法苑珠林 32.79

32.79

佛言。第十王夢見大谿水流正赤者。此後世諸國當忿爭。興軍聚眾更相攻伐。當作車兵步兵騎兵共鬪。相殺傷不可數。死者於路血流正赤。王夢正是。王莫恐悑。於國於大子於夫人皆亦無他。

The Buddha said: "The tenth dream, in which the king saw a great stream whose flowing water was bright red: this means that in future generations, the various states will be contentious, raising armies and massing forces to attack one another. Chariots, infantry, and cavalry will fight together, killing and wounding beyond count, and those who die upon the roads will cause blood to flow bright red. The king's dream refers precisely to this. Great King, do not fear; for your kingdom, for the crown prince, and for the queen, there will be no harm whatsoever."
