本願藥師經古迹 1.24

1.24

復次曼殊室利！若諸有情慳貪嫉妬、自讚毀他，當墮三惡趣中，無量千歲受諸劇苦。受劇苦已，從彼命終來生人間，作牛馬駝驢恒，被鞭撻飢渴逼惱，又常負重隨路而行；或得為人，生居下賤作人奴婢，受他驅役恒不自在。若昔人中曾聞世尊藥師瑠璃光如來名號，由此善因，今復憶念至心歸依，以佛神力眾苦解脫，諸根聰利智慧多聞，恒求勝法常遇善友，永斷魔羂，破無明穀、竭煩惱河，解脫一切生老病死憂悲苦惱。

"Furthermore, Mañjuśrī, if sentient beings are stingy, greedy, jealous, praise themselves and disparage others, they shall fall into the three evil destinies, enduring extreme sufferings for immeasurable thousands of years. After enduring these extreme sufferings, when their lives end there, they will be reborn among humans as oxen, horses, camels, or donkeys, constantly beaten with whips, tormented by hunger and thirst, and ever carrying heavy burdens as they trudge along the roads. Or, if they manage to attain human form, they will be born into a base and lowly station as slaves or maidservants, driven by others and never independent. If in the past, while among humans, they had once heard the name of the Bhagavat, Bhaiṣajyaguru-vaiḍūryaprabha Tathāgata, by virtue of this wholesome cause, they will now recall it again and take refuge with a sincere mind. Through the Buddha's spiritual power, they will be liberated from all sufferings, their faculties will become sharp and keen, they will be wise and broadly learned, constantly seeking the supreme Dharma and ever meeting good spiritual friends. They will forever sever the snare of Māra, shatter the husk of ignorance, dry up the river of afflictions, and be liberated from all birth, aging, sickness, death, sorrow, lamentation, pain, and anguish.
