6.206

經 「我為汝等說,往昔利他緣,如是菩薩行,成佛因當學。菩薩捨身時,發如是弘誓:『願我身餘骨,來世益眾生。』此是捨身處,七寶窣堵波,以經無量時,遂沈於厚地。由昔本願力,隨緣興濟度,為利於人天,從地而涌出。」

Sūtra: “I have explained to you all / the conditions of benefiting others in the past; / such bodhisattva practices, / being the cause for attaining buddhahood, should be studied. / When the Bodhisattva gave up his body, / he made such a great vow: / ‘May the remaining bones of my body / benefit sentient beings in future ages.’ / This is the place where he gave up his body; / the seven-jewelled stūpa, / having passed through immeasurable time, / consequently sank into the deep earth. / Due to the power of his past original vow, / giving rise to deliverance according to conditions, / in order to benefit humans and devas, / it welled forth from the earth.”
