Language

1.52

「如淨琉璃珠,其明如日月;
仁尊處母胎,其母無惱患。
智慧為增益,觀胎如金像;
母懷妊安樂,此諸佛常法。」

“Like a pure beryl gemstone
That’s bright as the sun and moon,
That gentle sage dwelled in his mother’s womb,
And his mother had no illness.

Charles Patton, The Long Discourses (selected sūtras)

Her wisdom was improved,
And she saw he was like a gold statue.
His mother’s pregnancy was comfortable:
This is the way it always is with buddhas.”

Charles Patton, The Long Discourses (selected sūtras)
