Summary

s.1At Mount Potalaka, on an island in the ocean, the bodhisattva Lord of the World asks the Buddha what it means to successfully take full ordination as a monk. The Buddha answers that it is only by transcending various forms of dualism that one truly takes full ordination. When the bodhisattva Maitreya asks for clarification of what the Buddha has said, the Lord of the World offers a discourse on the ultimate truth. This discourse wins the Buddha’s approval, and the Buddha in turn further elaborates on the ultimate nature of phenomena.

s.1在普陀洛迦山,一個海洋中的島嶼上,菩薩世間主問佛陀,作為比丘成功具足戒意味著什麼。佛陀回答說,只有超越各種二元論,才能真正具足戒。當菩薩彌勒菩薩請求澄清佛陀所說的內容時,世間主提供了一場關於究竟真理的開示。這個開示獲得了佛陀的讚許,佛陀進而進一步闡述了現象的究竟本質。
