The Translation
[F.251.a]
1.1Homage to all buddhas and bodhisattvas!
1.1敬禮一切佛陀和菩薩！
1.2Thus did I hear at one time. The Blessed One was residing in Rājagṛha at Vulture Peak Mountain, together with a great saṅgha of monks and a great many bodhisattva great beings.
1.2我聽說過是這樣的。當時世尊住在王舍城靈鷲山，和一大群比丘僧團以及許多菩薩大士在一起。
1.3At that time, the Blessed One said to the [F.251.b] bodhisattva Pure Intellect, “Pure Intellect, the thus-gone ones are pure because their discipline is pure. Pure Intellect, the thus-gone ones are pure because their absorption, patience, and beneficence are pure. Pure Intellect, the thus-gone ones are pure because their love is pure. Pure Intellect, the thus-gone ones are pure because their compassion is pure. Pure Intellect, the thus-gone ones are pure because their joy and equanimity are pure. Pure Intellect, the thus-gone ones are pure because their liberation and their liberated wisdom are pure. Pure Intellect, the thus-gone ones are pure because their powers are pure. Pure Intellect, the thus-gone ones are pure because their fearlessness, buddha qualities, and omniscient wisdom are pure.
1.3那個時候，世尊對菩薩純慧說：「純慧，如來因為戒律清淨所以清淨。純慧，如來因為禪定、忍辱和慈悲清淨所以清淨。純慧，如來因為慈愛清淨所以清淨。純慧，如來因為悲心清淨所以清淨。純慧，如來因為喜心和捨心清淨所以清淨。純慧，如來因為解脫和解脫智慧清淨所以清淨。純慧，如來因為神通力清淨所以清淨。純慧，如來因為無畏、佛陀特質和全知智慧清淨所以清淨。」
1.4“Pure Intellect, this being so, the size of the mass of merit generated by someone who honors the pure thus-gone ones with flowers, garlands, perfumes, parasols, banners, flags, music, and ointments cannot be fathomed. Except for the final passing into nirvāṇa through any of the three vehicles, this heap of merit can never be depleted, even in the future. Why is that so? Pure Intellect, just as the thus-gone ones are immeasurable in terms of all their buddha qualities, the offerings made to the thus-gone ones are immeasurable, endless, [F.252.a] inconceivable, incomparable, unfathomable, incalculable, boundless, and inexpressible.
1.4「純慧菩薩，由於這樣，有人以花、花環、香、傘蓋、幡、旗、音樂和膏油供養清淨的如來，他所生起的福德之量無法測度。除非藉由三乘中的任何一乘般涅槃，否則這堆積的福德即使在未來也永遠不會耗盡。為什麼呢？純慧菩薩，就像如來在一切佛質上是不可測量的，對如來的供養也是不可測量的、無盡的、難以思議的、無與倫比的、深不可測的、難以計算的、無邊的，且無法表達的。」
1.5“Pure Intellect, consider someone who honors, respects, venerates, worships, and reveres the thus-gone ones who live, thrive, and are well today. Then, consider someone who, in the future, during the final five-hundred-year period, honors, respects, venerates, worships, reveres, and holds dear a relic belonging to a thus-gone one who has passed into parinirvāṇa, even if it is as small as a mustard seed. Giving rise to the mind set on awakening, that person will pay homage to, prostrate to, honor, respect, venerate, worship, revere, supplicate, praise, and circumambulate this relic. Both of these persons will gain five benefits. What are these five benefits? They will be endowed with (1) mindfulness, (2) understanding, and (3) self-respect and propriety; (4) they will quickly meet a blessed buddha; and (5) faith will be born in them upon seeing that buddha. These are the five benefits that they will gain.
1.5「純慧菩薩，你想一下，有人供養、尊敬、恭敬、禮拜、讚仰現在活著、興盛、安樂的如來。再想一下，在未來最後五百年期間，有人供養、尊敬、恭敬、禮拜、讚仰、珍惜一位已經般涅槃的如來的舍利，即使舍利像芥子那麼小。此人由菩提心而生，將會頂禮、叩拜、供養、尊敬、恭敬、禮拜、讚仰、祈禱、讚嘆、繞行這份舍利。這兩種人都將獲得五種利益。這五種利益是什麼呢？他們將會具足（一）念，（二）慧，以及（三）慚愧；（四）他們將迅速遇見應供佛陀；以及（五）見到該佛時信心將在他們心中生起。這是他們將獲得的五種利益。」
1.6“Those persons will also possess four other qualities. What are these four qualities? (1) They will uphold the teachings of the thus-gone ones, (2) they will practice in accordance with these teachings, (3) they will come near to the blessed buddhas after having practiced in that way, and (4) they will swiftly be born in a pure buddhafield. These are the four qualities.
1.6「那些人還會具備四種其他的特質。這四種特質是什麼呢？（1）他們將遵守如來的教導，（2）他們將依照這些教導修習，（3）他們依那樣修習之後，將親近世尊佛陀，（4）他們將迅速往生到清淨的佛淨土。這就是這四種特質。
1.7“Pure Intellect, if a bodhisattva fulfills four criteria, he or she will not be oppressed by Māra or any divine sons of Māra’s family. What are these four criteria? (1) Being born in a high and noble family, (2) directing one’s mind toward the blessed buddhas as soon as one is born, (3) upholding the sacred Dharma in later stages of life, and (4) always being blessed by the thus-gone ones, [F.252.b] the worthy ones, the perfect buddhas. Pure Intellect, if a bodhisattva fulfills these four criteria, they will not be oppressed by Māra or any divine sons of Māra’s family.”
1.7「純慧菩薩，如果一位菩薩具足四項條件，就不會被魔或任何魔的眷屬天神所擾亂。這四項條件是什麼呢？（1）出生在高貴的家族裡，（2）一出生就把心指向應供佛陀，（3）在人生的後期階段維護聖法，（4）經常得到如來、應供、正等覺者的加持。純慧菩薩，如果一位菩薩具足這四項條件，就不會被魔或任何魔的眷屬天神所擾亂。」

Moreover, he may arouse devotion, thinking, ‘May my body become just like the bodies of the thus-gone ones, which are adorned with the thirty-two marks of a great being!’ Pure Intellect, in that case, the size of that heap of merit will be indescribable, because it is based on unsurpassed and perfect awakening. That heap of merit cannot be exhausted by becoming a king, Śakra, Brahmā, a solitary buddha, or even a practitioner of the unsurpassed vehicle of the perfect buddhas. Why is that so? Because, Pure Intellect, such a noble son is in possession of an inconceivable heap of merit. Pure Intellect, consider the Thus-Gone One who has awakened to unsurpassed and perfect buddhahood. Whenever he is entering a city, a monastery, or a village, and whether he is walking, standing, sitting, or teaching the Dharma, all beings without exception in this great trichiliocosm—gods, nāgas, yakṣas, gandharvas, asuras, garuḍas, kinnaras, mahoragas, humans, [F.254.a] and nonhumans—will bow, salute, and prostrate in his direction. Even the trees, mountains, mines, caves, and rock shelters will do so. Just as they all behave toward the Thus-Gone One, who is endowed with all roots of virtue, so sentient beings will also bow, salute, and prostrate to such noble sons as they wander in villages, cities, towns, lands, or capitals.”
1.34「純慧菩薩，若有菩薩乘的追隨者，在見到如來的塔時，能夠生起信心，並且跪在兩膝上，向塔禮拜和頂禮。而且，他可能會激發虔誠心，想著『願我的身體就像如來的身體一樣，以三十二相來莊嚴！』純慧菩薩，在這種情況下，那一堆福德的大小是無法形容的，因為它是以無上正等覺為基礎的。那一堆福德不會因為成為國王、帝釋天、梵天、獨覺佛，甚至無上完美佛乘的修行者而被耗盡。為什麼是這樣呢？因為，純慧菩薩，這樣的貴族兒子擁有無法思議的福德堆積。純慧菩薩，請你思考那位已經覺悟到無上正等正覺的如來。無論何時他進入城市、寺院或村莊，無論他是在行走、站立、坐著，還是在講授法時，在這個三千大千世界中，所有眾生，不經例外——諸神、龍、夜叉、乾闥婆、阿修羅、金翅鳥、緊那羅、摩睺羅迦、人類和非人類——都會向他的方向鞠躬、致敬和頂禮。甚至樹木、山脈、礦山、洞穴和石窟也會如此。正如他們對具足所有善根的如來的行為一樣，眾生也會向那樣的貴族兒子鞠躬、致敬和頂禮，因為他們在村莊、城市、城鎮、土地或首都中遊歷。」
