4. Baka the Brahma 
Thus have I heard. On one occasion the Blessed One was dwelling at Savatthi in Jeta’ s Grove, Anathapindika’s Park. 

Now on that occasion the following evil speculative view had arisen in Baka the Brahma: “This is permanent, this is stable, this is eternal, this is complete, this is imperishable. Indeed, this has not been born, does not age, does not die, does not pass away, does not undergo rebirth; and there is no other escape superior to this.”

Then, having known with his own mind the reflection in Baka the Brahma’s mind, just as quickly as a strong man might extend his drawn-in arm or draw in his extended arm, the Blessed One disappeared from Jeta’s Grove and reappeared in that Brahma-world. 

Baka the Brahma saw the Blessed One coming in the distance and said to him: “Come, dear sir! Welcome, dear sir! It has been a long time, dear sir, since you took the opportunity of coming here. Indeed, dear sir, this is permanent, this is stable, this is eternal, this is complete, this is imperishable. Indeed, this has not been born, does not age, does not die, does not pass away, does not undergo rebirth; and there is no other escape superior to this.” 

When this was said, the Blessed One said to Baka the Brahma: “Alas, sir, Baka the Brahma is immersed in ignorance! Alas, sir, Baka the Brahma is immersed in ignorance, in so far as he will say of what is actually impermanent that it is permanent; and will say of what is actually unstable that it is stable; and will say of what is actually non-eternal that it is eternal; and will say of what is actually incomplete that it is complete; and will say of what is actually perishable that it is imperishable; and will say with reference to (a realm) where one is born and ages and dies and passes away and is reborn, ‘Indeed, this h as not been born, does not age, does not die, does not pass away, does not undergo rebirth’; and will say, when there is another escape superior to this, ‘There is no other escape superior to this.’"

(Baka the Brahma:) 
“We seventy-two, Gotama, were merit-makers; 
Now we wield power, beyond birth and aging. 
This, knowledge-master, is our last Brahmic arising. 
Many are the people who yearn for us.”

(The Blessed One:) 
“The lifespan here is short, not long, 
Though you, Brahma, imagine it is long. I know, 
O Brahma, your lifespan to be 
A hundred thousand nirabbudas.”

(Baka the Brahma:) 
“O Blessed One, (you say): ‘I am the one of infinite vision 
Who has overcome birth, decay, and sorrow.’ 
What was my ancient practice of vow and virtue: 
Tell me this so I might understand.”

(The Blessed One:) 
“You gave drink to many people 
Who were thirsty, afflicted by heat: 
That was your ancient practice of vow and virtue, 
Which I recollect as if just waking up.
When people were abducted at Antelope Bank, 
You released the captives being led away. 
That was your ancient practice of vow and virtue, 
Which I recollect as if just waking up. 
When a ship was seized on the river Ganges 
By a fierce naga longing for human flesh, 
You freed it forcefully by a valiant act: 
That was your ancient practice of vow and virtue, 
Which I recollect as if just waking up. 
I was your apprentice named Kappa; 
You thought him intelligent and devout: 
That was your ancient practice of vow and virtue, 
Which I recollect as if just waking up.”

(Baka the Brahma:) 
“Surely you know this lifespan of mine; 
The others too you know, thus you’re the Buddha. 
Thus this blazing majesty of yours 
Illumines even the Brahma-world.”

〔四〕婆迦梵天
如是我聞。爾時世尊住舍衛城祇樹給孤獨園。
時，又有婆迦梵天，生如是惡見：「此是常，此是恆常。此是常住，此是完全，此是不變之法。何以故，此不衰、不老、不萎、不滅、不生故。由此以上無有其他之出離。」
時，世尊知婆迦梵天心中之所念，猶如力士之伸屈腕、屈伸腕、沒形於祇園、現身於梵天界。
婆迦梵天、見世尊從遠而來。見已，以此白世尊曰：
「友！來！友！善來耶！友！久違！何以來此耶？友！此是常，此是恆常，此是常住，此是完全，此是不變之法。何以故，此是不衰、不老、不萎、不滅、不生故。由此以上無有其他之出離。」
如是言已，世尊告此婆迦梵天曰：「婆迦梵天乃被無明所困惑。婆迦梵天乃被無明所困惑。何以故？以無常者言常，以非恆常者言恆常，以非常住者言常住。以非完全者言完全，以變易之法言不變易之法。以衰、老、萎、滅、生者言不衰、不老、不萎、不滅、不生。由此以上有其他之出離，以言由此以上無有其他之出離故。」
〔婆迦：〕
我等七十二　　　依於功德業
為世統治者　　　超越生與老
以生此梵天　　　是為最後生
我乃通吠陀　　　是故諸眾人
尊崇稱讚我
〔世尊：〕
此生壽是短　　　婆迦思為長
我知梵天壽　　　百年或億年
〔婆迦：〕
世尊以為我　　　是無邊見者
云越老死悲　　　如何以語我
善行古禁戒　　　我願欲知此
〔世尊：〕
汝苦於渴古　　　炎熱於煩惱
予水於諸眾　　　此乃汝古之
善行及禁戒　　　如是我記憶
如眠之醒覺　　　放救耶尼河
兩岸囚眾人　　　令脫捕虜者
此乃汝古之　　　善根及禁戒
如是我記憶　　　如眠之醒覺
於恆伽河流　　　憐愍諸眾人

此乃汝古之　　　善根及禁戒

〔婆迦：〕
汝實知我壽　　　又亦知其他
佛陀如是在　　　若實如是在
汝光輝威力　　　照耀於梵界

3. Brahmadeva 
Thus have I heard. On one occasion the Blessed One was dwelling at Savatthi in Jeta’ s Grove, Anathapindika’s Park. 

Now on that occasion a certain brahmin lady had a son named Brahmadeva who had gone forth from the household life into homelessness under the Blessed One. Then, dwelling alone, withdrawn, diligent, ardent, and resolute, the Venerable Brahmadeva, by realizing it for himself with direct knowledge, in this very life entered and dwelt in that unsurpassed goal of the holy life for the sake of which clansmen rightly go forth from the household life into homelessness. He directly knew: “Destroyed is birth, the holy life has been lived, what had to be done has been done, there is no more coming back to this world.” And the Venerable Brahmadeva became one of the arahants. 

Then, in the morning, the Venerable Brahmadeva dressed and, taking bowl and robe, entered Savatthi for alms. Walking on continuous alms round in Savatthi, he came to his own mother’s residence. Now on that occasion the brahmin lady, the Venerable Brahmadeva’s mother, had been offering a constant oblation to Brahma. 

Then it occurred to Brahma Sahampati: “This brahmin lady, the Venerable Brahmadeva’s mother , has been offering a constant oblation to Brahma. Let me approach her and stir up a sense of urgency in her.” 

Then, just as quickly as a strong man might extend his drawn-in arm or draw in his extended arm, Brahma Sahampati disappeared from the Brahma-world and reappeared in the residence of the Venerable Brahmadeva’s mother. 

Then, standing in the air, Brahma Sahampati addressed the brahmin lady in verse: 
“Far from here, madam, is the Brahma-world 
To which you offer a constant oblation. 
Brahma does not eat such food, lady: 
So why mumble, not knowing the path to Brahma? 
This Brahmadeva, madam, 
Without acquisitions, has surpassed the devas. 
Owning nothing, nourishing no other,
The bhikkhu has entered your house for alms. 
Gift-worthy, knowledge-master, inwardly developed, 
He deserves offerings from humans and devas. 
Having expelled all evil, unsullied, 
Cooled at heart, he comes seeking alms. 
For him there is nothing behind or in front— 
Peaceful, smokeless, untroubled, wishless; 
He has laid down the rod towards frail and firm: 
Let him eat your oblation, the choicest alms. 
A loof from the crowd, with peaceful mind, 
Like a naga he fares, tamed, unstirred. 
A bhikkhu of pure virtue, in mind well released: 
Let him eat your oblation, the choicest alms. 
With confidence in him, free from wavering, 
Present your offering to one who deserves it. 
Having seen a sage who has crossed the flood, 
O madam, make merit leading to future bliss.
With confidence in him, free from wavering, 
She presented her offering to one who deserved it. 
Having seen a sage who has crossed the flood, 
The lady made merit leading to future bliss."

時，尊者梵天清晨，著衣持鉢，於舍衛城乞食，於舍衛城戶戶乞食，近至母家。
其時，尊者梵天之母婆羅門女，常以供牲供梵天。
時，梵天沙巷婆提生如是思念：「此尊者梵天之母婆羅門女，常以供牲供梵天，我當往警覺。」
時，梵天沙巷婆提，猶如力士之伸屈腕、屈伸腕，沒形於梵天界，現身於尊者梵天之母家。
時，梵天沙巷婆提立於空中，對尊者梵天之母婆羅門女唱偈曰：
婆羅門女者　　　汝常為供食
因此離梵天　　　婆羅門女者

而汝何牢騷　　　婆羅門女者

寂靜絕瞋煙　　　無悶亦無欲
於弱於強者　　　無用於暴力

無煩惱魔襲　　　心靜無欲污
如調順象行　　　戒行善圓滿
心解脫比丘　　　令彼以得汝

2. Thus have I heard. On one occasion the Blessed One was dwelling at Uruvela on the bank of the river Neranjara at the foot of the Goatherd’s Banyan Tree shortly after he had become fully enlightened. 

Then, while the Blessed One was alone in seclusion, a reflection arose in his mind thus: “One dwells in suffering if one is without reverence and deference. Now what recluse or brahmin can I honour and respect, on whom can I dwell in dependence?” 

Then it occurred to the Blessed One: “It would be for the sake of fulfilling an unfulfilled aggregate of virtue that I would honour, respect, and dwell in dependence on another recluse or brahmin. However, in this world with its devas, Mara, and Brahma, in this generation with its recluses and brahmins, its devas and humans, I do not see another recluse or brahmin more perfect in virtue than myself, whom I could honour and respect, and on whom I could dwell in dependence. 

“It would be for the sake of fulfilling an unfulfilled aggregate of concentration that I would honour, respect, and dwell in dependence on another recluse or brahmin. However ... I do not see another recluse or brahmin more perfect in concentration than myself….

“It would be for the sake of fulfilling an unfulfilled aggregate of wisdom that I would honour, respect, and dwell in dependence on another recluse or brahmin. However ... I do not see another recluse or brahmin more perfect in wisdom than myself…. 

“It would be for the sake of fulfilling an unfulfilled aggregate of liberation that I would honour, respect, and dwell in dependence on another recluse or brahmin. However ... I do not see another recluse or brahmin more perfect in liberation than myself…. 

“It would be for the sake of fulfilling an unfulfilled aggregate of the knowledge and vision of liberation that I would honour, respect, and dwell in dependence on another recluse or brahmin. However ... I do not see another recluse or brahmin more perfect in the knowledge and vision of liberation than myself, whom I could honour and respect, and on whom I could dwell in dependence.

“Let me then honour, respect, and dwell in dependence on this very Dhamma to which I have fully awakened.” 

Then, having known with his own mind the reflection in the Blessed One’s mind, just as quickly as a strong man might extend his drawn-in arm or draw in his extended arm, Brahma Sahampati disappeared from the Brahma-world and reappeared before the Blessed One. Having arranged his upper robe over one shoulder, he saluted the Blessed One reverentially and said to him: “So it is, Blessed One! So it is, Sublime One! Venerable sir, those who were the Arahants, the Fully Enlightened Ones in the past—those Blessed Ones too honoured, respected, and dwelt in dependence just on the Dhamma itself. Those who will be the Arahants, the Fully Enlightened Ones in the future—those Blessed Ones too will honour, respect, and dwell in dependence just on the Dhamma itself. Let the Blessed One too, who is at present the Arahant, the Fully Enlightened One, honour, respect, and dwell in dependence just on the Dhamma itself.” 

This is what Brahma Sahampati said. Having said this, he further said this: 
“The Buddhas of the past, 
The future Buddhas, 
And he who is the Buddha now, 
Removing the sorrow of many— 
All have dwelt, 
Will dwell, and dwell, 
Revering the true Dhamma: 
This, for the Buddhas, is a natural law.
Therefore one desiring his own good, 
Aspiring for spiritual greatness, 
Should humbly respect the true Dhamma, 
Recollecting the Buddhas’ Teaching.”

時，世尊生如是思惟：「為成就未滿之戒蘊，應尊敬其他沙門、婆羅門而予近住。但我於天界、魔界、梵天界所含之世界。於沙門、婆羅門、人、天所含之眾中，不見如我成就戒者，以尊敬其他沙門、婆羅門而住為成就未滿之定蘊……〔乃至〕……未滿之慧蘊……乃至……未滿之解脫蘊……乃至……未滿之解脫知見蘊，應尊敬其他沙門、婆羅門而近住。但我於天界、魔界、梵天界所含之世界。於沙門，婆羅門、人、天所含之眾中，不見如我成就解脫知見者，以尊敬其他沙門、婆羅門而近住。我寧可對我所悟之法，尊敬此法而予近住。」
時，梵天沙巷婆提於心，知世尊心之思惟，猶如男子力士之伸屈腕、屈伸腕頃，沒於梵天界，現於世尊前。
時，梵天沙巷婆提，偏袒一肩、合掌禮世尊，如是白世尊曰：
「世尊！如是，善逝！如是。世尊！過去之應供、正覺者、世尊亦恭敬、尊重、親近法而住。未來之應供、正覺者、世尊亦恭敬、尊重、親近法而住。今之應供、正覺者、世尊亦恭敬、尊重、親近法而住。」
梵天沙巷婆提說此已。又作此曰：
過去正覺者　　　未來之諸佛
今之正覺者　　　滅眾生憂惱
悉皆敬正法　　　而住今亦住
又未來亦住　　　此諸佛法然
故願自己利　　　以望偉大者
憶念佛之教　　　不無敬正法

(Samyutta Nikaya 1-6-1)  
Chapter 6: Connected Discourses with Brahmas
I. The First Chapter (The Request)
1. Brahma’s Request
Thus have I heard. On one occasion the Blessed One was dwelling at Uruvela on the bank of the river Neranjara at the foot of the Goatherd’s Banyan Tree after he had first become fully enlightened. 

Then, while the Blessed One was alone in seclusion, a reflection arose in his mind thus: “This Dhamma that I have discovered is deep, hard to see, hard to understand, peaceful and sublime, not within the sphere of reasoning, subtle, to be experienced by the wise. But this generation delights in adhesion, takes delight in adhesion, rejoices in adhesion. For such a generation this state is hard to see, that is, specific conditionality, dependent origination. And this state too is hard to see, that is, the stilling of all constructions, the relinquishment of all acquisitions, the destruction of craving, dispassion, cessation, Nibbana. If I were to teach the Dhamma and if others would not understand me, that would be wearisome for me, that would be troublesome.”

Thereupon these astounding verses, not heard before in the past, occurred to the Blessed One: 
“Enough now with teaching this 
That even I found hard to reach; 
This Dhamma is not easily understood 
By those oppressed by lust and hate. 
Those fired by lust, obscured by darkness, 
Will not discern this abstruse Dhamma, 
Deep, hard to see, subtle, 
Going against the stream.” 
As the Blessed One reflected thus, his mind inclined to living at ease, not to teaching the Dhamma.

Then Brahma Sahampati, having known with his own mind the reflection in the Blessed One’s mind, thought: “Alas, the world is lost! Alas, the world is to perish, in that the mind of the Tathagata, the Arahant, the Fully Enlightened One inclines to living at ease, not to teaching the Dhamma.”

Then, just as quickly as a strong man might extend his drawn-in arm or draw in his extended arm, Brahma Sahampati disappeared from the Brahma-world and reappeared before the Blessed One. He arranged his upper robe over one shoulder, knelt down with his right knee on the ground, saluted the Blessed One reverentially, and said to him: “Venerable sir, let the Blessed One teach the Dhamma; let the Sublime One teach the Dhamma. There are beings with little dust in their eyes who are falling away because they do not hear the Dhamma. There will be those who will understand the Dhamma.”

This is what Brahma Sahampati said. Having said this, he further said this: 
“In the past there appeared among the Magadhans
An impure Dhamma devised by those still stained.
Throw open the door to the Deathless! Let them hear 
The Dhamma that the Stainless One discovered. 
Just as one standing on a mountain peak 
Might see below the people all around, 
So, O wise one, universal eye, 
Ascend the palace fashioned of the Dhamma. 
Being yourself free from sorrow, behold the people 
Submerged in sorrow, oppressed by birth and decay. 
Rise up, O hero, victor in battle! 
O caravan leader, debt-free one, 
Wander in the world. Teach the Dhamma, O Blessed One: 
There will be those who will understand.” 

Then the Blessed One, having understood Brahma’s request, out of compassion for beings surveyed the world with the eye of a Buddha. As he did so, the Blessed One saw beings with little dust in their eyes and with much dust in their eyes, with keen faculties and with dull faculties, with good qualities and with bad qualities, easy to teach and difficult to teach, and a few who dwelt seeing blame and fear in the other world. Just as in a pond of blue or red or white lotuses, some lotuses might be born in the water, grow up in the water, and thrive while submerged in the water, without rising up from the water; some lotuses might be born in the water, grow up in the water, and stand at an even level with the water; some lotuses might be born in the water and grow up in the water, but would rise up from the water and stand without being soiled by the water—so too, survey ing the world with the eye of a Buddha, the Blessed One saw beings with little dust in their eyes and with much dust in their eyes, with keen faculties and with dull faculties, with good qualities and with bad qualities, easy to teach and hard to teach, and a few who dwelt seeing blame and fear in the other world. Having seen this, he answered Brahma Sahampati in verse: 
“Open to them are the doors to the Deathless, 
Let those who have ears release faith. 
Foreseeing trouble, O Brahma, I did not speak 
The refined, sublime Dhamma among humankind.”

Then Brahma Sahampati, thinking, “The Blessed One has given his consent (to my request) regarding the teaching of the Dhamma,” paid homage to the Blessed One and disappeared right there.

第六　梵天相應
第一　梵天品
〔一〕勸請
如是我聞。爾時，世尊住優留毘羅尼連禪河邊之阿闍波羅尼俱律陀樹下。時，已成等正覺。
時，世尊獨坐禪思，而起此思惟。
依我所證得此法，甚深難見、難悟。寂靜微妙，超越思念之領域。深妙唯賢者始知。又，此諸人等樂阿賴耶，喜阿賴耶，跳躍阿賴耶。諸人依於樂阿賴耶，喜阿賴耶，跳躍阿賴耶，而難見此理。此理者，即所謂依緣、緣起是。此理亦難見。此理者，即一切行之止靜，一切依之捨離、愛盡、離、滅、涅槃是。我若說法，諸人難了解我所說者，我是應所疲勞而煩擾。
又，此以前未曾有聞之偈，世尊顯示：
艱難我所證　　　今此實難說
敗於欲瞋者　　　難得悟此法
逆世之常流　　　微妙而甚深
微細極難見　　　貪欲之所污
闇蘊所蔽者　　　不得見此法
世尊作如是思惟，即躊躇不說法。
時，梵天沙巷婆提，猶如有力者之伸屈腕，或屈伸腕頃，如是沒於梵天界，現於世尊之前。
時，梵天沙巷婆提偏袒一肩、右膝著地，合掌禮敬，如是白世尊曰：
「世尊！請說法！善逝！請說法！〔世間〕有不少眾生，為眼塵所蔽。彼等不得聞法而衰退。〔世間〕應有法之了解者。」
梵天沙巷婆提白此言已，更唱此言：
於摩揭陀國　　　不淨法垢穢
依此心思惟　　　開此甘露門
依無垢之心　　　今聞悟此法
上立山頂巖　　　如見周諸眾
賢者全眼者　　　卿起慈悲心
立法城宮樓　　　以觀沈悲慘
生老敗諸眾　　　請起立英雄
戰立勝利者　　　無債商隊主
請遊此世間　　　請世尊說法
必有知解者
時，世尊知梵天之勸請，對眾生起哀憐，以佛眼觀世間。
世尊依佛眼觀世間，見眾生眼有蔽多、蔽少，有利根者、鈍根者，有善相者、惡相者，有易教者、難教者，其中或有眾人見來世罪之怖畏而住。猶如於蓮池之青蓮華、黃蓮華、白蓮華。有青蓮華、黃蓮華、白蓮華、生於水中、長於水中、不出水面，沈育於水中。有青蓮華、黃蓮華、白蓮華，生於水中、長於水中，出立於水，不為水所濕。如是世尊，依眼觀世間，見眾生眼有蔽多、蔽少，有利根者、鈍根者，有善相者、惡相者，有易教者、難教者，其中或有諸眾見來世罪之怖畏而住。
見已，以偈答梵天沙巷婆提：
為於彼等眾　　　開啟甘露門
有耳之眾人　　　捨離其他信
梵天我思惑　　　不說微妙法
時，梵天沙巷婆提，願我說法，世尊許允，而禮敬世尊，右繞，於此沒其身形。

10. Vajira 
Setting at Savatthi. Then, in the morning, the bhikkhuni Vajira dressed and, taking bowl and robe, entered Savatthi for alms. When she had walked for alms in Savatthi and had returned from her alms round, after her meal she went to the Blind Men’s Grove for the day’s abiding. Having plunged into the Blind Men’s Grove, she sat down at t he foot of a tree for the day’s abiding. 

Then Mara the Evil One, desiring to arouse fear, trepidation, and terror in the bhikkhuni Vajira, desiring to make her fall away from concentration, approached her and addressed her in verse: 
“By whom has this being been created?
Where is the maker of the being? 
Where has the being arisen? 
Where does the being cease?” 

Then it occurred to the bhikkhuni Vajira: “Now who is this that recited the verse—a human being or a non-human being?” 

Then it occurred to her: “This is Mara the Evil One, who has recited the verse desiring to arouse fear, trepidation, and terror in me, desiring to make me fall away from concentration.” 

Then the bhikkhuni Vajira, having understood, “This is Mara the Evil One,” replied to him in verses: 
“Why now do you assume ‘a being’? 
Måra, have you grasped a view? 
This is a heap of sheer constructions: 
Here no being is found. 
Just as, with an assemblage of parts, 
The word ‘chariot’ is used, 
So, when the aggregates are present, 
There’s the convention ‘a being.’ 
It’s only suffering that comes to be, 
Suffering that stands and falls away. 
Nothing but suffering comes to be, 
Nothing but suffering ceases.”

Then Mara the Evil One, realizing, “The bhikkhuni Vajira knows me,” sad and disappointed, disappeared right there.
