如是我聞: Thus I have heard:
一時,佛住王舍城、迦蘭陀竹園。 The Buddha was staying at the Squirrels’ Bamboo Grove of Rājagṛha.
爾時,尊者舍利弗在耆闍崛山。 Venerable Śāriputra was on Mount Gṛdhrakūṭa at the time.
時,有長者子名輸屢那,日日遊行。 There was then a prominent man’s son named Śroṇa who went for walks every day.
到耆闍崛山,詣舍利弗所,頭面禮足,却坐一面。 When he arrived at Mount Gṛdhrakūṭa, Śroṇa visited Venerable Śāriputra there, bowing at his feet and withdrawing to sit to one side.
時,舍利弗告輸屢那: Śāriputra addressed Śroṇa,
「若沙門、婆羅門於色不如實知,色集不如實知,色滅不如實知,色味不如實知,色患不如實知,色離不如實知故⋯ “Suppose ascetics or brahmins don’t truly know form, don’t truly know the formation of form, don’t truly know the cessation of form, don’t truly know the enjoyment of form, don’t truly know the trouble of form, and don’t truly know the escape from form.
不堪能超越色。 [Śroṇa, you should know that these ascetics or brahmins] aren’t capable of going beyond form.
若沙門、婆羅門於受⋯想⋯行⋯識不如實知,識集不如實知,識滅不如實知,識味不如實知,識患不如實知,識離不如實知故。 Suppose ascetics or brahmins don’t truly know feeling … conception … volition … awareness, don’t truly know the formation of awareness, don’t truly know the cessation of awareness, don’t truly know the enjoyment of awareness, don’t truly know the trouble of awareness, and don’t truly know the escape from awareness.
此沙門、婆羅門不堪能超越識。 These ascetics or brahmins aren’t capable of going beyond awareness.
「若沙門、婆羅門於色⋯色集⋯色滅⋯色味⋯色患⋯色離如實知。 “Suppose ascetics or brahmins do truly know form … the formation of form … the cessation of form … the enjoyment of form … the trouble of form … the escape from form.
此沙門、婆羅門堪能超越色。 These ascetics or brahmins are capable of going beyond form.
若沙門、婆羅門於受⋯想⋯行⋯識⋯識集⋯識滅⋯識味⋯識患⋯識離如實知。 Suppose ascetics or brahmins do truly know feeling … conception … volition … awareness … the formation of awareness … the cessation of awareness … the enjoyment of awareness … the trouble of awareness … the escape from awareness.
此沙門、婆羅門堪能超越識。 These ascetics or brahmins are capable of going beyond awareness.
「輸屢那,於汝意云何? “Śroṇa, what do you think?
色為常、為無常耶?」 Is form permanent or impermanent?”
答言: He replied,
「無常。」 “Impermanent.”
「無常者,為苦耶?」 “If something is impermanent, is that painful?”
答言: He replied,
「是苦。」 “It’s painful.”
「輸屢那,若色無常、苦,是變易法。 “Śroṇa, if form is impermanent and painful, it’s subject to change.
聖弟子於中寧有是我、異我、相在不?」 Could a noble disciple rather that be self, different from self, or that either is present in the other?”
答言: He replied,
「不也。」 “No.”
「輸屢那,於汝意云何? “Śroṇa what do you think?
如是受⋯想⋯行⋯識為常、為無常?」 Is feeling … conception … volition … awareness permanent or impermanent?”
答言: He replied,
「無常。」 “Impermanent.”
「若無常者,是苦耶?」 “If something is impermanent, is it painful?”
答言: He replied,
「是苦。」 “It’s painful.”
「輸屢那,若無常、苦,是變易法。 “Śroṇa, if [awareness] is impermanent and painful, it’s subject to change.
聖弟子於中寧有是我、異我、相在不?」 Could a noble disciple rather that be self, different from self, or that either is present in the other?”
答言: He replied,
「不也。」 “No.”
「輸屢那,當知色,若過去、若未來、若現在,若內、若外,若麁、若細,若好、若醜,若遠、若近,於一切色不是我、不異我、不相在。 “Śroṇa, you should know that whatever forms there are, whether past, future, or present, internal or external, crude or fine, beautiful or ugly, or distant or near, all those forms are not self, not different from self, and neither is present in the other.
是名如實知。 This is called truly knowing them.
「輸屢那,受⋯想⋯行⋯識,若過去、若未來、若現在,若內、若外,若麁、若細,若好、若醜,若遠、若近,於一切識不是我、不異我、不相在。 “Śroṇa, whatever feelings … conceptions … volitions … instances of awareness there are, whether past, future, or present, internal or external, crude or fine, beautiful or ugly, or distant or near, all those instances of awareness are not self, not different from self, and neither is present in the other.
是名如實知。 This is called truly knowing them.
「輸屢那,聖弟子於此五受陰正觀非我、非我所。 “Śroṇa, a noble disciple correctly observes these five acquired aggregates as not self and not belonging to self.
如是正觀,於諸世間無所攝受。 Correctly observing them in this way, they gather nothing from the world.
無攝受者,則無所著。 Someone who gathers nothing isn’t attached to anything.
無所著者,自得涅槃: Someone who isn’t attached to anything attains nirvāṇa themselves:
『我生已盡,梵行已立,所作已作。』 ‘My births have been ended, the religious practice has been established, and the task has been accomplished.’
自知不受後有。」 They themselves know they won’t be subject to another existence.”
時,長者子輸屢那聞舍利弗所說歡喜,踊躍。 When Śroṇa heard what Śāriputra taught, he rejoiced and celebrated.
作禮而去。 He then bowed and departed.
