經律異相 23.8

23.8

俱薩羅國。波斯匿王。聞跋陀迦毘羅出家。即請入宮。夏四月安居共止一處。王到園中。語守門人言。汝好守門。莫令是比丘尼出。守門人作是念。是比丘尼樂住不走。時守門人有餘因緣。比丘尼著夫人被服從門而出。遙到祇桓。聽佛說法。佛遙見言。善來跋陀迦毘羅。即失夫人被服。頭髮自落袈裟著身作比丘尼。到佛所頭面禮佛。佛為說四如意足力。時比丘尼得神足力。是時王聞跋陀迦毘羅女走去。便將兵眾圍遶比丘眾。及圍遶比丘尼坊。是比丘尼便飛虛空。王仰看。即生悔心。我云何乃污阿羅漢比丘尼。心悶躄地向比丘尼悔過。寺中比丘尼驅令出去。答曰。我無愛欲心。諸比丘尼云。汝夏四月共王殿中。云何無愛。以事白佛。佛知故問。是比丘尼。汝實受細滑不。答言。世尊我云何當受。我覺是細滑如熱鐵入身。佛言。汝若無受細滑心無罪（出十誦律善誦卷第二）。

In the kingdom of Kosala, King Prasenajit heard that Bhadrā Kapilā had left the household, and immediately invited her into the palace to spend the four months of the summer retreat residing in the same place. The king went to the garden and said to the gatekeeper: “Guard the gate well; do not allow this bhikṣuṇī to leave.” The gatekeeper thought: “This bhikṣuṇī is pleased to stay and will not flee.” Then the gatekeeper had other business to attend to. The bhikṣuṇī put on the garments of a royal consort and went out through the gate. From afar, she went to the Jetavana to listen to the Buddha preaching the Dharma. Seeing her from afar, the Buddha said: “Welcome, Bhadrā Kapilā!” At once, the consort's garments vanished, her hair fell off of its own accord, kāṣāya robes appeared on her body, and she became a bhikṣuṇī. She approached the Buddha and paid homage with her head to his feet. The Buddha preached to her the powers of the four bases of psychic power, and the bhikṣuṇī attained the power of psychic faculties. At that time, when the king heard that the woman Bhadrā Kapilā had fled, he led troops to surround the assembly of bhikṣus and the bhikṣuṇī convent. The bhikṣuṇī then flew into the sky. Looking up, the king immediately gave rise to remorse, thinking: “How could I have defiled an arhat bhikṣuṇī?” Fainting with distress, he fell to the ground and confessed his error to the bhikṣuṇī. The bhikṣuṇīs in the monastery drove her out. She replied: “I had no lustful desire in my mind.” The bhikṣuṇīs said: “You spent the four months of summer in the king's palace; how could there have been no desire?” They reported the matter to the Buddha. The Buddha, though knowing, intentionally asked: “Bhikṣuṇī, did you truly experience soft and smooth touch?” She replied: “Bhagavat, how could I have received pleasure? I felt that smoothness as though hot iron were entering my body.” The Buddha said: “If your mind did not take pleasure in the smooth touch, there is no transgression.” (Drawn from the Ten Recitation Vinaya, Good Recitation, Fascicle 2)
