Chapter 1: Prologue
如是我聞:
Thus I have heard:
一時佛住王舍城耆闍崛山中,與大比丘眾一千三百五十人俱,皆是阿羅漢,諸漏已盡無復煩惱,身心自在,心善解脫、慧善解脫,調伏諸根,摩訶那伽所作已辦、可作已辦,捨於重擔已,到自事義,有使已盡,正智善解脫到,一切心自在。
Thus have I heard. At one time, the Buddha was staying at Vulture Peak in Rajagriha, together with a great assembly of 1,350 bhikshus. They were all Arhats—those who had extinguished all defilements with no more afflictions. Their body and mind were at ease, their minds and wisdom were well liberated, and all their senses were tamed. Like noble elephants, they had done what needed to be done, completed their tasks, laid down their heavy burdens, and attained their own true purpose. Their paths to rebirth were exhausted; by perfect wisdom, they were fully liberated. Their minds had arrived at complete freedom.
其名曰:長老阿若憍陳如(此言已知,陳如姓也)、舍利弗、大目揵連(此言羅茯根,其父好噉此物因以為名)、摩訶迦葉、離婆多(此言常作聲)、須婆吼(此言善脾)、阿難陀(此言大歡喜),如是等一千三百五十阿羅漢。
Their names are: the elder Ajnata Kaundinya, Shariputra, Mahamaudgalyayana, Mahakashyapa, Revata, Subhuti, and Ananda. These are the one thousand three hundred fifty arhats.
復有一千三百凡夫比丘眾,復有金剛菩薩、大勢至菩薩、觀世音菩薩、大德勇猛菩薩、無盡意菩薩、大意菩薩、文殊師利童子菩薩,如是等無數菩薩摩訶薩。
There were also one thousand three hundred ordinary monk disciples. And there were Vajrasattva, Mahāsthāmaprāpta, Guanyin, the Great and Virtuous Brave One, the Endless Intention Bodhisattva, the Great Intention Bodhisattva, and the young Manjushri. There were countless such great bodhisattvas.
