成唯識論述記 1.461

1.461

述曰：總結彼非，如文可解。第三文也。此中數論及與勝論各有十八部異執競興，如《別抄》記。自下第二，破勝論義：成劫之末，人壽無量，外道出世，名「嗢露迦」，此云「鵂鶹」，晝避色、聲，匿跡山藪，夜絕視聽，方行乞食。時人謂似鵂鶹，因以名也，謂即獯猴之異名焉。舊云「優婁佉」，訛也。或名「羯拏僕」，「羯拏」云米濟，「僕」翻為食。先為夜遊，驚他稚婦，遂收場碾糠粃之中米濟食之，故以名也。時人號曰「食米濟仙人」。舊云「蹇尼陀」，訛也。亦云「吠世史迦」，此翻為「勝」，造《六句論》，諸論罕匹，故云「勝」也。或勝人所造，故名「勝論」。舊云「衛世師」，或云「鞞世師」，皆訛略也。勝論之師造《勝論》者，名「勝論師」。多年修道，遂獲五通，謂證菩提，便欣入滅。但嗟所悟，未有傳人。愍世有情癡無惠目，乃觀七德，授法令傳。一、生中國；二、父母俱是婆羅門姓；三、有般涅槃性；四、身相具足；五、聰明辨捷；六、性行柔和；七、有大悲心。經無量時無具七者。後住多劫，婆羅痆斯國有婆羅門，名「摩納縛迦」，此云「儒童」。其儒童子名「般遮尸棄」，此言「五頂」。頂髮五旋，頭有五角。

The Commentary states: This concludes generally that they are mistaken, as can be understood from the text. This is the third section. In this context, the Sāṃkhya and the Vaiśeṣika each have eighteen schools with rival tenets that arose in competition, as recorded in the *Biechao*. From here down is the second [major part], refuting the tenets of the Vaiśeṣika: At the end of the kalpa of formation, when human lifespan was immeasurable, a non-Buddhist appeared in the world named Ulūka, which translates as "Owl" (xiuliu). In the daytime he avoided sights and sounds, hiding his traces in mountains and thickets; at night, cutting off visual and auditory contact, he went out to beg for food. People of the time thought he was like an owl and thus named him accordingly, which is an alternative name for a baboon-like ape. The old translation "Youluxie" is corrupt. He was also named Kaṇabhuj. "Kaṇa" means broken rice grains, and "bhuj" is translated as "eating." Previously, wandering at night, he frightened other people's young wives, so he gathered the broken rice grains from amid the chaff in the threshing yards and mills and ate them; hence he was named after this. People of the time called him "the Ṛṣi Who Eats Broken Rice." The old translation "Jiannituo" is corrupt. It is also called Vaiśeṣika; this translates as "Excellence" (sheng). He composed the *Treatise on the Six Categories* (*Ṣaṭpadārtha-śāstra*); few treatises could match it, hence it is called "Excellence." Alternatively, because it was composed by an excellent person, it is named "the Treatise on Excellence" (*Vaiśeṣika-śāstra*). The old transliterations "Weishishi" or "Beishishi" are both corrupt and abbreviated. The masters of the Vaiśeṣika who composed the *Vaiśeṣika-śāstra* are called "Vaiśeṣika masters." Having cultivated the path for many years, he eventually attained the five supernatural knowledges. Thinking he had realized bodhi, he gladly wished to enter nirvāṇa. But he lamented that what he had realized had no successor. Feeling compassion for sentient beings in the world who were foolish and lacked the eye of wisdom, he looked for seven virtues to transmit the Dharma and have it handed down: (1) being born in the Middle Country (Madhyadeśa); (2) both parents belonging to the brāhmaṇa caste; (3) possessing the nature of parinirvāṇa; (4) possessing a complete set of physical marks; (5) being intelligent and articulate; (6) having a gentle and compliant nature and conduct; (7) possessing great compassion. An immeasurable time passed without anyone possessing all seven. Later, after many kalpas, in the country of Vārāṇasī there was a brāhmaṇa named Māṇavaka, which translates as "youth" (rutong). The youth's son was named Pañcaśikha, which means "five crests." He had five whorls of hair on his crown, giving his head five peaks.
