Ekottaragama (Sanskrit fragments) 24.5.8

24.5.8

「我今此坐處，經歷生死苦，
執御智慧斧，永斷根元栽。
天王來至此，及諸魔怨屬，
復以方便降，令著解脫冠。
今於此樹下，坐於金剛床，
以獲一切智，逮無所礙慧。
我坐此樹下，見生死之苦，
已却死元本，老病永無餘。」

“Here I sit in this place,
Gone beyond the suffering of birth and death.
I picked up the ax of wisdom
And cut forever its root origin.

The god king came to me,
A host of māras did, too.
With the methods to defeat them,
I made them put on the cap of liberation.

Now, here under this tree,
Seated on a diamond seat,
I’ve won omniscience,
Acquired unobstructed wisdom.

Here I sit under this tree,
Observing the suffering of birth and death.
Gone [for me] is the origin of death,
Old age, and illness forever, without remainder.”
