成為像您一樣的佛陀，成為眾神之神！」
11.10In that way, therefore, the youth Candraprabha provided divine food with a hundred flavors to the Bhagavān. He offered divine coral tree flowers to the Bhagavān, and praised him with appropriate verses.
11.10如此，月光青年就以百種風味的天食供養薄伽梵，並向薄伽梵供養天生珊瑚樹花，並以合適的偈頌讚歎了他。
11.11Now, placing his palms together in homage toward the Bhagavān, in his mind he addressed him with these verses:

What is that one quality? Young man, it is when the bodhisattva mahāsattvas know the nature of all phenomena.
11.24薄伽梵知曉月光青年心中的念頭，對他說：「青年，菩薩摩訶薩如果具備一種品質，就會獲得所有這些功德，並迅速證得無上正等正覺的佛果。那一種品質是什麼呢？青年，就是菩薩摩訶薩了知一切現象的本性。」
11.25“Young man, how do bodhisattva mahāsattvas know the nature of all phenomena? Young man, bodhisattva mahāsattvas know that all phenomena are nameless; they have no names. They know that all phenomena have no vocalization, they have no expression in speech, they have no letters, they have no birth, they have no cessation, they have no characteristics of cause, they have no characteristics of conditions, they are devoid of characteristics, they have the one characteristic of having no characteristics, they are devoid of attributes, they cannot be conceived of, they have no thought, and they have no mentality.”
11.25「少年，菩薩摩訶薩如何了知一切現象的本性？少年，菩薩摩訶薩了知一切現象都是無名的，沒有名稱。他們了知一切現象沒有言說，沒有語言的表達，沒有文字，沒有生起，沒有消滅，沒有因的特徵，沒有條件的特徵，遠離所有特徵，具有無特徵這唯一的特徵，遠離所有相狀，不能被心識所把握，沒有念，沒有心。」
