西天譯經三藏朝散大夫試鴻臚卿傳法大師臣施護奉　詔譯

如是我聞：

一時佛在王舍城鷲峰山中，時尊者大目乾連食時欲至，著衣持缽將詣王城，忽作是念：「我於今日，先往色究竟天，問少因緣，卻來乞食。」於是尊者大目乾連，入三摩地等引，譬如力士屈伸臂頃，到色究竟天。既至彼已，與天相見，以種種軟語互相問訊。時尊者大目乾連乃問天言：「經於何時有佛世尊出現於世，證無上菩提？」於是有百色究竟天主同聲答言：「滿百千劫，有佛出世，證無上菩提。」

爾時尊者大目乾連，聞已信受，即入三摩地，譬如力士屈伸臂頃，從色究竟天還到王城，即如常日，次第乞食。食畢澡漱收衣缽已，往詣佛所。即以頭面禮佛雙足，脩敬畢已，在一面坐，合掌瞻仰，而白佛言：「世尊，我於今日食時欲至，入三摩地往色究竟天，問彼天人：『經於何時有佛出世，證無上菩提？』彼百天主同聲告我：『滿百千劫，有佛出世，證無上菩提。』世尊！我雖信受，是事云何？唯愿世尊，為我開說。」

爾時世尊告大目乾連：「汝今諦聽，當爲汝說。大目乾連！彼色究竟天主，知見甚少，

【現代漢語翻譯】現代漢語譯本如是我聞：一時，佛陀在王舍城（Rājagṛha）的鷲峰山（Gṛdhrakūṭa）中。當時，尊者大目乾連（Mahāmaudgalyāyana）快到吃飯的時候了，他穿好衣服，拿著缽，準備前往王城。忽然他心中想：『我今天應該先去色究竟天（Akaniṣṭha），問一些因緣，然後再回來乞食。』於是，尊者大目乾連進入三摩地（samādhi）等引，就像力士屈伸手臂一樣，瞬間到達了色究竟天。到達那裡后，他與天人相見，用各種柔和的語言互相問候。當時，尊者大目乾連問天人：『經過多久，才會有佛世尊（Buddha）出現在世間，證得無上菩提（anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi）？』於是，一百位色究竟天的天主（Akaniṣṭha devas）同聲回答說：『滿一百千劫（kalpa），會有佛陀出世，證得無上菩提。』當時，尊者大目乾連聽后信受，立即進入三摩地，就像力士屈伸手臂一樣，從色究竟天回到了王城，然後像往常一樣，依次乞食。吃完飯，洗漱完畢，收好衣服和缽后，他前往佛陀所在的地方。他用頭面禮拜佛陀的雙足，恭敬地行禮完畢后，在一旁坐下，合掌瞻仰，對佛陀說：『世尊，我今天快到吃飯的時候，進入三摩地前往色究竟天，問那裡的天人：『經過多久，才會有佛陀出世，證得無上菩提？』那一百位天主同聲告訴我：『滿一百千劫，會有佛陀出世，證得無上菩提。』世尊！我雖然相信接受了，但這件事究竟是怎樣的呢？希望世尊為我開示。』當時，世尊告訴大目乾連：『你現在仔細聽，我將為你解說。大目乾連！那些色究竟天的天主，知見非常少，

【English Translation】 English version Thus have I heard: At one time, the Buddha was in the Vulture Peak Mountain (Gṛdhrakūṭa) in Rājagṛha. At that time, the venerable Mahāmaudgalyāyana, as the time for his meal approached, put on his robes and, holding his bowl, prepared to go to the royal city. Suddenly, he thought: 『Today, I should first go to the Akaniṣṭha heaven, ask about some causes and conditions, and then come back to beg for food.』 Thereupon, the venerable Mahāmaudgalyāyana entered into samādhi, and as quickly as a strong man extends or retracts his arm, he arrived at the Akaniṣṭha heaven. Having arrived there, he met with the devas, and they greeted each other with various gentle words. Then, the venerable Mahāmaudgalyāyana asked the devas: 『After how long will a Buddha appear in the world, attaining anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi?』 Then, a hundred Akaniṣṭha devas answered in unison: 『After a hundred thousand kalpas, a Buddha will appear in the world, attaining anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi.』 At that time, the venerable Mahāmaudgalyāyana, having heard this, accepted it with faith. He immediately entered samādhi, and as quickly as a strong man extends or retracts his arm, he returned from the Akaniṣṭha heaven to the royal city. Then, as usual, he went about begging for food in order. After eating, washing, and putting away his robes and bowl, he went to where the Buddha was. He bowed his head to the Buddha』s feet, paid his respects, and sat down to one side, with his palms joined, gazing up at the Buddha. He said to the Buddha: 『World Honored One, today, as the time for my meal approached, I entered samādhi and went to the Akaniṣṭha heaven, asking the devas there: 『After how long will a Buddha appear in the world, attaining anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi?』 Those hundred devas told me in unison: 『After a hundred thousand kalpas, a Buddha will appear in the world, attaining anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi.』 World Honored One! Although I believe and accept this, what is the truth of this matter? I beseech the World Honored One to explain it to me.』 At that time, the World Honored One said to Mahāmaudgalyāyana: 『Now listen carefully, and I will explain it to you. Mahāmaudgalyāyana! Those Akaniṣṭha devas have very little knowledge and understanding,

乃謂汝言：『滿百千劫，有佛出世，證無上菩提。』此非正言，未可深信。大目乾連！我念往昔，最初值遇六十俱胝諸佛如來出現於世，而彼諸佛，住世利生或久或近，各各隨緣次第入滅；如是相繼，復有八十俱胝佛，出現於世，同名妙華。我于如是一一佛前，發大誓願，及持梵行。於此佛后，復有五百佛出現於世，同名正梵。於此佛后，復有八百佛出現於世，同名燃燈。於此佛后，復有一萬五千佛，同名昝么沒，出現於世。於此佛后，復有一千佛出現於世，名號族姓各各不同。我于如是佛前，復發誓願，修持梵行。於此佛后，復有六千佛出現於世，同名蘇缽啰多波。於此佛后，復有九萬佛出現於世，同名妙迦葉。於此佛后，復有一千佛出現於世，同名為日。於此佛后，復有一千佛出現於世，同名染沒𠆙野。於此佛后，復有八萬佛出現於世，同名曀羅嚩帝。於此佛后，復有七萬佛出現於世，同名帝釋。於此佛后，復有一佛，名德，出現於世，我於此佛，與諸聲聞弟子，同發誓愿，恭敬供養。經于多歲，於此佛后，復有八十俱胝那由他辟支佛出現於世。

「大目乾連！彼辟支佛，在於我前發大誓願，及有轉輪聖王名曰遍照，亦於我前，先得值遇四十同名無能勝佛。大目乾連！我于德佛滅后，值遇一佛，亦名無能勝

【現代漢語翻譯】現代漢語譯本：有人對你說：『經過百千劫的時間，會有佛陀出世，證得無上菩提。』這話並不正確，不可深信。大目乾連（佛陀十大弟子之一）！我回憶過去，最初遇到六十俱胝（古印度計數單位，一俱胝等於一千萬）諸佛如來出現在世間，那些佛陀住世教化眾生，時間有長有短，各自隨緣次第入滅；這樣相繼，又有八十俱胝佛，出現在世間，都名為妙華。我在這些每一位佛前，都發下大誓願，並持守清凈的修行。在這之後，又有五百佛出現在世間，都名為正梵。在這之後，又有八百佛出現在世間，都名為燃燈。在這之後，又有一萬五千佛，都名為昝么沒（音譯），出現在世間。在這之後，又有一千佛出現在世間，他們的名號和族姓各不相同。我在這些佛前，又發下誓願，修持清凈的修行。在這之後，又有六千佛出現在世間，都名為蘇缽啰多波（音譯）。在這之後，又有九萬佛出現在世間，都名為妙迦葉（音譯）。在這之後，又有一千佛出現在世間，都名為日。在這之後，又有一千佛出現在世間，都名為染沒𠆙野（音譯）。在這之後，又有八萬佛出現在世間，都名為曀羅嚩帝（音譯）。在這之後，又有七萬佛出現在世間，都名為帝釋（天神名）。在這之後，有一位佛，名為德，出現在世間，我在這位佛前，與諸聲聞弟子，一同發下誓願，恭敬供養。經過多年，在這位佛之後，又有八十俱胝那由他（古印度計數單位，一那由他等於一億）辟支佛（又稱獨覺，不依佛陀教導而自行開悟者）出現在世間。大目乾連！那些辟支佛，在我面前發下大誓願，還有一位轉輪聖王（擁有統治世界的理想君主）名為遍照，也在我之前，先遇到四十位同名為無能勝的佛。大目乾連！我在德佛滅度后，遇到一位佛，也名為無能勝。

【English Translation】 English version: Someone might say to you, 『After a hundred thousand kalpas (an extremely long period of time), a Buddha will appear in the world, attaining Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (supreme enlightenment).』 This is not correct, and should not be deeply believed. Mahāmaudgalyāyana (one of the Buddha's ten great disciples)! I recall in the past, I first encountered sixty kotis (an ancient Indian unit of counting, one koti equals ten million) of Tathāgatas (Buddhas) appearing in the world. Those Buddhas lived in the world to benefit beings, some for a long time, some for a short time, each according to their conditions, entering Parinirvana (final liberation) in succession. Following this, there were another eighty kotis of Buddhas, appearing in the world, all named Wonderful Flower. Before each of these Buddhas, I made great vows and practiced pure conduct. After these Buddhas, there were five hundred Buddhas appearing in the world, all named Righteous Brahma. After these Buddhas, there were eight hundred Buddhas appearing in the world, all named Burning Lamp. After these Buddhas, there were fifteen thousand Buddhas, all named Zanmeimei (transliteration), appearing in the world. After these Buddhas, there were one thousand Buddhas appearing in the world, their names and family names each different. Before these Buddhas, I again made vows and practiced pure conduct. After these Buddhas, there were six thousand Buddhas appearing in the world, all named Supratapa (transliteration). After these Buddhas, there were ninety thousand Buddhas appearing in the world, all named Wonderful Kasyapa (transliteration). After these Buddhas, there were one thousand Buddhas appearing in the world, all named Sun. After these Buddhas, there were one thousand Buddhas appearing in the world, all named Ranmeiyeye (transliteration). After these Buddhas, there were eighty thousand Buddhas appearing in the world, all named Elavati (transliteration). After these Buddhas, there were seventy thousand Buddhas appearing in the world, all named Indra (name of a deity). After these Buddhas, there was one Buddha, named Virtue, appearing in the world. Before this Buddha, I, along with the Sravaka (hearer) disciples, made vows together, respectfully making offerings. After many years, after this Buddha, there were eighty kotis nayutas (an ancient Indian unit of counting, one nayuta equals one hundred million) of Pratyekabuddhas (also known as solitary Buddhas, those who attain enlightenment on their own without relying on a Buddha's teachings) appearing in the world. Mahāmaudgalyāyana! Those Pratyekabuddhas made great vows before me, and there was also a Chakravartin (ideal universal ruler) named Universal Illumination, who also before me, first encountered forty Buddhas all named Invincible. Mahāmaudgalyāyana! After the Parinirvana of the Buddha Virtue, I encountered a Buddha, also named Invincible.

。於此佛世，我為轉輪聖王名為百號，與無能勝佛聲聞弟子同發誓愿，恭敬供養。經歷多年，佛入滅后，我以七寶建塔，供養舍利。如是修行，經無量時。大目乾連！我於是時，得證菩提。」

After many years, when the Buddha entered Parinirvana, I built a stupa with seven treasures to enshrine the relics. Practicing in this way, I passed through immeasurable time. Mahamudgalyayana (one of the Buddha's ten great disciples)! It was then that I attained Bodhi (enlightenment).' 'Furthermore, Mahamudgalyayana!

Mahamogallana (one of the ten great disciples of the Buddha)! I previously made a vow that, for all these Buddhas, after scattering and offering seven-jeweled flowers, I would then attain perfect enlightenment. 'Mahamogallana! Each of those Buddhas, from the initial arising of their aspiration to the attainment of perfect enlightenment, all went through countless kalpas. From the arising of my aspiration to my attainment of Buddhahood, the number of kalpas is very many, uncountable. The Akanistha Heaven (the highest heaven in the Form Realm of the Buddhist cosmology) has limited knowledge and vision; do not have doubts.' At that time, after the World Honored One finished speaking this sutra. Mahamogallana's doubts were immediately dispelled, and he rejoiced and leaped with joy, bowed to the Buddha, and withdrew. The Buddha Speaks the Sutra of the Buddhas
