佛陀安慰悲傷的王子Abhayarajakumara Vatthu

 Abhayarajakumara Vatthu 


Dhammapada Verse 171

Etha passathimam lokam
cittam rajarathupamam
yattha bala visidanti
nattbi sango vijanatam.

Verse 171: Come, look at this world (i.e., the five khandhas), which is like an ornamented royal carriage. Fools flounder in this world of the khandhas, but the wise are not attached to it.

The Story of Prince Abhaya

While residing at the Veluvana monastery, the Buddha uttered Verse (71) of this book, with reference to Prince Abhaya (Abhayarajakumara).

On one occasion, Prince Abhaya triumphantly returned after suppressing a rebellion at the frontier. King Bimbisara was so pleased with him that for seven days, Abhaya was given the glory and honour of a ruler, together with a dancing girl to entertain him. On the last day, while the dancer was entertaining the prince and his company in the garden, she had a severe stroke; she collapsed and died on the spot. The prince was shocked and very much distressed. Sorrowfully, he went to the Buddha to find solace. To him the Buddha said, "O prince, the tears you have shed all through the round of rebirths cannot be measured. This world of aggregates (i.e., khandhas) is the place where fools flounder."

Then the Buddha spoke in verse as follows:

Verse 171: Come, look at this world (i.e., the five khandhas), which is like an ornamented royal carriage. Fools flounder in this world of the khandhas, but the wise are not attached to it.

佛陀安慰悲傷的王子


世間如國王華麗的車乘，愚癡的人沈緬其中，智者則不執著。 (偈 171)


　　阿婆耶王子平定邊境的叛亂後，凱旋歸來。頻婆裟羅王非常高興，恩准他在七日內享受君王般的恩寵和榮耀，同時特地派一位女舞者加以慰勞。第七天，當這女舞者正在花園娛樂王子和他同伴時，突然心臟病發，當場倒場死亡。王子受到驚嚇，感到十分沮喪。他非常哀傷地前去面見佛陀，尋求佛陀的安慰。佛陀告誡他：「王子，你累世以來所流的淚無可計量，愚癡的人才會深深陷入世間五蘊(註)之中。」


（註：「五蘊」根據佛陀的說法－－眾生由五蘊組成：色、受、想、行、識。色由各種力量和性質組成，心也有五十二種心理狀態，當中的受和想兩種心理狀態獨立出來，為五蘊之一，甚餘的五十種心理狀態通稱為「行」。

1. 任何來此聚會的眾生，無論是住在地上或天空的，但願一切眾生都快樂，願他們細心聆聽我說。

2. 因此一切眾生請諦聽，應向眾人類散播慈愛，他們日夜來供養你們，故應精勤地保護他們。

3. 無論在這世間或其他世間(這是指天界、梵天界或其它世界系)的任何財寶，或在天界的任何殊勝珠寶，都沒有和如來(佛陀)同等的。在佛陀裡有此殊勝寶。以此真實語願得安樂。

4. 寧靜的釋迦牟尼已徹悟滅盡、離欲、不死與殊勝。沒有任何東西能和法同等。在法裡有此殊勝寶。以此真實語願得安樂。

5. 至上佛所讚歎的清淨被稱為無間隔的􏰈。找不到和此􏰈同等的東西。在法裡有此殊勝寶。以此真實語願得安樂。

6. 具德者讚歎的八種人組成四雙，他們這些應供者是如來的弟子。布施給他們會帶來大果報。在僧團裡有此殊勝寶。以此真實語願得安樂。

7. 以穩固的心透徹地修行，在喬達摩(佛)的教法裡不再有貪欲，他們已證應證之法。進入了不死，他們輕易地享受所證悟的寧靜。在僧團裡有此殊勝寶。以此真實語願得安樂。

8. 正如深置地裡的柱子不能被四風動搖，我說，已經徹見聖諦的善士也是如此。在僧團裡有此殊勝寶。以此真實語願得安樂。

9. 清楚地觀照由擁有深奧智慧者善巧教導之聖諦的人，無論他們多麼放逸，也不會有第八次投生。在僧團裡有此殊勝寶。以此真實語願得安樂。

10. 對於證得知見者，有三法已被他斷除，即身見、疑與如果他有的戒禁取見。他已完全解脫了四惡道，絕對不會造六種大惡。在僧團裡有此殊勝寶。以此真實語願得安樂。

11. 無論他透􏰉過身或口或意所造的任何惡業，他都不會覆藏它，所謂見道者絕不會這麼做。在僧團裡有此殊勝寶。 以此真實語願得安樂。

12. 佛陀所教、導向涅槃、帶來最高等利益的至上法，就像夏天第一個月的樹林盛開著花。在佛陀裡有此殊勝寶。 以此真實語願得安樂。

13. 至上者、知至上者、給予至上者、帶來至上者教導無比至上法。在佛陀裡有此殊勝寶。以此真實語願得安樂。

14. 舊的已滅，新的不再生起，他們的心不執著未來生，有的種子已滅，他們不再生起對生命的慾望。那些智者像燈(滅那樣)熄滅。在僧團裡有此殊勝寶。以此真實語願得安樂。

15. 任何來此聚會的眾生，無論是住在地上或天空的，禮敬 人天尊敬的如來佛，願得安樂。
