52.54

如十輪經云。佛言。若有剎利旃陀羅王。於三寶所起於惡心。一切諸佛所不能救。譬如壓油。一一麻中皆生諸蟲。以壓油輪而壓取之。即便油出。此壓油人於其日夜。為應定殺幾所眾生。若復有人以是十輪而壓油者。一輪一日一夜壓油千斛。如是乃至滿於千年。是壓油人得幾所罪。地藏菩薩言。甚多世尊。無能知是人罪量。其數多少唯佛知之。佛言。譬如十輪之罪等一婬女舍罪。其舍有千女皆為求欲。如是十婬女舍其罪等一酒家。如是十酒家等一屠兒舍。如是十屠兒舍罪等一剎利旃陀羅居士。旃陀羅十輪中等於一王輪一日一夜罪。爾時世尊而說偈言。

Day and night, how many sentient beings must this oil-presser certainly kill? If, furthermore, a person were to press oil with ten such wheels, each wheel pressing a thousand bushels of oil day and night, continuing like this for a full thousand years, how much sin would this oil-presser incur? The Bodhisattva Kṣitigarbha said: "Exceedingly much, World-Honoured One! None can know the measure of this person's sin; the Buddha alone knows its number and quantity." The Buddha said: "By analogy, the sin of ten wheels equals the sin of one brothel, a house having a thousand women who all pursue lust. Ten such brothels equal the sin of one tavern. Ten such taverns equal [the sin of] one slaughterhouse. The sin of ten such slaughterhouses equals [the sin of] one kṣatriya-caṇḍāla householder. In ten turns of the caṇḍāla, it equals the sin of a king's wheel for a single day and night." At that time, the World-Honoured One spoke a gāthā, saying:
