1.34
在舍衛國等者,謂我從佛聞乃有其處,即在舍衛祇園聞佛說也。在者住也。如來本住寂光,憐憫眾生故迹住舍衛。梵語舍衛,此翻聞物,謂具足欲塵財寶之物、聞解脫之人故也。
'Dwelling in the country of Śrāvastī', and so forth, means that where I heard it from the Buddha indeed had its location: namely, hearing the Buddha speak in the Jeta Grove in Śrāvastī. 'In' means dwelling. The Tathāgata fundamentally dwells in the Land of Eternally Quiescent Light; out of pity for sentient beings, his trace-body dwelt in Śrāvastī. In Sanskrit, Śrāvastī is translated here as 'fame and goods', meaning it was endowed with the goods of desire-objects and wealth, and with people of fame and liberation.
