Summary
s.1Victory of the Ultimate Dharma presents the Buddha’s answers to questions posed by a non-Buddhist seer named Ulka concerning the origin of life, the end of the universe, and the nature of the soul. These questions are posed following a miraculous display by the Buddha, in which countless living beings are emitted from the Buddha in the form of rays of light. Although this miraculous display awes the bodhisattvas and gods who are present, Ulka is not swayed by these powers, arguing that non-Buddhist gods such as Nārāyaṇa and Maheśvara are also able to perform such feats. In answering his questions, the Buddha articulates core teachings of Buddhism such as impermanence, karma, and emptiness.
s.1《第一義法勝經》呈現了佛陀對一位名叫烏爾迦的非佛教仙人提出的問題的回答。烏爾迦的提問涉及生命的起源、宇宙的終結和靈魂的本質。這些問題是在佛陀進行一次神奇展示之後提出的,在這次展示中,無數有情以光線的形式從佛陀身上發出。儘管這一神奇展示令在場的菩薩和天神感到敬畏,但烏爾迦並未被這些神通所動搖,他辯稱那羅延和大自在天等非佛教的天神也能夠執行類似的壯舉。在回答他的問題時,佛陀闡述了佛教的核心教法,如無常、業和空性。
