Buddha Speaks Vimalakīrti Sutra (佛說維摩詰經)


維摩詰所說經不思議品第六

Chapter 6: The Inconceivable

於是,維摩詰問文殊師利:「仁者遊於無量無數佛國億百那術,何等佛土為一切持一切有好師子之座?」
文殊師利言:「有,族姓子!東方去此佛國度如三十六恒沙等剎,其世界名須彌幡,其佛號須彌燈王如來、至真、等正覺,今現在。其佛身八萬四千由延,佛師子座六萬八千由延。其菩薩身四萬二千由延,須彌幡國有八百四十萬師子之座。彼國如來為一切持,其師子座為一切嚴。」

Manjushri replied, "Yes, noble one. East from here, beyond as many Buddha lands as the sands of thirty-six Ganges rivers, there is a world called Sumeru Banner. Its Buddha is named Sumeru Lamp King Tathagata, the Perfectly Enlightened One, who is presently teaching there. That Buddha's body is eighty-four thousand yojanas in height, and his lion throne is sixty-eight thousand yojanas high. The bodies of the bodhisattvas there are forty-two thousand yojanas tall. In the Sumeru Banner land, there are eight million four hundred thousand lion thrones. The Tathagata of that land upholds all beings, and his lion throne is adorned for all."

於是,維摩詰則如其像三昧正受現神足,應時彼佛須彌燈王如來,遣三萬二千師子座,高廣淨好,昔所希見。一切弟子菩薩,諸天釋梵,四天王來入維摩詰舍,見其室極廣大,悉苞容三萬二千師子座,所立處不迫迮,於維耶離城無所罣礙,於佛所止及四天處無所罣礙,悉見如故,若前不減。維摩詰言:「文殊師利!就師子座!與諸菩薩上人俱坐,當自立身如彼座像。」其得神通菩薩,即自變形為四萬二千由延,坐師子座。其邊菩薩、大弟子,皆不能昇。
維摩詰言:「唯,舍利弗!就師子座。」

Shariputra, please take your seat on the lion throne.

舍利弗言:「族姓子!此座為高廣,吾不能昇。」

Shariputra said, "Noble one, this seat is too high and wide. I cannot ascend it."

維摩詰言:「賢者!為須彌燈王如來作禮,然後可坐。」於是,邊菩薩、大弟子,即為須彌燈王如來作禮,便得坐師子座。舍利弗言:「未曾有也。族姓子!如是小室,乃容受此高廣之座,於維耶離城無所罣礙,於佛所止及四天處無所罣礙,於諸國邑、天龍神宮,亦無罣礙。」

Vimalakirti said, "Noble one, you must first pay respects to Sumerulamp King Tathagata, and then you may take your seat." Thereupon, the bodhisattvas and great disciples paid homage to Sumerulamp King Tathagata and were then able to sit upon the lion thrones. Shariputra exclaimed, "How extraordinary! O noble son, that such a small room can accommodate these lofty and spacious seats, without hindrance to the city of Vaishali, without hindrance to the Buddha’s abode or the four heavenly realms, and without hindrance to all the kingdoms, cities, and palaces of gods, dragons, and spirits."

維摩詰言:「唯然,舍利弗!諸如來、諸菩薩有八不思議門。得知此門者,以須彌之高廣入芥子中,無所增減,因現儀式,使四天王與忉利天,不知誰內我著此,而異人者,見須彌入芥子,是為入不思議壃界之門也。又,舍利弗!立不思議門菩薩者,以四大海水入一毛孔,不嬈魚鼈黿鼉水性之屬,不使龍、鬼神、阿須倫、迦留羅知我何入,因喻儀式,其於眾生無所嬈害。又,舍利弗!於是三千世界,如佛所斷,以右掌排置恒沙佛國,而人不知誰安我往。又引還復故處,都不使人有往來想,因而現儀。又,舍利弗!有無量人生死奉律,立不思議門菩薩者,為奉律人現七夜為劫壽,人信知謂劫過,不知是七夜也。又,舍利弗!立不思議門菩薩者,現諸剎好以為一剎,立一切人置其右掌,順化其意,與遊諸剎,令如日現,不震一國,從是禮事十方諸佛。又令一切人從一毛孔見十方諸日月星像,十方陰冥,皆隨入門,既無所害。又使佛國所有不減,一切曠然,各得修行。又能蹶取下方恒沙等剎,舉置殊異無數佛土,若接頹坎安措地。又立不思議門菩薩者,為一切人故,如佛像色貌立以立之,如緣一覺像色貌立以立之,如弟子像色貌立以立之,或如釋如梵如轉輪王像色貌立以立之。隨十方語言音聲上中下之所願,一切以佛柔軟音響而誘立之。為出佛語無常、苦、空、非身之聲,以如事說諸佛法言出是輩聲。」
於是,耆年大迦葉,聞說菩薩不思議門,謂舍利弗言:「譬如,賢者!於凡人前現眾名香,非彼所見,則不能知,為若此也。今諸弟子聞是語者,可一時見不思議作,其誰聞此不思議門,不發無上正真道者!於此,賢者!吾等何為永絕其根,於此大乘,已如敗種。一切弟子聞是說者,當以悲泣曉喻一切三千世界,其諸菩薩可悅預喜,如是說當頂受。若曉了不思議門者,一切魔眾無如之何。」大迦葉說是語時,三萬二千天人皆發無上正真道意。
維摩詰報大迦葉言:「唯然,賢者!十方無量無央數魔魔怪,賢者!悉行恐怖。立不思議門菩薩者,常解度人。魔之所為十方無量,或從菩薩求索手足、耳鼻、頭眼、髓腦、血肉、肌體、妻子、男女、眷屬,及求國城、墟聚、財穀、金銀、明月、珠玉、珊瑚、珍寶、衣裘、飲食一切所有,皆從求索。立不思議門菩薩者,能以善權為諸菩薩方便,示現堅固其性。所以者何?菩薩者,當上及不可使凡民逼迫之也。譬如,迦葉!龍象蹴踏,非驢所堪,為若此也。其餘菩薩莫能為。菩薩忍逼猶如此,立不思議門菩薩入權慧力者也。」
