佛說摩尼羅亶經
The Sutra of Maniratna Spoken by the Buddha
東晉天竺三藏竺曇無蘭譯
Translated by Zhu Tanwulan, Tripitaka Master from India during the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
聞如是：
Thus have I heard:
一時佛在舍衛國祇樹給孤獨園，時與摩訶比丘僧說摩尼羅亶經。佛問阿難言：「天下人民得不安隱，用何等故？用天下萬民多有疾病者、病痛者，用何等故？用出母腹痛、用傷心痛、頭痛目眩不能飲食，魔皆所為。」今諸比丘大懼怖如是，便前白佛言：「痛從何所來、去至何所，人民大愁憂不樂？」佛會諸比丘、摩訶迦葉惟、阿那律、離越、摩訶目犍連、舍利弗、阿難、因持羅。
Once the Buddha was staying in the Jeta Grove of Anathapindika's Park in the country of Shravasti. At that time, he was teaching the Maniratna Sutra to the great assembly of monks. The Buddha asked Ananda, "Why do the people of the world fail to find peace and security? Why is it that so many among the countless people suffer from illness and pain? Why do mothers endure birth pains, why do hearts ache, heads throb, eyes grow dizzy, and people lose their appetite? All these are the work of demons." Hearing this, the monks were greatly alarmed and fearful. They approached the Buddha and asked, "Where does this pain come from, and where does it go? Why are people so deeply troubled and unhappy?" The Buddha then gathered the monks—Mahakashyapa, Aniruddha, Revata, Mahamaudgalyayana, Shariputra, Ananda, and Indra—together.
佛便說摩尼羅亶經。佛便舉諸佛名字，第一惟衛佛、第二式佛、第三隨葉佛、第四拘留秦佛、第五拘那含牟尼佛、第六迦葉佛、第七釋迦文佛，今是經皆從諸佛口中出。第一式叉羅、第二揵陀羅、第三揵頭羅、第四彌佉羅、第五乾朱羅、第六摩油羅、第七阿須輪、第八隨沙門、第九隨孫、第十𮥝提，都盧大小一切人民有得疾病者，今佛令諸比丘僧、比丘尼、優婆塞、優婆夷皆當說是經。有國中鬼、有山中鬼、有林中鬼、有草暮鬼、有塚間鬼、有塚中鬼、有地上鬼、有水中鬼、有水邊鬼、有火中鬼、有火邊鬼、有北斗鬼、有虛空中鬼、有市井鬼、有死人鬼、有生人鬼、有飢餓鬼、有道外鬼、有道中鬼、有堂外鬼、有堂中鬼、有身中鬼、有身外鬼、有飯食鬼、有臥時鬼、今佛言有赤色鬼、有黑色鬼、有長鬼、有短鬼、有大鬼、有小鬼、有中適鬼、有白色鬼、有黃色鬼、有青色鬼、有黑色鬼、有夢寤鬼、有朝起鬼、有步行鬼、有飛行鬼、有問人魂魄鬼、有生人鬼、有死人鬼。
The Buddha then taught the Sutra of Maniratna. The Buddha then proclaimed the names of the Buddhas: first, Vipaśyin Buddha; second, Śikhin Buddha; third, Viśvabhū Buddha; fourth, Krakucchanda Buddha; fifth, Kanakamuni Buddha; sixth, Kāśyapa Buddha; seventh, Śākyamuni Buddha. This sutra now flows from the mouths of all these Buddhas.
First, Śikṣārā; second, Gandhārā; third, Gandūrā; fourth, Mikhārā; fifth, Kañjurā; sixth, Mayūrā; seventh, Asura; eighth, Suśramaṇa; ninth, Suśun; tenth, Kunti—all people, great and small, who suffer from illness—now the Buddha commands all bhikkhus, bhikkhunīs, upāsakas, and upāsikās to recite this sutra.
There are ghosts of the kingdom, ghosts of the mountains, ghosts of the forests, ghosts of the twilight grass, ghosts among the tombs, ghosts within the tombs, ghosts upon the earth, ghosts in the water, ghosts by the water's edge, ghosts in the fire, ghosts by the fire, ghosts of the Northern Dipper, ghosts of the empty sky, ghosts of the marketplaces, ghosts of the dead, ghosts of the living, hungry ghosts, ghosts outside the path, ghosts upon the path, ghosts outside the hall, ghosts within the hall, ghosts within the body, ghosts outside the body, ghosts of food and drink, ghosts of the sleeping hour.
Now the Buddha says there are red ghosts, black ghosts, tall ghosts, short ghosts, large ghosts, small ghosts, medium-sized ghosts, white ghosts, yellow ghosts, blue ghosts, black ghosts, ghosts of dreams and waking, ghosts of the morning rise, ghosts that walk, ghosts that fly, ghosts that question human souls, ghosts of the living, and ghosts of the dead.
佛言：「若有瞋恚刀杖起時，皆當念是摩尼羅亶經，諸鬼神則為破碎。」
The Buddha said, "When anger arises, and knives and staffs are raised, always recite this Mani Ratna Scripture. Then all ghosts and spirits will be shattered."
佛告諸比丘：「若有受是經者，若有病瘦，當說是經。若有頭痛目眩寒熱傷心，常當讀是摩尼羅亶經，諸鬼神則頭破作七分。
The Buddha told the monks, "If someone receives and upholds this sutra, and they become sick or weak, they should recite this sutra. If they suffer from headaches, dizziness, chills, fevers, or heartache, they should constantly read this Mani Ratna Sutra. Then all ghosts and spirits will have their heads split into seven pieces."
「若有縣官、盜賊、水火，則當讀是摩尼羅亶經，諸鬼神不得復嬈害人。今是經，諸佛口中所出。若有國中鬼，一者名深沙、二者名浮丘，是二鬼健行求人長短。若有頭痛目眩、寒熱傷心，即當舉是二鬼名字，便當說摩尼羅亶經，是諸鬼神無不破碎者。
When officials or authorities pursue you, when thieves or bandits threaten you, when fire or flood endangers you, you should recite the Mani Ratana Sutra, and no spirits or demons will be able to harm you again. This sutra comes directly from the mouths of all Buddhas.
If your country is afflicted by spirits—one called Deep Sand, and one called Floating Hill—these two ghosts move swiftly, seeking out human weaknesses. Should you suffer headaches, blurred vision, chills, fever, or heart pain, immediately call out the names of these two spirits and recite the Mani Ratana Sutra. All such ghosts and demons will be shattered without exception.
「若有青色鬼、黃色鬼、黑色鬼、高大鬼、卑小鬼、廣長鬼，一切大小諸鬼神，喜嬈天下人民者，其鬼名金曼鬼、薜荔鬼、飢餓鬼、慳貪鬼、勤苦鬼、病瘦鬼、有痛痒鬼、有思想鬼、身中鬼、身外鬼、形殘鬼、跛踺鬼、痛狂鬼、癡聾鬼、瘖瘂鬼、呻吟鬼、啼哭鬼、閑病鬼、虛耗鬼、嫉妬鬼、魍魎鬼、熒惑鬼、遊光鬼、鎮厭鬼、呪咀鬼、伏尸注鬼、癩死注鬼、官舍注鬼、軍營鬼、亭傳鬼、獄死鬼、囚死鬼、水死鬼、溺死鬼、火死鬼、燒死鬼、客死未葬鬼、市死鬼、道路死鬼、渴死鬼、餓死鬼、喝死鬼、凍死鬼、兵死鬼、血死鬼、腥死鬼、逋禱死鬼、鬪死鬼、棒死鬼、絞死鬼、自懸死鬼、自刺死鬼、怨家死鬼、強死鬼、腐皮鬼、斷人毛髮鬼、飲人血鬼、飛行鬼、騎乘鬼、駕車鬼、步行鬼、逢忤鬼、山神鬼、石神鬼、土神鬼、海邊鬼、海中鬼、橋梁鬼、溝渠鬼、道中鬼、道外鬼、胡夷鬼、羗虜鬼、樹木精魅鬼、百蟲精魅鬼、鳥獸精魅鬼、嵠谷鬼、門中鬼、門外鬼、戶中鬼、戶外鬼、井竈鬼、污池鬼、溷神鬼、方道鬼、蠱道鬼、不臣屬鬼、詐稱鬼，一切大小諸鬼神，皆不得嬈害其身。鬼神不隨我言者，頭破作七分。
If there are blue ghosts, yellow ghosts, black ghosts, tall ghosts, short ghosts, wide and long ghosts—all great and small spirits that delight in disturbing people under heaven—whose names are: Golden Basket Ghost, Hungry Ghost, Starving Ghost, Miserly Ghost, Toiling Ghost, Sick and Emaciated Ghost, Ghost of Aches and Pains, Ghost of Thoughts, Ghost in the Body, Ghost Outside the Body, Deformed Ghost, Lame Ghost, Raving Ghost, Deaf and Dull Ghost, Mute Ghost, Groaning Ghost, Weeping Ghost, Bedridden Ghost, Wasting Ghost, Jealous Ghost, Phantom Ghost, Bewildering Ghost, Wandering Light Ghost, Suppressing Ghost, Cursing Ghost, Corpse-Dwelling Ghost, Leprosy-Dwelling Ghost, Official Residence Ghost, Military Camp Ghost, Waystation Ghost, Prison Death Ghost, Jail Death Ghost, Drowning Ghost, Water Death Ghost, Fire Death Ghost, Burning Death Ghost, Unburied Traveler Ghost, Marketplace Death Ghost, Road Death Ghost, Thirst Death Ghost, Starvation Death Ghost, Choking Death Ghost, Freezing Death Ghost, Soldier Death Ghost, Blood Death Ghost, Putrid Death Ghost, Debt-Cursed Death Ghost, Fight Death Ghost, Beaten Death Ghost, Strangled Death Ghost, Hanged Death Ghost, Self-Stabbed Death Ghost, Enemy Death Ghost, Violent Death Ghost, Decaying Skin Ghost, Hair-Plucking Ghost, Blood-Drinking Ghost, Flying Ghost, Riding Ghost, Chariot Ghost, Walking Ghost, Offending Ghost, Mountain Spirit Ghost, Stone Spirit Ghost, Earth Spirit Ghost, Seashore Ghost, Sea Ghost, Bridge Ghost, Ditch Ghost, Road Ghost, Pathside Ghost, Barbarian Ghost, Tribal Ghost, Tree-Spirit Ghost, Insect-Spirit Ghost, Bird-and-Beast-Spirit Ghost, Valley Ghost, Door Ghost, Outside Door Ghost, Inner Door Ghost, Outer Wall Ghost, Well and Stove Ghost, Filthy Pool Ghost, Toilet Spirit Ghost, Crossroads Ghost, Sorcery Ghost, Unruly Ghost, Deceitful Ghost—all great and small spirits, none shall harm that person. Any spirit that does not obey my words shall have its head split into seven pieces.
「若人得病瘦者，當舉是上諸鬼神名字，呪病瘦者即得除差。是經釋迦文佛口中所出，諸鬼神聞是經，從今已後悉破解愈。」
If a person falls ill and becomes emaciated, one should recite the names of the spirits mentioned above. By chanting this咒, the sick person will immediately recover. This scripture comes from the mouth of Shakyamuni Buddha himself. Upon hearing this sutra, all spirits from now on will renounce harm and offer healing.
佛說經已，諸比丘、比丘尼、優婆塞、優婆夷，諸天、龍、鬼神、人民皆受佛恩、前為佛作禮而去。
The Buddha finished speaking this sutra. All the monks, nuns, laymen, and laywomen—as well as celestial beings, dragons, spirits, and other people—received the Buddha's blessings. They paid their respects to the Buddha and then departed.
