法苑珠林 3.20

3.20

起世經云。佛告比丘。以何因緣。諸天會處名善法堂。三十三天集會坐時。於中唯論微細善語深義稱量觀察。皆是世間諸勝要法真實正理。是以諸天稱為善法堂。又何因緣名波婁沙迦苑（隋言麁澁）三十三天王入已。坐於賢及善賢二石之上。唯論世間麁惡不善戲謔之語。是故稱波婁沙迦。又何因緣名雜色車苑。三十三天王入已。坐於雜色善雜色二石之上。唯論世間種種雜色相語言。是故稱為雜色車苑。又何因緣名雜亂苑。三十三天常以月八日十四日十五日。於其宮內一切婇女入此園中。令與三十三天眾合雜嬉戲。不生障隔恣其歡娛。受天五欲具足功德游行受樂。是故諸天共稱此園為雜亂苑。又何因緣彼天有園名為歡喜。三十三天王入其中已。坐於歡喜善歡喜二石之上。心受歡喜復受極樂。是故諸天共稱彼園以為歡喜。又何因緣名波利夜怛邏拘毘陀羅樹。彼樹下有天子住。名曰末多。日夜常以彼天種種五欲功德具足和合游戲受樂。是故諸天遂稱彼樹。以為波利夜怛邏拘毘陀羅樹。

The Qishi jing says: The Buddha addressed the bhikṣus: “For what reason is the assembly hall of the devas called the Hall of Good Dharma (Sudharmā)? When the devas of the Trāyastriṃśa assemble and sit within it, they discuss only delicate and virtuous words, weighing and observing deep meanings, all being the superior, essential dharmas and true principles of the world; therefore the devas call it the Hall of Good Dharma. For what reason is it called the Pāruṣyaka Garden (in the language of the Sui, ‘Rough and Harsh’)? When the kings of the Trāyastriṃśa enter it, they sit upon two stone seats, the Worthy and the Well-Worthy, and speak only of the rough, evil, unwholesome, and playful words of the world; therefore it is called Pāruṣyaka. And for what reason is it called the Garden of Variegated Chariots (Citrāratha)? When the kings of the Trāyastriṃśa enter it, they sit upon two stone seats, the Variegated and the Well-Variegated, and discuss only words concerning the various variegated appearances of the world; therefore it is called the Garden of Variegated Chariots. And for what reason is it called the Mixed and Disordered Garden (Miśrakā)? On the eighth, fourteenth, and fifteenth days of the month, all the palace maidens from within their palaces enter this park, where they mingle and frolic with the hosts of the Trāyastriṃśa without hindrance, indulging in their pleasure, enjoying the five celestial desires replete with merits, wandering and experiencing delight; therefore the devas together call this park the Mixed and Disordered Garden. And for what reason does that heaven have a park called Joy (Nandana)? When the kings of the Trāyastriṃśa have entered it, they sit upon two stone seats, Joy and Well-Joyed, experiencing joy in their minds and further experiencing utmost bliss; therefore the devas together call that park Joy. And for what reason is it called the Pārijāta-kovidāra Tree? Beneath that tree there dwells a devaputra named Mada. Day and night he always enjoys the various merits of that heaven's five desires, fully gathered together, wandering, playing, and experiencing pleasure; therefore the devas subsequently call that tree the Pārijāta-kovidāra Tree.”
