【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本 《大乘無量壽經》
我是這樣聽說的：一時，薄伽梵（Bhagavan，世尊）在舍衛國（Śrāvastī）祇樹給孤獨園（Jetavana-anāthapindada-ārāma），與一千二百五十位大比丘僧（bhikṣu-saṃgha）和大菩薩摩訶薩（bodhisattva-mahāsattva）眾共同集會。當時，世尊告訴曼殊室利童子（Mañjuśrī Kumārabhūta）說：『曼殊室利，上方有一個世界，名為無量功德聚（Ananta-guṇa-saṃcaya）。彼土有一尊佛，號為無量智決定王如來（Amitajñāna-viniscaya-rāja-tathāgata），爲了眾生證得阿耨多羅三藐三菩提（anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi，無上正等正覺）而開示說法。曼殊室利，仔細聽著，南閻浮提（Jambudvīpa）的人壽命都很短，壽命極限是百年，其中夭折橫死的人很多。曼殊室利，像這樣無量壽如來的功德名稱法要，如果有眾生聽聞到名號，或者自己書寫，或者請人書寫，能夠為經卷受持讀誦，在所居住的舍宅之處，用種種花鬘、瓔珞、涂香、末香來供養，如果壽命將盡，還能因此得到延年益壽，滿足百歲。像這樣曼殊室利，如果有眾生，聽聞到無量壽智決定王如來的一百零八個名號，就能增長壽命。如果有眾生，大限將至，憶念這位如來的名號，便能得到增壽。像這樣曼殊室利，如果有善男子、善女人，想要尋求長壽，對於這無量壽如來的一百零八個名號，有人聽聞到，或者自己書寫，或者請人書寫，受持讀誦，就能得到像這樣的果報福德具足。』陀羅尼（dhāraṇī）曰：

【English Translation】 English version The Sutra of Immeasurable Life of the Mahayana
Thus have I heard. At one time, the Bhagavan (Bhagavan, the World-Honored One) was in the Jeta Grove, Anathapindika's Park in Shravasti (Śrāvastī), together with a large assembly of twelve hundred and fifty great bhikshus (bhikṣu-saṃgha) and great bodhisattva-mahāsattvas (bodhisattva-mahāsattva). At that time, the World-Honored One said to Manjushri Kumārabhūta (Mañjuśrī Kumārabhūta): 'Manjushri, above, there is a world called Immeasurable Accumulation of Merits (Ananta-guṇa-saṃcaya). In that land, there is a Buddha called the Tathagata, the King of Immeasurable Wisdom and Determination (Amitajñāna-viniscaya-rāja-tathāgata), who is currently expounding the Dharma for sentient beings to attain Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi, unsurpassed perfect enlightenment). Manjushri, listen carefully. The people of Jambudvipa (Jambudvīpa) have short lifespans, with a maximum of one hundred years, and many die prematurely or violently. Manjushri, like this, if sentient beings hear the meritorious name and Dharma essence of the Tathagata of Immeasurable Life, or if they write it themselves, or have others write it, and are able to uphold, recite, and chant the sutra, and offer various flower garlands, necklaces, scented pastes, and powdered incense in the place where they reside, they can extend their lives and fulfill a hundred years. Like this, Manjushri, if sentient beings hear the one hundred and eight names of the Tathagata, the King of Immeasurable Wisdom and Determination, they will increase their lifespan. If sentient beings are about to reach the end of their lives and remember the name of this Tathagata, they will gain increased longevity. Like this, Manjushri, if there are good men and good women who desire to seek long life, and if they hear these one hundred and eight names of the Tathagata of Immeasurable Life, or write them themselves, or have others write them, and uphold and recite them, they will obtain such complete merit and virtuous rewards.' The dharani (dhāraṇī) says:
Namo Bhagavate (namo bhagavate) (1) Aparimita (aparimita) (2) Ayur jnana (āyur jñāna) (3) Su-vinishchita (su-viniścita) (4) Rajaya (rājāya) (5) Tathagataya (tathāgatāya) (6) Tadyatha Om (tadyathā oṃ) (7) Sarva-samskara (sarva-saṃskāra) (8) Parishuddhi (pariśuddhi) (9) Dharmati (dharmati) (10) Gagana (gagana) (11) Svaha mukti-gate (svāhā mukti-gate) (12) Sarva-bhave (sarva-bhave)
輸底(十三)摩訶娜耶(十四)波唎婆唎莎訶(十五)
世尊復告曼殊室利。如是如來一百八名號有自晝。或使人書為經卷受持讀誦。如壽命盡復滿百年壽。終此身後得往生無量福智世界無量壽凈土。陀羅尼曰。

世尊又告訴曼殊室利（Manjusri，文殊菩薩）。如此如來一百零八名號有其自身的光輝。或者使人書寫成經卷，受持讀誦。如果壽命將盡，可以再增加一百年壽命。結束此身後，能夠往生到具有無量福智的世界，即無量壽凈土。陀羅尼（Dharani，總持）如下：

The World-Honored One further told Manjusri (Manjusri, the Bodhisattva of Wisdom): 'These 108 names of the Tathagata have their own radiance. Or, have people write them into scriptures, receive, uphold, read, and recite them. If their lifespan is about to end, they can gain another hundred years of life. After the end of this life, they can be reborn in the world of immeasurable blessings and wisdom, the Pure Land of Amitayus (Amitayus, Infinite Life). The Dharani (Dharani, mantra) is as follows:'
'Namo Bhagavate (1) (Namo Bhagavate, Homage to the Blessed One), Aparimita (2) (Aparimita, Immeasurable), Ayur jnana (3) (Ayur jnana, Life Wisdom), Suviniścita (4) (Suviniścita, Well Determined), Rajaya (5) (Rajaya, King), Tathagataya (6) (Tathagataya, Thus Come One), Tadyatha Om (7) (Tadyatha Om, Thus it is, Om), Sarva Samskara (8) (Sarva Samskara, All Formations), Parisuddhi (9) (Parisuddhi, Purity), Dharmati (10) (Dharmati, Dharma Mind), Gagana (11) (Gagana, Space), Svaha (Accomplishment)某持迦底, Svabhavavisuddhi (13) (Svabhavavisuddhi, Purity of Self-Nature), Mahānaya (14) (Mahānaya, Great Vehicle), Paripurna Svaha (15) (Paripurna Svaha, Complete Accomplishment).'
At that time, ninety-nine Gai (Gai, a unit of quantity) Buddhas and others, simultaneously proclaimed this essential scripture of Immeasurable Life. The Dharani (Dharani, mantra) is as follows:

Namo Bhagabati (1) (Homage to the Blessed One) Apari Mita (2) (Immeasurable) Ayur Gyane (3) (Inconceivable) Subini Siddhi Da (4) (Perfectly Accomplished) Rajaya (5) (King) Tathagataya (6) (Thus Come One) Tadyatha Om (7) (Thus it is: Om) Sarva Sang Si
迦啰(八)波唎輸底(九)達磨底(十)伽迦娜(十一)莎訶某持迦底(十二)薩婆婆毗輸底(十三)摩訶娜耶(十四)波唎婆囇莎訶
若有於是無量壽經自書寫若使人書寫。畢竟不受女人之身。陀羅尼曰。

若有能供養是經者。則是供養一切諸經等無有異。陀羅尼曰。

若有人對於這部《無量壽經》親自書寫，或者請人書寫，最終將不會再受女人之身。陀羅尼曰：
南謨(Namo，皈依)薄伽勃底(Bhagavati，世尊)阿波唎蜜哆(Aparimita，無量)阿喻紇硯娜(Ayurgyana，壽命智)須毗你悉指陀(Suviniscita，善決定)啰佐耶(Rajaya，王)怛他羯他耶(Tathagataya，如來)怛侄他(Tadyatha，即說咒曰)唵(Om，種子字)薩婆桑悉迦啰(Sarvasamskara，一切行)波唎輸底(Parisuddhi，清凈)達磨底(Dharmati，法意)伽迦娜(Gagana，虛空)莎訶(Svaha，成就)某持迦底(Mochikati，解脫)薩婆婆毗輸底(Sarvabhavavisuddhi，一切有情清凈)摩訶娜耶(Mahanaya，大乘)波唎婆囇莎訶(Parivara Svaha，眷屬成就)
若有人能夠對於這部經哪怕是少許部分進行惠施，這等同於用充滿三千大千世界的七寶進行佈施。陀羅尼曰：
南謨(Namo，皈依)薄伽勃底(Bhagavati，世尊)阿波唎蜜哆(Aparimita，無量)阿喻紇硯娜(Ayurgyana，壽命智)須毗你悉指陀(Suviniscita，善決定)啰佐耶(Rajaya，王)怛他羯他耶(Tathagataya，如來)怛侄他(Tadyatha，即說咒曰)唵(Om，種子字)薩婆桑悉迦啰(Sarvasamskara，一切行)波唎輸底(Parisuddhi，清凈)達磨底(Dharmati，法意)伽迦娜(Gagana，虛空)莎訶(Svaha，成就)某持迦底(Mochikati，解脫)莎婆婆毗輸底(Sarvabhavavisuddhi，一切有情清凈)摩訶娜耶(Mahanaya，大乘)波唎婆囇莎訶(Parivara Svaha，眷屬成就)
若有人能夠供養這部經，那麼就等同於供養一切諸經，沒有差別。陀羅尼曰：

If there are those who personally transcribe this Infinite Life Sutra, or cause others to transcribe it, they will ultimately not receive a woman's body. The Dharani says:
Namo (南謨, Homage to) Bhagavati (薄伽勃底, The Blessed One), Aparimita (阿波唎蜜哆, Immeasurable), Ayurgyana (阿喻紇硯娜, Wisdom of Longevity), Suviniscita (須毗你悉指陀, Well Determined), Rajaya (啰佐耶, King), Tathagataya (怛他羯他耶, Thus Come One), Tadyatha (怛侄他, Thus it is), Om (唵, Seed Syllable), Sarvasamskara (薩婆桑悉迦啰, All formations), Parisuddhi (波唎輸底, Purity), Dharmati (達磨底, Meaning of Dharma), Gagana (伽迦娜, Space), Svaha (莎訶, Accomplishment), Mochikati (某持迦底, Liberation), Sarvabhavavisuddhi (薩婆婆毗輸底, Purity of all beings), Mahanaya (摩訶娜耶, Great Vehicle), Parivara Svaha (波唎婆囇莎訶, Retinue Accomplishment).
If there are those who can give even a small portion of this Sutra as a gift, it is equivalent to giving offerings of the seven treasures filling the three thousand great thousand worlds. The Dharani says:
Namo (南謨, Homage to) Bhagavati (薄伽勃底, The Blessed One), Aparimita (阿波唎蜜哆, Immeasurable), Ayurgyana (阿喻紇硯娜, Wisdom of Longevity), Suviniscita (須毗你悉指陀, Well Determined), Rajaya (啰佐耶, King), Tathagataya (怛他羯他耶, Thus Come One), Tadyatha (怛侄他, Thus it is), Om (唵, Seed Syllable), Sarvasamskara (薩婆桑悉迦啰, All formations), Parisuddhi (波唎輸底, Purity), Dharmati (達磨底, Meaning of Dharma), Gagana (伽迦娜, Space), Svaha (莎訶, Accomplishment), Mochikati (某持迦底, Liberation), Sarvabhavavisuddhi (莎婆婆毗輸底, Purity of all beings), Mahanaya (摩訶娜耶, Great Vehicle), Parivara Svaha (波唎婆囇莎訶, Retinue Accomplishment).
If there are those who can make offerings to this Sutra, it is the same as making offerings to all Sutras, without any difference. The Dharani says:

若有人以七寶供養。如是七佛。其福有限。書寫受持是無量壽經典。所有功德不可限量。陀羅尼曰。

Kasyapa Buddha (Kasyapa Buddha). Sakyamuni Buddha (Sakyamuni Buddha). If someone makes offerings of the seven treasures to these seven Buddhas, their merit is limited. Writing, reciting, and upholding this 'Infinite Life Sutra', all merits are immeasurable. The Dharani (Dharani) says: Namo Bhagavate (Namo Bhagavate): Homage to the Blessed One. Apari-mita (Apari-mita): Immeasurable. Ayur-jñana (Ayur-jñana): Life and wisdom. Su-viniścita (Su-viniścita): Well determined. Rajaya (Rajaya): King. Tathagataya (Tathagataya): Thus Come One.

If one uses seven treasures equal to the volume of Mount Sumeru (Sumeru) for almsgiving, that merit can still be known, but the merit of transcribing this 'Infinite Life Sutra' is incalculable. The Dharani says: Namo Bhagavate (Namo Bhagavate): Homage to the Blessed One. Apari-mita (Apari-mita): Immeasurable. Ayur-jñana (Ayur-jñana): Life and wisdom.

If someone personally writes, or has others write this 'Infinite Life Sutra', and can protect and make offerings, this is the same as respectfully making offerings to all the Tathagatas in the ten directions' Buddha lands, without any difference. The Dharani says:
