Thus have I heard:

At one time, the Buddha was in Jeta Grove, Anathapindika's Park (Jetavana-Anathapindika-arama), in Shravasti (Sravasti), speaking the Dharma of generosity to a large assembly of Bhikshus. There are thirty-seven kinds:

By constantly giving, one will attain physical and mental well-being, without distraction or loss;
By giving with one's own hands, one will attain long, slender fingers and a dignified appearance;

If you seek supreme and wonderful blessings through giving, you should have a compassionate heart and not kill.'

，離諸嫉妒；正見相應，遠於不善；堅持禁戒，親近善友；閉惡趣門，開生天路；自利利他，其心平等。若如是施，是真佈施，是大福田。複次行施，隨自心願，獲其報應。或以妙色、名香、珍味、軟觸，親手佈施，得眾人尊重、眷屬圓滿、富貴安樂之報；或以飲食佈施，而得大力；或以酥油之燈佈施，而得天眼；或以音樂佈施，而得天耳；或以湯藥佈施，而得長壽；或以住處佈施，而得樓閣、田園；或以法說佈施，而得甘露。」

佛言：「大王！若以十善行施，復得十種報應。十善者：不殺生、不偷盜、不淫慾、不妄語、不綺語、不惡口、不兩舌、不貪、不瞋、不癡而得命不中夭，財無散失，眷屬清潔，所言誠諦，離諸嫉妒，人所喜見，親友和睦，不墮貧賤，顏貌端正，智慧相應，獲報如是。」

佛言：「大王！若以上妙飲食供養三寶，得五種利益：身相端嚴、氣力增盛、壽命延長、快樂安隱、成就辯才。如是南贍部洲一切眾生——父母、妻子、男女眷屬——如上佈施，隨愿所求，無不圓滿。」

說此法已，皆大歡喜，作禮而退。

佛說佈施經

【現代漢語翻譯】現代漢語譯本：遠離各種嫉妒；以正見相應，遠離不善；堅持戒律，親近善友；關閉通往惡道的門，開啟通往天界的道路；自利利他，心懷平等。如果這樣佈施，才是真正的佈施，是廣大的福田。進一步說，行佈施，隨著自己的心願，獲得相應的報應。或者以美妙的顏色、名貴的香氣、珍貴的美味、柔軟的觸感，親手佈施，得到眾人尊重、眷屬圓滿、富貴安樂的果報；或者以飲食佈施，而得到大力氣；或者以酥油燈佈施，而得到天眼；或者以音樂佈施，而得到天耳；或者以湯藥佈施，而得到長壽；或者以住所佈施，而得到樓閣、田園；或者以佛法開示佈施，而得到甘露。

佛說：『大王！如果以十善業行佈施，又會得到十種報應。十善就是：不殺生、不偷盜、不邪淫、不妄語、不綺語、不惡口、不兩舌、不貪婪、不嗔恨、不愚癡，從而得到不夭折的壽命，財富不散失，眷屬清凈，所說誠實可信，遠離各種嫉妒，人人都喜歡見到，親友和睦，不墮入貧賤，容貌端正，智慧相應，獲得的果報就是這樣。』

佛說：『大王！如果以上等的美味飲食供養三寶（佛、法、僧），可以得到五種利益：身相端正莊嚴、氣力增盛、壽命延長、快樂安穩、成就辯才。像這樣，南贍部洲（Jambudvipa，我們所居住的大陸）的一切眾生——父母、妻子、男女眷屬——如果按照以上方法佈施，隨著願望所求，沒有不圓滿的。』

說完這些佛法，大家都非常歡喜，行禮後退下。

《佛說佈施經》

【English Translation】 English version: Free from all jealousy; in accordance with right view, far from unwholesomeness; upholding precepts, associating with good friends; closing the gates to evil destinies, opening the path to heavenly realms; benefiting oneself and others, with a mind of equanimity. If one gives in this way, it is true giving, a vast field of merit. Furthermore, when giving, according to one's own wishes, one obtains corresponding rewards. Or, by giving beautiful colors, precious fragrances, exquisite flavors, soft touches, with one's own hands, one obtains the reward of being respected by all, having a complete family, and enjoying wealth and happiness; or by giving food, one obtains great strength; or by giving ghee lamps, one obtains the divine eye; or by giving music, one obtains the divine ear; or by giving medicinal soup, one obtains longevity; or by giving dwellings, one obtains mansions and fields; or by giving Dharma teachings, one obtains nectar.

The Buddha said: 'Great King! If one gives with the ten wholesome actions, one will also receive ten kinds of rewards. The ten wholesome actions are: not killing, not stealing, not engaging in sexual misconduct, not lying, not engaging in frivolous speech, not using harsh language, not engaging in divisive speech, not being greedy, not being hateful, and not being ignorant, thereby obtaining a life not cut short, wealth not scattered, a pure family, truthful speech, freedom from all jealousy, being pleasing to see, harmonious friends and relatives, not falling into poverty, an upright appearance, and corresponding wisdom. The rewards obtained are like this.'

The Buddha said: 'Great King! If one offers excellent food to the Triple Gem (Buddha, Dharma, Sangha), one can obtain five benefits: an upright and dignified appearance, increased strength, extended lifespan, happiness and peace, and accomplishment of eloquence. In this way, all beings in Jambudvipa (the continent we live on) – parents, wives, male and female relatives – if they give according to the above methods, whatever they wish for will be fulfilled.'

Having spoken this Dharma, everyone was very happy, paid their respects, and withdrew.
