佛說三歸五戒慈心厭離功德經

失譯人名今附東晉錄

聞如是：

一時，佛在舍衛國祇樹給孤獨園。佛為阿那邠邸長者說：「過去久遠，有梵志名毗羅摩，饒財多寶。若佈施時，用八萬四千金缽盛滿碎銀，八萬四千銀缽盛滿碎金，復以八萬四千金銀澡罐，復以八萬四千牛皆以金銀覆角，復以八萬四千玉女莊嚴具足，復以八萬四千臥具眾彩自覆，復以八萬四千衣裳，復以八萬四千象馬皆以金銀鞍勒，復以八萬四千房舍佈施；復於四城門中佈施，隨其所欲皆悉與之；復以一房舍施招提僧。如上施福，不如受三自歸。所以然者，受三歸者，施一切眾生無畏。是故歸佛、法、僧，其福不可計量也。

「如上佈施及受三歸福，復不如受五戒福。受五戒者，功德滿具，其福勝也。如上佈施及受三歸、五戒福，復不如彈指頃慈念眾生福也。如上佈施，及受三歸、五戒，慈念眾生福，復不如起一切世間不可樂想福。所以然者，起一切世間不可樂想福，能令行者滅生死苦，終成佛道，故其福最勝也。」

爾時長者聞佛所說，歡喜奉行

現代漢語譯本： 這是《大正藏》第01冊，編號為0072的《三歸五戒慈心厭離功德經》。 此經的譯者已失名，現附於東晉的記錄中。 我聽聞是這樣的： 一時，佛陀在舍衛國的祇樹給孤獨園。佛陀對阿那邠邸長者說：『過去很久以前，有一位名叫毗羅摩的婆羅門，他非常富有，擁有許多財寶。當他佈施時，用八萬四千個金缽盛滿碎銀，八萬四千個銀缽盛滿碎金，又用八萬四千個金銀澡罐，八萬四千頭牛都用金銀覆蓋牛角，八萬四千位玉女都裝飾得非常華麗，八萬四千張床鋪都用各種色彩的布覆蓋，八萬四千件衣裳，八萬四千匹象馬都配有金銀鞍轡，八萬四千間房屋進行佈施；還在四個城門中佈施，隨人們的需要都給予他們；又用一間房屋佈施給招提僧。像上面所說的佈施的福報，不如接受三自歸的福報。之所以這樣說，是因為接受三歸的人，能給予一切眾生無畏的保護。所以歸依佛、法、僧，其福報是不可計量的。』 『像上面所說的佈施以及接受三歸的福報，又不如接受五戒的福報。接受五戒的人，功德圓滿具足，其福報更為殊勝。像上面所說的佈施以及接受三歸、五戒的福報，又不如彈指之間慈念眾生的福報。像上面所說的佈施，以及接受三歸、五戒，慈念眾生的福報，又不如生起一切世間不可貪戀的想法的福報。之所以這樣說，是因為生起一切世間不可貪戀的想法的福報，能使修行者滅除生死之苦，最終成就佛道，所以其福報最為殊勝。』 當時，長者聽聞佛陀所說，歡喜地奉行。

English version: This is the 'Sanguipañcasīla Maitrī Vairāgya Guṇa Sūtra' (Sutra on the Merits of Taking the Three Refuges, Five Precepts, Loving-kindness, and Renunciation) from the Taisho Tripitaka, Volume 01, No. 0072. The translator of this sutra is unknown, and it is now attached to the records of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Thus have I heard: At one time, the Buddha was in the Jeta Grove of Anathapindika in Shravasti. The Buddha said to the elder Anathapindika: 'In the distant past, there was a Brahmin named Piroma, who was very wealthy and had many treasures. When he gave alms, he used eighty-four thousand gold bowls filled with crushed silver, eighty-four thousand silver bowls filled with crushed gold, eighty-four thousand gold and silver washbasins, eighty-four thousand cows with gold and silver covered horns, eighty-four thousand jade maidens adorned with ornaments, eighty-four thousand beds covered with various colored cloths, eighty-four thousand sets of clothing, eighty-four thousand elephants and horses with gold and silver saddles, and eighty-four thousand houses for alms; he also gave alms at the four city gates, giving whatever people desired; and he also gave a house to the Sangha. The merit of the above almsgiving is not as great as the merit of taking the Three Refuges. The reason for this is that those who take the Three Refuges give fearlessness to all sentient beings. Therefore, taking refuge in the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha, the merit is immeasurable.' 'The merit of the above almsgiving and taking the Three Refuges is not as great as the merit of taking the Five Precepts. Those who take the Five Precepts have complete merit, and their merit is even more superior. The merit of the above almsgiving and taking the Three Refuges and Five Precepts is not as great as the merit of having loving-kindness towards sentient beings for the time it takes to snap one's fingers. The merit of the above almsgiving, taking the Three Refuges and Five Precepts, and having loving-kindness towards sentient beings is not as great as the merit of generating the thought of the unattractiveness of all worldly things. The reason for this is that the merit of generating the thought of the unattractiveness of all worldly things can enable practitioners to extinguish the suffering of birth and death and ultimately attain Buddhahood, so its merit is the most superior.' At that time, the elder, having heard what the Buddha said, joyfully practiced it.
