經律異相 5.34

5.34

憍薩羅國。有五百賊。波斯匿王。患其縱暴。遣兵伺捕。得已挑眼。逐著黑闇叢林之下。是諸群賊。已於先佛殖眾德本。既失目已受大苦惱。各作是言。南無佛陀。我時住在祇洹精舍。聞其音聲。即生慈心。時有涼風。吹香山中種種香藥。滿其眼眶。尋還得眼如本不異。諸賊開眼即見如來。住立其前而為說法。賊聞法已。發阿耨多羅三藐三菩提心（出大涅槃經第十四卷大方便佛報恩經第七大同）。

In the kingdom of Kosala, there were five hundred bandits. King Prasenajit, troubled by their unrestrained violence, dispatched soldiers to ambush and capture them. Having caught them, they gouged out their eyes and drove them into a dark, dense forest. These bandits had already planted numerous roots of virtue under past Buddhas. Having lost their eyes, they suffered immense distress, and each said: “Namo Buddhāya!” At that time, I was dwelling in the Jetavana monastery. Hearing their voices, I immediately gave rise to loving-kindness. At that moment, a cool breeze blew various fragrant medicinal herbs from Mount Gandhamādana, filling their eye sockets. Immediately, they regained their eyes, no different from before. The bandits opened their eyes and at once saw the Tathāgata standing before them preaching the Dharma. Having heard the Dharma, the bandits gave rise to the mind of anuttarasamyaksaṃbodhi (derived from the fourteenth fascicle of the Mahāparinirvāṇa-sūtra; largely identical to the seventh fascicle of the Sūtra on the Buddha’s Skill in Means to Repay Kindness).
