梁 扶南三藏 僧伽婆羅 譯
如是我聞（我是這樣聽說的）。一時，佛住在毗舍離國（Vaishali）的大林精舍。與一千二百五十位大比丘眾在一起。當時，佛心想：『再過三個月，我就要入涅槃（Nirvana）了。』於是告訴長老目揵連（Maudgalyayana）：『你應當前往一千個世界，告知比丘僧眾來到我這裡。』當時，目連（Maudgalyayana）接受了佛的教令，在一念之間到達須彌山（Mount Sumeru）頂，發出巨大的聲音遍告一千個世界。當時，大林精舍有四十億萬比丘眾，都來到佛的住所，頂禮佛足，然後退坐在一旁。
當時，長老舍利弗（Sariputra）一心思維：『我應當以神通之力，遍令三千大千世界有比丘眾的地方，都讓他們聚集到這個大林精舍。』於是以神通，遍令三千大千世界，無論是聲聞眾（Sravaka），還是緣覺眾（Pratyekabuddha），還是菩薩眾（Bodhisattva），一時都來聚集。到達后，頂禮佛足。
當時，世尊在一念之間，告訴諸位菩薩：『他們的名字是善見菩薩（Bhadradarshana Bodhisattva），文殊師利菩薩（Manjushri Bodhisattva），除惡趣菩薩（Sarvadurgati-prashamana Bodhisattva），斷闇冥菩薩（Andhakara-vidhvamsa Bodhisattva），出一切境界竟菩薩（Sarva-kshetra-nirghata Bodhisattva），伏諸蓋菩薩（Sarva-avarana-vinivarana Bodhisattva），觀世音菩薩（Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva），香象菩薩（Gandhahasti Bodhisattva），樂說頂菩薩（Priyavadana Bodhisattva），彌勒菩薩（Maitreya Bodhisattva）。善男子，你們應當前往十方恒河沙數那麼多的諸佛世界，那裡有諸位菩薩，一生補處菩薩（Ekajati-pratibaddha Bodhisattva），阿鞞跋致菩薩（Avaivartika Bodhisattva），已得無生法忍菩薩（Anutpattika-dharma-kshanti Bodhisattva），你們應當普遍告知他們都來聚集到這裡。』當時，諸位菩薩聽到佛的這些話，回答說：『善哉善哉。』隨即接受教令，在一念之間，以神通力普遍聚集十方恒河沙數那麼多的諸佛世界的一切菩薩。
【English Translation】 English version Sariputra Dharani Sutra
Translated by Tripitaka Samghabala of Liang Funan
Thus have I heard. At one time, the Buddha was dwelling in the Great Forest Monastery in the country of Vaishali (毗舍離國). He was with a gathering of twelve hundred and fifty great Bhikshus (比丘). At that time, the Buddha thought: 'In three months, I will enter Nirvana (涅槃).' He then told the elder Maudgalyayana (目揵連): 'You should go to a thousand worlds and tell the Bhikshu Sangha (比丘僧) to come to me.' At that time, Maudgalyayana (目連) received the Buddha's command and, in a single thought, arrived at the summit of Mount Sumeru (須彌山). He emitted a great sound, proclaiming it throughout a thousand worlds. At that time, there were forty billion Bhikshus (比丘) in the Great Forest Monastery, who all came to the Buddha's abode, prostrated themselves at the Buddha's feet, and then withdrew to sit on one side.
At that time, the elder Sariputra (舍利弗) thought with one mind: 'I should use my supernatural powers to cause all the Bhikshus (比丘) in the three thousand great thousand worlds to gather at this Great Forest Monastery.' Then, with his supernatural powers, he caused all the Sravakas (聲聞), Pratyekabuddhas (緣覺), and Bodhisattvas (菩薩) in the three thousand great thousand worlds to gather at once. Having arrived, they prostrated themselves at the Buddha's feet.
At that time, the World Honored One, in a single thought, told the Bodhisattvas: 'Their names are Bhadradarshana Bodhisattva (善見菩薩), Manjushri Bodhisattva (文殊師利菩薩), Sarvadurgati-prashamana Bodhisattva (除惡趣菩薩), Andhakara-vidhvamsa Bodhisattva (斷闇冥菩薩), Sarva-kshetra-nirghata Bodhisattva (出一切境界竟菩薩), Sarva-avarana-vinivarana Bodhisattva (伏諸蓋菩薩), Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva (觀世音菩薩), Gandhahasti Bodhisattva (香象菩薩), Priyavadana Bodhisattva (樂說頂菩薩), Maitreya Bodhisattva (彌勒菩薩). Good men, you should go to the Buddha worlds as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River in the ten directions. There are Bodhisattvas there, Ekajati-pratibaddha Bodhisattvas (一生補處菩薩), Avaivartika Bodhisattvas (阿鞞跋致菩薩), Anutpattika-dharma-kshanti Bodhisattvas (已得無生法忍菩薩). You should universally inform them to all gather here.' At that time, the Bodhisattvas, hearing these words of the Buddha, replied: 'Excellent, excellent.' They then received the teaching and, in a single thought, used their supernatural powers to universally gather all the Bodhisattvas from the Buddha worlds as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River in the ten directions.
。皆悉集此大林精舍。百千三十萬億那由他。一生補處菩薩。阿鞞跋致。已得無生法忍菩薩。百千萬億那由他一生補處菩薩。三十萬億那由他不退無生法忍菩薩。一切皆集俱禮佛足卻坐一面。
是時舍利弗見諸菩薩大眾一心思惟。我今當問如來正遍知所未聞法。以此問故諸菩薩等。當得無疑當無障礙樂說智慧。當聞恒河沙世界諸佛說法。乃至未得阿耨多羅三藐三菩提。常憶宿命。當得菩薩四種清凈。云何為四。眾生清凈。法清凈。樂說清凈。佛土清凈。復得四妙好法雲何為四。身妙好口妙好。心妙好生處妙好。復得入四種陀羅尼門云何為四。謂無盡受持陀羅尼門。入眾生諸根方便陀羅尼門。業果報方便無礙陀羅尼門。深法忍陀羅尼門。如所思惟次第發問如寶摩尼珠。白佛言世尊。我今欲次第發問。令諸菩薩德行清凈。唯愿世尊當爲我說。佛告舍利弗諸菩薩摩訶薩。若欲到一切諸法而無所著者。當說此咒。

【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本： 他們都聚集在這大林精舍（Mahavana Jeta Vihara）。有百千三十萬億那由他（nayuta，數量單位）一生補處菩薩（Ekajatipratibaddha Bodhisattva，指下一生將成佛的菩薩），阿鞞跋致（Avaivartika，不退轉）菩薩，已得無生法忍（anutpattika-dharma-ksanti，對諸法不生不滅的證悟）的菩薩。百千萬億那由他一生補處菩薩，三十萬億那由他不退無生法忍菩薩，一切都聚集在一起，頂禮佛足，退坐在一旁。
這時，舍利弗（Sariputra）看到諸位菩薩大眾一心思維，心想：『我現在應當請問如來正遍知（Tathagata Samyak-sambuddha，如實的、遍知的覺悟者）所未曾宣說的法。因為我這樣提問的緣故，諸位菩薩等，應當能夠得到無疑無礙的樂說智慧，應當能夠聽聞恒河沙世界諸佛說法，乃至未得阿耨多羅三藐三菩提（anuttara-samyak-sambodhi，無上正等正覺）之前，常常憶念宿命，應當得到菩薩四種清凈。』什麼是四種清凈呢？眾生清凈，法清凈，樂說清凈，佛土清凈。又得到四種妙好之法，什麼是四種呢？身妙好，口妙好，心妙好，生處妙好。又得到進入四種陀羅尼門（dharani-mukha，總持法門）的機會，什麼是四種呢？即無盡受持陀羅尼門，入眾生諸根方便陀羅尼門，業果報方便無礙陀羅尼門，深法忍陀羅尼門。如他所思惟的次第，像寶摩尼珠（mani-ratna，如意寶珠）一樣，稟白佛說：『世尊，我現在想要次第發問，令諸菩薩的德行清凈，唯愿世尊您為我解說。』佛告訴舍利弗：『諸位菩薩摩訶薩（Bodhisattva-mahasattva，大菩薩），如果想要通達一切諸法而無所執著，應當誦持此咒：』

【English Translation】 English version: They all gathered at this Mahavana Jeta Vihara (Great Forest Monastery). There were a hundred thousand, thirty million, nayutas (nayuta, a unit of quantity) of Ekajatipratibaddha Bodhisattvas (Bodhisattvas bound by only one more birth, meaning they will become Buddhas in their next life), Avaivartika (non-regressing) Bodhisattvas, and Bodhisattvas who had attained anutpattika-dharma-ksanti (the acceptance of the non-arising of all dharmas). A hundred million nayutas of Ekajatipratibaddha Bodhisattvas, thirty million nayutas of non-regressing Bodhisattvas who had attained the acceptance of the non-arising of all dharmas, all gathered together, bowed at the Buddha's feet, and sat to one side.
At that time, Sariputra (Sariputra), seeing the assembly of Bodhisattvas all thinking with one mind, thought to himself: 'Now I should ask the Tathagata Samyak-sambuddha (the Thus-Come One, the Perfectly and Completely Awakened One) about the Dharma that has not yet been spoken. Because of my asking this question, all the Bodhisattvas should be able to obtain unobstructed eloquence and wisdom, and should be able to hear the Buddhas of the Ganges River sand-number worlds expounding the Dharma, and until they attain anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (unexcelled perfect enlightenment), they should always remember their past lives, and should obtain the four kinds of purity of a Bodhisattva.' What are the four kinds of purity? The purity of beings, the purity of Dharma, the purity of eloquence, and the purity of Buddha-lands. Furthermore, they will obtain four kinds of wonderful qualities. What are the four? A wonderful body, wonderful speech, a wonderful mind, and a wonderful place of birth. Furthermore, they will have the opportunity to enter the four kinds of dharani-mukhas (dharani-gates). What are the four? Namely, the dharani-gate of endless reception and retention, the dharani-gate of entering the expedient means of the various faculties of beings, the dharani-gate of unobstructed expedient means of karmic retribution, and the dharani-gate of profound acceptance of the Dharma.' In the order of his thoughts, like a mani-ratna (wish-fulfilling jewel), he said to the Buddha: 'World-Honored One, now I wish to ask questions in order, so that the virtuous conduct of all the Bodhisattvas may be purified. May the World-Honored One explain this to me.' The Buddha told Sariputra: 'If all you Bodhisattva-mahasattvas (great Bodhisattvas) wish to reach all dharmas without being attached to anything, you should recite this mantra:'

Sariputra (舍利弗, one of the ten great disciples of the Buddha). If a Bodhisattva cultivates this Dharani mantra, he does not contemplate conditioned or unconditioned dharmas. He does not speak of this dharma, does not observe this dharma. He does not cling to this dharma, does not create this dharma. He does not seek to attain this dharma, does not extinguish this dharma. He does not seek to increase or decrease, does not see corresponding or non-corresponding dharmas. He does not see arising and ceasing, does not see the three times of past, present, and future. He does not see the dharma of regression, does not see the dharma of gathering and scattering. He has no speech, only cultivates mindfulness of the Buddha. He does not contemplate form, does not contemplate auspicious marks, does not contemplate non-auspicious marks. He does not contemplate precepts, does not contemplate non-precepts. Likewise for concentration, wisdom, liberation, and the knowledge and vision of liberation. He does not contemplate lineage, relatives, and family. Abode, non-abode, place to arrive, place not to arrive, he does not discriminate the aggregates, realms, and entrances. He does not contemplate wisdom, non-wisdom. He does not contemplate self-purity, other-purity, sentient being purity, non-sentient being purity. He does not act for his own benefit, does not act for the benefit of others. He does not contemplate the purity of the three karmas. He does not contemplate the purity of present and future actions. Sariputra, this is called mindfulness of the Buddha, named as taking in all dharmas, named as obtaining the expedient Dharani for practicing all dharmas. It is also named as cultivating the supreme meaning, also named as fulfilling the desired concentration, named as single-mindedly seeking to attain Bodhi (菩提, enlightenment). It is also named as all good roots not depending on others' cultivation of the Dharma treasury nature, also named as the Dharani covering auspicious marks, also named as the Dharani seeking expedients, also named as the Dharani liberating from demons. Sariputra, this Dharani has boundless practices and vows. If future Bodhisattvas obtain this meaning, they will achieve non-retrogression from Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (阿耨多羅三藐三菩提, unsurpassed, complete and perfect enlightenment) and will be swift.
得無上道。何以故此是一切諸佛功德藏。此是分別諸眾生行。故此陀羅尼名無所得行。爾時世尊說此祇夜。
汝等莫樂著 一切諸法空 于諸佛菩提 亦莫起分別 不計一切法 有過及無過 若能修此行 速得陀羅尼 聽此修多羅 無盡亦無滅 習智慧眾具 當得無上道 菩薩受持此 陀羅尼法門 能聞十方佛 所說微妙教 次知第一法 文字及句義 如日月光明 遍照無不盡 菩薩了諸法 其相亦復然 此陀羅尼門 攝一切諸法 眾生有疑惑 一切諸問難 持陀羅尼者 悉皆能解說 於此菩薩智 未曾有退減 此是佛真子 速得至菩提 持陀羅尼者 諸佛之所念 眾生所尊重 持陀羅尼故 現身能得見 八千萬億佛 諸佛手所摩 慰喻令安隱 能於一日月 受持陀羅尼 億千劫中罪 一切皆滅盡 于無數劫中 修習諸功德 一月陀羅尼 功德等於彼 一切諸天魔 無有能留難 持此陀羅尼 定慧諸功德 一切諸佛法 悉皆能總持 說陀羅尼門 有人決定信 于未來世中 必得無上道 昔者然燈佛 聞陀羅尼故 為諸佛所記 成道號然燈 樂於一念頃 見恒河沙佛 亦樂
【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本 能夠證得無上道。為什麼呢？因為這個陀羅尼是一切諸佛功德的寶藏，它能夠分辨各種眾生的行為。所以這個陀羅尼被稱為『無所得行』。當時，世尊說了這段偈語：
『你們不要貪戀執著，一切諸法都是空性的。 對於諸佛的菩提（bodhi，覺悟），也不要產生分別心。 不要計較一切法，有什麼過失或者沒有過失。 如果能夠修持這種行為，很快就能得到陀羅尼（dharani，總持）。 聽聞這個修多羅（sutra，經），是無盡無滅的。 修習智慧和資糧，應當證得無上道。 菩薩（bodhisattva，菩薩）受持這個陀羅尼法門， 能夠聽聞十方諸佛所說的微妙教法。 進而瞭解第一義諦，文字以及句子的含義。 就像日月的光明，普遍照耀沒有不遍及的地方。 菩薩瞭解諸法的實相，它們的相狀也是如此。 這個陀羅尼門，總攝一切諸法。 眾生有疑惑，一切的疑問和難題， 持陀羅尼的人，都能夠解釋說明。 對於這位菩薩的智慧，從來沒有退減。 這是佛的真子，很快就能到達菩提（bodhi，覺悟）。 持陀羅尼的人，是諸佛所憶念的。 是眾生所尊重的，因為持陀羅尼的緣故。 現世能夠得見八千萬億佛。 諸佛用手摩頂，安慰並使其安穩。 能夠在一天一夜，受持陀羅尼。 億千劫中所造的罪業，一切都能夠滅盡。 在無數劫中，修習各種功德， 一個月持陀羅尼的功德，等於那些功德。 一切諸天和魔，沒有能夠阻礙留難的。 持這個陀羅尼，能夠增長禪定和智慧等各種功德。 一切諸佛的法，都能夠總持。 宣說陀羅尼門，有人能夠決定相信， 在未來世中，必定能夠證得無上道。 過去然燈佛（Dipamkara Buddha），因為聽聞陀羅尼的緣故， 被諸佛授記，成道后名為然燈佛（Dipamkara Buddha）。 樂於一念之間，見到恒河沙數般的佛， 也樂於……』
【English Translation】 English version Attain the unsurpassed path. Why? Because this dharani (dharani, a type of mantra or incantation) is the treasury of all Buddhas' merits. It distinguishes the practices of all sentient beings. Therefore, this dharani is named 'The Practice of Non-Attainment'. At that time, the World Honored One spoke this gatha (gatha, a verse):
『You should not delight in attachment; all dharmas (dharmas, phenomena) are empty. Towards the bodhi (bodhi, enlightenment) of all Buddhas, do not give rise to discrimination. Do not calculate all dharmas, whether they have faults or are without faults. If one can cultivate this practice, one will quickly attain dharani (dharani, a type of mantra or incantation). Listen to this sutra (sutra, a discourse of the Buddha), it is endless and without extinction. Practice wisdom and accumulate resources; you should attain the unsurpassed path. Bodhisattvas (bodhisattva, an enlightened being) who uphold this dharani dharma gate, Can hear the subtle teachings spoken by the Buddhas of the ten directions. Further, understand the ultimate truth, the meaning of words and phrases. Like the light of the sun and moon, shining universally without exception. Bodhisattvas understand the nature of all dharmas; their characteristics are also thus. This dharani gate encompasses all dharmas. If sentient beings have doubts, all questions and difficulties, Those who uphold the dharani can explain and elucidate them all. The wisdom of this Bodhisattva never diminishes. This is a true child of the Buddha, who will quickly reach bodhi (bodhi, enlightenment). Those who uphold the dharani are remembered by all the Buddhas. They are respected by sentient beings because of upholding the dharani. In this very life, they can see eighty million nayutas of Buddhas. The Buddhas pat their heads, comforting them and bringing them peace. If one can uphold the dharani for one day and one night, The sins committed in billions of kalpas (kalpa, an aeon) will all be extinguished. The merits cultivated in countless kalpas, The merit of upholding the dharani for one month is equal to those. All devas (deva, gods) and demons cannot hinder or obstruct. Upholding this dharani increases dhyana (dhyana, meditation), wisdom, and all merits. All the Buddhadharma (Buddhadharma, the teachings of the Buddha) can be completely upheld. Speaking of the dharani gate, if someone has firm faith, In the future, they will surely attain the unsurpassed path. In the past, Dipamkara Buddha (Dipamkara Buddha), because he heard the dharani, Was predicted by all the Buddhas, and upon attaining enlightenment was named Dipamkara (Dipamkara Buddha). Delighting in seeing as many Buddhas as the sands of the Ganges in a single thought, Also delight in...
知十方 諸佛所說法 受持陀羅尼 悉得果所樂 其人必有力 凈諸佛國土 光明及相好 眾事皆具足 無相無所著 不求余果報 唯愿與眾生 速得無上道 是故汝今日 修行勤聽受 未來必定得 無上三菩提
佛告舍利弗。若菩薩成就四法當得陀羅尼。云何為四。不樂愛慾。不嫉妒。於一切眾生能捨一切。日夜思惟諸法無有惱恚。舍利弗若菩薩成就此四法得此陀羅尼。爾時世尊說此祇夜。
愛慾嫉妒 是魔王法 當入地獄 行人應舍 財法二種 以施眾生 日夜思惟 不起惱恚 若能如是 得陀羅尼
複次舍利弗。若菩薩成就四法得此陀羅尼。何等為四。修阿蘭若行。持深法忍。不樂利養名聞。所受之物一切能捨乃至身命菩薩成就此四法得陀羅尼。佛說此祇夜。
修行阿蘭若 善人所讚歎 身心寂不動 常住于林中 燒頭不放逸 藥起深法忍 名聞及利養 一切無所著 清凈無染心 以求無上道 能捨諸所重 妻子及身命 不生悔吝心 終當歸磨滅 菩薩勤精進 修上四種行 如上陀羅尼 不久必能得
複次舍利弗。若菩薩成就四法得此陀羅尼。云何為四。入八字義云何八字。婆字入一切諸法
【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本： 了知十方，諸佛所說的法， 受持陀羅尼（Dharani，總持、真言），都能得到果報的喜樂。 這樣的人必定有力量，清凈諸佛的國土， 光明和相好（lakshana，佛的三十二相和八十種好），一切事情都具足。 沒有執著，沒有追求，不求其他的果報， 只願與眾生，迅速證得無上道。 所以你今天，修行要勤奮聽受， 未來必定能得到，無上三菩提（anuttara-samyak-sambodhi，無上正等正覺）。
佛告訴舍利弗（Sariputra，智慧第一的佛陀弟子）：如果菩薩成就四種法，就能得到陀羅尼。什麼是四種法？不貪戀愛慾，不嫉妒，對於一切眾生能夠捨棄一切，日夜思惟諸法而沒有惱怒怨恨。舍利弗，如果菩薩成就這四種法，就能得到這個陀羅尼。當時，世尊說了這段偈頌：
愛慾和嫉妒，是魔王（Mara）的法則，應當墮入地獄， 修行人應當捨棄，財物和佛法兩種，用來佈施給眾生， 日夜思惟，不起惱怒怨恨，如果能夠這樣， 就能得到陀羅尼。
再次，舍利弗，如果菩薩成就四種法，就能得到這個陀羅尼。什麼是四種法？修習阿蘭若（aranya，寂靜處）行，持有甚深法忍，不貪戀利養名聞，所接受的物品一切都能捨棄，乃至身命也能捨棄。菩薩成就這四種法，就能得到陀羅尼。佛說了這段偈頌：
修行阿蘭若，是善人所讚歎的， 身心寂靜不動搖，常住在林中。 即使燒頭也不放逸，藥能生起甚深法忍， 名聞和利養，一切都沒有執著。 清凈沒有染污的心，用來求取無上道， 能夠捨棄一切所珍重的，妻子以及身命。 不生起後悔吝惜的心，終將歸於磨滅， 菩薩勤奮精進，修習以上四種行， 像這樣的陀羅尼，不久必定能夠得到。
再次，舍利弗，如果菩薩成就四種法，就能得到這個陀羅尼。什麼是四種法？進入八字義。什麼是八字？婆字入一切諸法。
【English Translation】 English version: Knowing the ten directions, the Dharma spoken by all Buddhas, Receiving and upholding Dharani (total retention, mantra), one can obtain the joy of the fruit. Such a person will surely have the power to purify the Buddha lands, Light and auspicious marks (lakshana, the thirty-two major marks and eighty minor marks of a Buddha), all things are complete. Without attachment, without seeking, not seeking other rewards, Only wishing to quickly attain the unsurpassed path with all sentient beings. Therefore, you should diligently listen and receive the teachings today, In the future, you will surely attain Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (unsurpassed perfect enlightenment).
The Buddha told Sariputra (the foremost disciple in wisdom): If a Bodhisattva accomplishes four Dharmas, he will obtain Dharani. What are the four? Not delighting in love and desire, not being jealous, being able to give up everything for all sentient beings, and contemplating all Dharmas day and night without anger or resentment. Sariputra, if a Bodhisattva accomplishes these four Dharmas, he will obtain this Dharani. At that time, the World Honored One spoke this verse:
Love, desire, and jealousy are the laws of Mara (the demon king), one should fall into hell, Practitioners should give up both wealth and Dharma to give to sentient beings, Contemplating day and night, without anger or resentment, if one can do this, One can obtain Dharani.
Again, Sariputra, if a Bodhisattva accomplishes four Dharmas, he will obtain this Dharani. What are the four? Practicing Aranya (a quiet place) practice, holding deep Dharma forbearance, not delighting in profit, offerings, and fame, and being able to give up everything received, even one's own life. A Bodhisattva who accomplishes these four Dharmas will obtain Dharani. The Buddha spoke this verse:
Practicing Aranya is praised by virtuous people, The body and mind are still and unmoving, always dwelling in the forest. Even if burning the head, one is not negligent, medicine can give rise to deep Dharma forbearance, Fame and profit, offerings, one has no attachment to anything. A pure and undefiled mind is used to seek the unsurpassed path, One can give up all that is cherished, wife, children, and even one's own life. Not giving rise to regret or stinginess, one will eventually return to annihilation, Bodhisattvas diligently practice, cultivating the above four practices, Such Dharani, one will surely be able to obtain soon.
Again, Sariputra, if a Bodhisattva accomplishes four Dharmas, he will obtain this Dharani. What are the four? Entering the meaning of the eight letters. What are the eight letters? The letter 'bha' enters all Dharmas.

無我義：『羅』字代表證入相好（佛的莊嚴身相）和無相好（超越一切相的法身）的法身之義。 『娑』字代表證入兩種意義：愚人的法和智人的法。 『阇』字代表證入生、老、病、死，以及不生、不老、不病、不死、不生不滅的意義。 『舸』字代表證入度脫業和果報的意義。 『他』字代表證入持誦陀羅尼之法，度脫空、無相、無作的法界之義。 『沙』字代表奢摩他（止）和毗婆舍那（觀）。奢摩他和毗婆舍那，代表證入如實知見一切法的意義。 『屣』字代表證入一切諸法念念生滅，不盡不破，本來寂靜的道理。這八個字的意義是可以理解和證入的。這稱為初入義。將此陀羅尼法的總名書寫下來，應當受持，這是第二入義。此法的總名應當每半月誦憶一次，這是第三入義。菩薩應當以此陀羅尼教化讚歎他人，令他人歡喜，這是第四入義。舍利弗（佛陀的弟子），通過這四種方法，能令菩薩得到此陀羅尼。佛陀說了這段偈頌： 書寫及受持，思惟上八字，半月常習誦，教化諸眾生，得近無上道，最勝智慧處，常見諸如來，亦聞說妙法。 若有諸菩薩，受持此陀羅尼，能獲得四種功德，是哪四種呢？十方諸佛世尊常常護念他；不被魔王所障礙；身口意的惡業全部滅除；獲得無盡的樂說辯才。舍利弗，若有菩薩受持此陀羅尼，就能獲得這四種功德。佛陀說了這段偈頌： 有諸佛護念，眾魔不能沮，三惡業消滅，樂說辯無邊。 這時，佛陀告訴舍利弗：在過去無量阿僧祇劫之前，那時有一尊佛，名為寶吉光王如來（如來的十個稱號之一），應供（值得供養），正遍知（完全覺悟者），十號具足，出現於世間教化眾生。此佛滅度后，有一位轉輪聖王（統治世界的理想君王），名為持光明，七寶具足。這位國王有一個兒子，名為不可思議功德吉，年十六歲。他在佛陀滅度后聽說了這個陀羅尼，立即在七

The meaning of 'no self'. The syllable 'Ra' enters into the meaning of the Dharmakaya (the body of the Dharma, the ultimate reality) with both auspicious marks (the Buddha's physical perfections) and without auspicious marks (transcending all forms). The syllable 'Sa' enters into two meanings: the Dharma of the foolish and the Dharma of the wise. The syllable 'Ja' enters into the meaning of birth, old age, sickness, and death, as well as non-birth, non-old age, non-sickness, non-death, non-arising, and non-ceasing. The syllable 'Ga' enters into the meaning of deliverance from the retribution of karma. The syllable 'Ta' enters into the meaning of upholding the Dharani Dharma, delivering the empty, signless, and uncreated Dharmadhatu (the realm of Dharma). The syllable 'Sha' represents Shamatha (tranquility) and Vipashyana (insight). Shamatha and Vipashyana enter into the meaning of truly seeing all Dharmas as they are. The syllable 'Shri' enters into the understanding that all Dharmas arise and cease in every moment, without exhaustion or destruction, and are originally tranquil. The meaning of these eight syllables can be understood and entered into. This is called the 'first entry'. After writing down the general name of this Dharani Dharma, one should uphold it; this is the 'second entry'. The general name of this Dharma should be recited and remembered every half month; this is the 'third entry'. Bodhisattvas should use this Dharani to teach and praise others, making them happy; this is the 'fourth entry'. Shariputra (Buddha's disciple), through these four methods, can enable Bodhisattvas to obtain this Dharani. The Buddha spoke this Gatha (verse): 'Writing and upholding, contemplating the above eight syllables, constantly practicing recitation every half month, teaching and transforming all beings, one will get close to the unsurpassed path, the place of supreme wisdom, constantly see all the Tathagatas (one of the titles of a Buddha), and also hear the wonderful Dharma being preached.' 'If there are Bodhisattvas who uphold this Dharani, they will obtain four kinds of merits. What are the four? They are constantly protected and念 by all the Buddhas and World Honored Ones in the ten directions; they will not be obstructed by the Mara kings (demons); the evil deeds of body, speech, and mind will all be extinguished; and they will obtain endless eloquence. Shariputra, if there are Bodhisattvas who uphold this Dharani, they will obtain these four kinds of merits.' The Buddha spoke this Gatha: 'Being protected and念 by all the Buddhas, the眾魔 cannot obstruct, the three evil karmas are extinguished, and the joy of eloquence is boundless.' At that time, the Buddha told Shariputra: 'In the past, countless Asamkhya (incalculable) kalpas (eons) ago, there was a Buddha named Bao Ji Guang Wang Tathagata (one of the titles of a Buddha), Arhat (worthy of offerings), Samyak-sambuddha (perfectly enlightened), complete with the ten titles, who appeared in the world to teach and transform beings. After this Buddha passed away, there was a Chakravartin (wheel-turning king, an ideal ruler) named Chi Guang Ming, complete with the seven treasures. This king had a son named Bu Ke Si Yi Gong De Ji, who was sixteen years old. After the Buddha passed away, he heard about this Dharani and immediately in the seven'
萬世中不睡眠懈怠。七萬世中不貪王位。不惜身命及余財物。七萬世中未曾寢臥一向坐禪。常聞九十億萬那由他諸佛所說法。既聞法已佛記出家。過九十萬世得陀羅尼名取無邊門。得已為眾生說於一生中。教化八十億百千萬那由他眾生令住不退地。當得阿耨多羅三藐三菩提。是時眾中有長者子名曰月蓋。從彼聞說取無邊門陀羅尼。聞已隨喜。以隨喜功德為九十億萬佛之所授記。汝于受持陀羅尼中最為第一。一切眾生聞汝所說悉皆愛樂。諸有問難無能壞者。汝于來世過三阿僧祇劫。教化諸眾生皆得阿耨多羅三藐三菩提。舍利弗于汝意云何。彼時不可思議功德吉王子。豈異人乎即無量壽佛是。長者子月蓋然燈佛是。舍利弗我昔及諸菩薩。聞說此陀羅尼聞已隨喜。以此善根四百萬劫不生惡趣。是故舍利弗若菩薩摩訶薩。樂速得菩提。當隨喜此取無邊門陀羅尼及勤精進。何以故菩薩成就住不退地。當得三菩提故。何況有人書寫讀誦受持解說。唯除諸佛無能說此功德邊際。佛說此祇夜。
過去無數劫 有寶吉如來 出世化眾生 有無量利益 彼佛涅槃后 有轉輪聖王 子名功德吉 年始十六歲 于如來滅后 聞說陀羅尼 即於七萬世 無睡眠懈怠 不貪著財物 王位及身命 聞九十億萬 那
【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本 在無數世代中，他不睡眠懈怠。在七萬世代中，他不貪戀王位，不吝惜身命以及其他財物。在七萬世代中，他未曾躺臥，一直坐禪。他常常聽聞九十億萬那由他（nayuta，數量單位，意為極多）諸佛所說的法。聽聞佛法后，佛為他授記，預言他將出家。經過九十萬世，他得到一種陀羅尼（dharani，總持、真言），名為『取無邊門』。得到此陀羅尼后，他為眾生宣說，在一生中教化八十億百千萬那由他眾生，使他們安住于不退轉之地。他將證得阿耨多羅三藐三菩提（anuttara-samyak-sambodhi，無上正等正覺）。 當時，大眾中有一位長者之子，名叫月蓋。他從那位菩薩那裡聽聞了『取無邊門』陀羅尼，聽聞後心生隨喜。憑藉這隨喜的功德，他被九十億萬佛所授記，預言說：『你在受持陀羅尼中最為第一，一切眾生聽聞你所說的法都非常喜愛。所有向你提出疑問和辯難的人，沒有能夠駁倒你的。你在未來世，經過三個阿僧祇劫（asamkhya kalpa，無數大劫），教化諸眾生，使他們都證得阿耨多羅三藐三菩提。』 舍利弗（Sariputra，佛陀十大弟子之一），你認為如何？那時的不可思議功德吉王子，難道是別人嗎？他就是無量壽佛（Amitabha Buddha）。長者子月蓋就是然燈佛（Dipankara Buddha）。舍利弗，我過去以及諸位菩薩，聽聞此陀羅尼，聽聞後心生隨喜。憑藉這善根，四百萬劫不墮入惡趣。因此，舍利弗，如果菩薩摩訶薩（bodhisattva-mahasattva，大菩薩）希望迅速證得菩提（bodhi，覺悟），應當隨喜此『取無邊門』陀羅尼，並且勤奮精進。為什麼呢？因為菩薩成就安住于不退轉之地，將證得三菩提（tri-bodhi，三種覺悟）的緣故。更何況有人書寫、讀誦、受持、解說此陀羅尼呢？除了諸佛，沒有人能夠說盡此功德的邊際。』佛說了這段偈頌： 『過去無數劫，有寶吉如來（Ratnakara Buddha），出世教化眾生，帶來無量利益。彼佛涅槃后，有轉輪聖王（chakravartin），子名功德吉，年始十六歲。于如來滅后，聞說陀羅尼，即於七萬世，無睡眠懈怠，不貪著財物，王位及身命。聞九十億萬，那由他諸佛。』
【English Translation】 English version Throughout countless lifetimes, he did not sleep or slacken. In seventy thousand lifetimes, he did not covet the throne, nor did he begrudge his life and other possessions. In seventy thousand lifetimes, he never lay down, always sitting in meditation. He constantly heard the Dharma spoken by ninety billion nayutas (nayuta, a unit of quantity meaning extremely many) of Buddhas. Having heard the Dharma, the Buddha prophesied his future Buddhahood. After ninety hundred thousand lifetimes, he obtained a dharani (dharani, a mnemonic device, a mantra) called 'The Gate of Unbounded Acquisition'. Having obtained this dharani, he proclaimed it to sentient beings, and in one lifetime, he taught eighty billion hundred million nayutas of sentient beings, causing them to dwell in the stage of non-retrogression. He will attain Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (anuttara-samyak-sambodhi, unsurpassed perfect enlightenment). At that time, among the assembly was a son of a wealthy man named Moon Canopy. He heard the 'Gate of Unbounded Acquisition' dharani from that Bodhisattva, and upon hearing it, he rejoiced. By virtue of this rejoicing, he was prophesied by ninety billion Buddhas, who said: 'You are the foremost in upholding dharanis, and all sentient beings who hear your teachings will love them. No one who questions or challenges you will be able to refute you. In a future life, after three asamkhya kalpas (asamkhya kalpa, countless great eons), you will teach all sentient beings, causing them all to attain Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi.' Sariputra (Sariputra, one of the ten great disciples of the Buddha), what do you think? Was the Prince of Inconceivable Meritorious Fortune at that time someone else? He is Amitabha Buddha (Amitabha Buddha). The son of the wealthy man, Moon Canopy, is Dipankara Buddha (Dipankara Buddha). Sariputra, in the past, I and the Bodhisattvas heard this dharani, and upon hearing it, we rejoiced. By virtue of this good root, we will not be reborn in evil realms for four million kalpas. Therefore, Sariputra, if a Bodhisattva-Mahasattva (bodhisattva-mahasattva, great bodhisattva) wishes to quickly attain Bodhi (bodhi, enlightenment), they should rejoice in this 'Gate of Unbounded Acquisition' dharani and diligently strive forward. Why? Because the Bodhisattva achieves dwelling in the stage of non-retrogression and will attain the three Bodhis (tri-bodhi, three kinds of enlightenment). How much more so for someone who writes, recites, upholds, and explains this dharani? Except for the Buddhas, no one can describe the extent of these merits.' The Buddha spoke this verse: 『In the past, countless kalpas ago, there was a Tathagata named Ratnakara Buddha (Ratnakara Buddha), who appeared in the world to teach sentient beings, bringing immeasurable benefits. After that Buddha entered Nirvana, there was a Chakravartin (chakravartin, wheel-turning king), whose son was named Meritorious Fortune, and he was sixteen years old. After the Tathagata passed away, he heard this dharani, and for seventy thousand lifetimes, he was without sleep or sloth, not greedy for wealth, the throne, or his own life. He heard ninety billion nayutas of Buddhas.』

【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本 由其他諸佛所說的微妙法門，如果一心能夠聽受，如來就會為他授記，在超過九十萬世之後，能夠獲得陀羅尼法（Dharani-法門總持），名為『取無邊門』。得到之後為人演說，利益無數眾生，都讓他們安住于不退轉的無上三菩提（Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi-無上正等正覺）。 長者子月蓋，聽聞了陀羅尼（Dharani）之後，生起了隨喜的功德，諸佛為他授記：『你接受陀羅尼（Dharani），這是最為第一的。如果為他人演說，沒有不愛樂的。如果有人提出疑問，沒有人能夠破壞。你在未來世，經過三僧祇劫（asamkhya kalpa-無數大劫），所教化的眾生，都將獲得無上道。』 長者子月蓋，就是然燈如來（Dipankara Buddha）；先前說法之法師，即是無量壽佛（Amitabha Buddha）。我和諸位菩薩，過去聽聞此陀羅尼（Dharani），在四百萬劫中，不生於各種惡趣。 菩薩如果想要獲得無上遍知之道，應當勤奮精進，隨喜陀羅尼（Dharani）。為什麼這麼說呢？因為能夠安住于不退轉的境界。如果能夠隨喜，功德就已經如此之大，更何況是書寫、讀誦、解說其義理的人呢？ 假設有人用七寶裝滿恒河沙數的世界，如此佈施的福德，也不可與隨喜陀羅尼（Dharani）的功德相比。因此，有智慧的人，應當勤奮精進，聽受陀羅尼（Dharani），以求無上道。 舍利弗（Sariputra），如果菩薩受持此陀羅尼（Dharani），有八位夜叉（Yaksa）住在雪山，日夜守護，為他增長壽命。這八位夜叉（Yaksa）是：勇猛夜叉（Valiant Yaksa），堅固夜叉（Firm Yaksa），自在夜叉（Free Yaksa），那羅延力夜叉（Narayana-strength Yaksa），法用夜叉（Dharma-application Yaksa），不可系夜叉（Unrestrainable Yaksa），曲齒夜叉（Crooked-teeth Yaksa），善肩夜叉（Good-shouldered Yaksa）。舍利弗（Sariputra），這八位夜叉（Yaksa）常常守護那些受持陀羅尼（Dharani）的人。如果能清凈洗浴，穿上新染的衣服，經常習於經行，對於一切眾生不生害心，經常思惟此總持法，這些夜叉（Yaksa）會迅速前來守護。還有八位……
【English Translation】 English version The wonderful Dharma doors spoken by other Buddhas, if one can listen and receive with a focused mind, the Tathagata (如來) will predict that after more than nine hundred thousand lifetimes, one will obtain the Dharani (陀羅尼-mantra) method called 'Grasping the Boundless Door'. After obtaining it, one speaks it for others, benefiting countless beings, enabling them all to dwell in the irreversible Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (無上三菩提- unsurpassed perfect enlightenment). The son of the elder, Moon-Cover, upon hearing the Dharani (陀羅尼), arose with the merit of rejoicing. The Buddhas predicted for him: 'You receive the Dharani (陀羅尼), this is the most excellent. If you speak it for others, there will be none who do not love and rejoice in it. If people have questions, none will be able to refute it. In the future, after three asamkhya kalpas (僧祇劫- countless eons), the beings you convert will all attain the unsurpassed path.' The son of the elder, Moon-Cover, is Dipankara Buddha (然燈如來); the Dharma master who previously spoke the Dharma is Amitabha Buddha (無量壽佛). I and the Bodhisattvas, in the past, upon hearing this Dharani (陀羅尼), for four million kalpas, were not born in any of the evil realms. If a Bodhisattva wishes to attain the unsurpassed, all-knowing path, they should diligently practice and rejoice in the Dharani (陀羅尼). Why is this so? Because they can dwell in the state of non-retrogression. If one can rejoice, the merit is already so great, how much more so for those who write, recite, and explain its meaning? Suppose one were to fill countless worlds like the sands of the Ganges River with the seven treasures, the merit of such giving cannot be compared to the merit of rejoicing in the Dharani (陀羅尼). Therefore, wise people should diligently practice, listen to and receive the Dharani (陀羅尼), in order to seek the unsurpassed path. Sariputra (舍利弗), if a Bodhisattva receives and upholds this Dharani (陀羅尼), there are eight Yakshas (夜叉-demi-gods) dwelling in the Snow Mountains, guarding him day and night to increase his lifespan. Who are the eight? Valiant Yaksha (勇猛夜叉), Firm Yaksha (堅固夜叉), Free Yaksha (自在夜叉), Narayana-strength Yaksha (那羅延力夜叉), Dharma-application Yaksha (法用夜叉), Unrestrainable Yaksha (不可系夜叉), Crooked-teeth Yaksha (曲齒夜叉), Good-shouldered Yaksha (善肩夜叉). Sariputra (舍利弗), these eight Yakshas (夜叉) constantly guard those who receive and uphold the Dharani (陀羅尼). If one bathes cleanly, wears newly dyed clothes, constantly practices walking meditation, does not generate harmful thoughts towards all beings, and constantly contemplates this Dharani (陀羅尼), these Yakshas (夜叉) will quickly come to protect him. There are also eight...

舍利弗陀羅尼經
【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本 大菩薩住在欲界天。他們應當守護憶念受持陀羅尼的人。他們的名字是光明菩薩（Guangming Pusa，illuminating bodhisattva），慧光明菩薩（Huiguangming Pusa，wisdom illuminating bodhisattva），日光明菩薩（Riguangming Pusa，sun illuminating bodhisattva），教化菩薩（Jiaohua Pusa，teaching bodhisattva），令一切意滿菩薩（Ling yiqie yiman Pusa，bodhisattva who fulfills all intentions），大自在菩薩（Dazizai Pusa，greatly sovereign bodhisattva），宿王菩薩（Suwang Pusa，constellation king bodhisattva），行意菩薩（Xingyi Pusa，intention in action bodhisattva）。這些菩薩得到陀羅尼。如果菩薩得到陀羅尼，應當成就真實的願望，知恩圖報。菩薩如果持誦陀羅尼，應當得到真實的佛法，並與眾生共同分享。如果菩薩受持陀羅尼，應當具足功德，成就甚深的智慧。佛陀宣說此法時，有三十百千億那由他（nayuta，梵文大數單位）菩薩，得到這取無邊門陀羅尼，不退轉于阿耨多羅三藐三菩提（anuttara-samyak-sambodhi，無上正等正覺）。有八毗婆羅（vibhala，梵文大數單位）數目的諸天及人，發起了阿耨多羅三藐三菩提心（anuttara-samyak-sambodhi-citta，無上正等正覺之心）。 長老舍利弗（Sariputra）稟告佛陀說：『世尊，這部經應該叫什麼名字？我們應該如何受持？』佛陀告訴舍利弗：『這部經名為《取無邊門陀羅尼》（Qu Wubian Men Tuoluoni，Dharani of Attaining the Door of Limitless Access）。你們應當受持。也名為《菩薩一向所行》（Pusa Yixiang Suoxing，The Sole Practice of Bodhisattvas）。你們應當受持。也名為《除一切諸魔》（Chu Yiqie Zhu Mo，Eliminating All Demons）。你們應當受持。也名為《得一切智》（De Yiqie Zhi，Attaining Omniscience）。你們應當受持。』當時，舍利弗以及諸位菩薩，天、龍、夜叉（yaksha，一種守護神）、揵闥婆（gandharva，一種天神，善於音樂）、阿修羅（asura，一種好戰的神）、迦樓羅（garuda，一種巨鳥）、緊那羅（kinnara，一種天神，半人半鳥）、摩睺羅伽（mahoraga，一種巨蟒神）、人以及非人等，聽聞佛陀所說，歡喜奉行。 《舍利弗陀羅尼經》（Sariputra Dharani Sutra）
【English Translation】 English version Great Bodhisattvas dwell in the Desire Realm heavens. They should protect and remember those who receive and uphold the dharani. Their names are Guangming Bodhisattva (Illuminating Bodhisattva), Huiguangming Bodhisattva (Wisdom Illuminating Bodhisattva), Riguangming Bodhisattva (Sun Illuminating Bodhisattva), Jiaohua Bodhisattva (Teaching Bodhisattva), Ling yiqie yiman Bodhisattva (Bodhisattva who fulfills all intentions), Dazizai Bodhisattva (Greatly Sovereign Bodhisattva), Suwang Bodhisattva (Constellation King Bodhisattva), Xingyi Bodhisattva (Intention in Action Bodhisattva). These Bodhisattvas obtain the dharani. If a Bodhisattva obtains the dharani, they should fulfill their true vows and be grateful. If a Bodhisattva recites the dharani, they should obtain the true Dharma and share it with all beings. If a Bodhisattva receives and upholds the dharani, they should be complete with merit and virtue, and achieve profound wisdom. When the Buddha spoke this Dharma, thirty hundred thousand billion nayutas (nayuta, a large number in Sanskrit) of Bodhisattvas obtained this Dharani of Attaining the Door of Limitless Access, and do not regress from Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (unsurpassed perfect enlightenment). Eighty vibhalas (vibhala, a large number in Sanskrit) of gods and humans generated the mind of Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (mind of unsurpassed perfect enlightenment). The elder Sariputra (Sariputra) said to the Buddha: 'World Honored One, what should this sutra be called? How should we receive and uphold it?' The Buddha told Sariputra: 'This sutra is named the 'Dharani of Attaining the Door of Limitless Access' (Qu Wubian Men Tuoluoni). You should receive and uphold it. It is also named 'The Sole Practice of Bodhisattvas' (Pusa Yixiang Suoxing). You should receive and uphold it. It is also named 'Eliminating All Demons' (Chu Yiqie Zhu Mo). You should receive and uphold it. It is also named 'Attaining Omniscience' (De Yiqie Zhi). You should receive and uphold it.' At that time, Sariputra and all the Bodhisattvas, gods, dragons, yakshas (yaksha, a type of guardian deity), gandharvas (gandharva, a type of celestial musician), asuras (asura, a type of warring deity), garudas (garuda, a type of giant bird), kinnaras (kinnara, a type of celestial musician, half-human half-bird), mahoragas (mahoraga, a type of giant serpent deity), humans, and non-humans, hearing what the Buddha said, rejoiced and practiced accordingly. The Sariputra Dharani Sutra (Sariputra Dharani Sutra)
