Buddha's Discourse on Unraveling Knots Sutra (佛說解節經)


解節經過覺觀境品第二
爾時,曇無竭菩薩白佛言:「世尊!從此娑訶世界,向東最遠極東方世界,過七十七恒河沙數世界,有世界曰善名聞,佛號廣大善聞修伽陀住處。我於一時,往彼佛所,即於彼中見一方地,有七十七千諸外道眾,以師為先聚集而坐,為欲思量諸法實相。時外道眾思惟稱量,簡擇安立諸法實相,依其所學求覓實相,無能得者。起種種執,相違鬪諍,乃至言相違害,由口刀杖,互相傷毀,便各分散。我見此已作是思惟:『希有,希有!諸佛世尊,出於世間,由佛出世,過覺觀境,甚深法相,通達覺了,皆得顯現。』」

At that time, the Bodhisattva Wudanwu said to the Buddha: "World-Honored One! From this Saha world, going east to the farthest eastern world, crossing over worlds as numerous as the sands of seventy-seven Ganges Rivers, there is a world called 'Of Good Repute.' The Buddha there is called 'The Great Well-Known One of Good Repute, the Thus-Gone One,' and that is where he dwells. On one occasion, I went to that Buddha's place, and there I saw a piece of land where seventy-seven thousand practitioners of other paths had gathered, with Shishi at the forefront, sitting together. They were trying to contemplate the true nature of all things. At that time, those practitioners deliberated, weighed, considered, and established various views about the true nature of reality. Yet, based on what they had studied, they sought this true nature but none could grasp it. They clung to different positions, argued and clashed, even verbally attacking one another and using harsh words like knives or sticks, ultimately hurting and harming each other before scattering apart. Seeing this, I thought: 'Amazing, truly amazing! The Buddhas, World-Honored Ones, appear in the world. Because a Buddha arises, the profound nature of reality, which lies beyond the reach of conceptual thought, becomes fully understood, clearly realized, and completely revealed.'"

菩薩說已,佛即告言:「如是,法上!如是實相,過覺觀境。我覺了已,為他解說,安立正教,開示顯現,令義淺易。何以故?我說真實,但是聖人自所證見;若是凡夫覺觀境界,自他可證。法上!以是義故,應知實相過於一切覺觀境界。
「復次,法上!我說真實非相行處;一切覺觀緣相行處。以是義故,應知實相過覺觀境。
「復次,法上!我說真實不可言說;一切覺觀但由言說。故知實相過覺觀境。
「復次,法上!我說真實絕於四事,謂見、聞、覺、知;一切覺觀緣四事起。
「復次,法上!我說真相離諸鬪諍;一切覺觀鬪諍境界。以是義故,應知實相過覺觀境。
「法上!譬如有人,盡一期壽恒食苦味,復能覺觀、比度、憶持蜜等甜味,無有是處。
「復次,譬如有人,恒樂欲塵,塵欲焦熱之所燒然,復能覺觀、比度、憶持不緣塵相,依內離樂,無有是處。
「復次,譬如有人,恒樂言諍,邪談話戲,復能覺觀、比度、憶持聖默然定,無有是處。
「復次,譬如有人,恒樂恒行見、聞、覺、知,復能覺觀、比度憶持絕四事處,滅離身見是般涅槃,無有是處。
「復次,法上!譬如有人,由恒蓄財,樂行征伐,復能覺觀、比度、憶持北欝單越,無有我所無所積蓄,不相鬪諍,是現法樂,無有是處。
「法上!如是諸人,在於覺觀,復能思量、比度、憶持非覺觀境,無有是處。」
佛說經竟,重說偈言:
「自證無相法, 離言絕四事,
無諍法通相, 過諸覺觀境。」
