11.27

過去無量僧祇劫 種種布施習檀那
清淨尸羅及羼提 精進坐禪學般若
安樂一切眾生故 備忍種種諸苦辛
宮中六萬后妃嬪 棄捨出家如脫屣
獨處六年修苦行 日食一麻一米麥
精進晝夜不睡眠 身形唯有皮骨在
菩提樹下思惟坐 八十萬眾天魔來
四方上下地及空 八十由旬悉充滿
如是魔軍及眷屬 皆能破壞使歸降
成就無上勝菩提 得證第一義諦果

Throughout immeasurable asaṃkhyeya kalpas in the past, / He practised various forms of giving, training in dāna; / Pure in śīla and kṣānti, / Zealous in seated meditation, he studied prajñā. / For the sake of bringing peace and joy to all sentient beings, / He fully endured all kinds of bitter hardships. / Sixty thousand queens, consorts, and palace ladies within the palace, / He cast aside to leave the household life as easily as casting off worn shoes. / Alone for six years, he cultivated austerities, / Eating each day but a single grain of hemp, of rice, or of barley. / Striving day and night without sleeping, / His physical form retained only skin and bones. / Sitting in contemplation beneath the Bodhi tree, / Eight hundred thousand heavenly demons came. / Filling the four directions, above, below, the earth, and the sky, / Across eighty yojanas, all was completely filled. / Such demon armies and their retinues / He was able to defeat and cause to submit. / Perfecting unsurpassed, supreme bodhi, / He attained and realized the fruit of the ultimate truth.
