經律異相 41.13

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [41.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2121.41.13)

時婆羅門從佛受偈。還家至門。先白大眾。聽我所說。然後誦偈如上。其子愧怖。即抱其父還將入家。摩身洗浴覆以衣被。立為家主。時婆羅門作是念。我今得勝族姓是沙門恩。我經所說。若為師者如師供養。我今持上妙衣。至世尊所面前問訊白佛言。願受此衣。哀愍我故。世尊即受。更說種種法。示教照喜（出佛為老婆羅門說偈經）。

> The brāhmaṇa received the verse from the Buddha. Returning home, when he reached the gate, he first addressed the great assembly, "Listen to what I say!" and then recited the verse as above. His son was ashamed and frightened. He immediately embraced his father, brought him back into the house, rubbed his body, bathed him, covered him with clothes and blankets, and established him as the master of the house. The brāhmaṇa then thought, "That I have now attained preeminence in my noble clan is due to the grace of the śramaṇa. As our scripture says, 'If one is a teacher, one should make offerings to him as to a teacher.' I will now take supreme, fine robes, go to the Bhagavat's place, greet him face to face, and say to the Buddha, 'May you accept these robes out of pity for me.'" The Bhagavat then accepted them, and further expounded various teachings, demonstrating, instructing, clarifying, and gladdening him (extracted from the Sūtra on the Buddha Reciting a Verse for the Old Brāhmaṇa).
