Sutra of Varied Parables (雜譬喻經)


(四)

(4)

昔有賢者奉法精進,得病奄亡,妻子嘷戀無聊有生,火葬收骨埋去既訖,廢忘經道香燈不設,家財饒富,月旦晦朔烹殺饌餟,上塚集會,相哭哀摧悲悼斷絕。亡者戒德終乃昇天,天眼遙見,愍其笑之愚癡之至,便作小兒於邊牧牛。牛便卒死,兒便嘷哭,刈草著前曉喻令食,復打呼起,對泣自搏如此終日。眾人怪笑,共往呵問:「汝誰家子?牛死當歸語家,嘷哭何益?牛死豈知乎?」曰:「我不愚也。牛死尚在,猶可有望;汝父早死,設百種食共向嘷哭,焦骨何知?」眾聞霍解。曰:「吾本汝父,蒙佛生天,故來釋卿。」因還復天身,「欲得如我,加進道供。」已忽不現。妻子內外便還,精進戒德、布施拯濟,一切不復憂愁,皆得道迹同時生天。
