仁王般若經疏 3.30

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [3.30](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1707.3.30)

「眾中即告九百九十九王言：『就命時到，人人皆應誦過去七佛仁王問般若波羅蜜經中偈句。』時斑足王問諸王言：『皆誦何法？』時普明王即以上偈答王。王聞是法，得空三昧，九百九十九王亦聞法已皆證三空門定。時斑足王極大歡喜，告諸王言：『我為外道邪師所誤，非君等過。汝可還本國，各各請法師講說般若波羅蜜名味句。』時斑足王以國付弟，出家為道，證無生法忍。如《十王地》中說。五千國王常誦是經，現世生報。」

> “In the midst of the assembly, he then addressed the nine hundred and ninety-nine kings, saying: ‘The time to meet death has arrived. Every person should chant the lines of verse from the Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra of the Benevolent Kings' Questions of the Past Seven Buddhas.’ At that time, King Kalmāṣapāda asked the kings, saying: ‘What Dharma are you all chanting?’ At that time, King Samantaprabhā then replied to the king with the above verses. When the king heard this Dharma, he attained the emptiness samādhi; having also heard the Dharma, the nine hundred and ninety-nine kings all realized the samādhis of the three gates to emptiness. At that time, King Kalmāṣapāda rejoiced exceedingly and addressed the kings, saying: ‘I was misled by a heretical master of an outer path; it was not you gentlemen's fault. You may return to your home countries, and each invite Dharma masters to expound the names, phrases, and syllables of the prajñāpāramitā.’ At that time, King Kalmāṣapāda entrusted the kingdom to his younger brother, left home to practice the Path, and realized the anutpattika-dharma-kṣānti. As is spoken of in the Daśabhūmika of the Ten Kings, five thousand kings constantly chanted this sūtra and obtained retribution in this present life.”
