金剛般若經贊述 1.40

1.40

言說處者，謂筏蘇顯輕呼度，舊云五天竺者，訛也，今釋顯度者，此云月氏。此五國中多有賢哲，如月照暝，能除炎熱，故以為名也。舊云月支等者，竝非也。其舍衛國者，訛也，應云室羅筏悉底布羅，此云豐德城，謂豐多聞、豐欲境、豐解脫故。此城之主，即是鉢剌摩那侍特王，此云勝軍，即謂中印土之都城之名也。國名憍薩羅，為別恒河南憍薩羅，故以城名標別也。其南憍薩羅國城無有別名號，即以國為名故。祇樹者，即謂誓多太子之林。誓多者，此云戰勝也。給孤獨園者，謂須達多於太子處所買得也。今合標彼，故雙舉之。廣說緣起，如餘疏陳。

Regarding the place where it was spoken: *Fasu* is a light pronunciation for *Indu*. The old term 'Five Indias' (Tianzhu) was an error. Now explaining *Indu*: here it is translated as 'the Moon Clan' (Yuezhi). In these five regions there are many sages and wise ones; like the moon illuminating the darkness, they are able to dispel burning heat, hence it is so named. The old rendering 'Yuezhi' and the like were all incorrect. 'Śrāvastī' was an error; it should be Śrāvastīpura, which means 'City of Abundant Virtue', meaning abundant in extensive learning, abundant in sensual pleasures, and abundant in liberation. The lord of this city was King Prasenajit, here translated as 'Conquering Army' (Shengjun), which is the name of the capital city of Central India. The kingdom was named Kośala; to distinguish it from Kośala south of the Ganges, it is designated by the city's name. The capital city of that Southern Kośala kingdom had no distinct designation and was named after the kingdom itself. 'Jeta's Grove' refers to the forest of Crown Prince Jeta. 'Jeta' is here translated as 'victorious in battle'. 'Anāthapiṇḍada's Park' refers to what Sudatta purchased from the prince. Now, being designated together, both are cited. The extensive narrative of this origin is set forth in other commentaries.
