法苑珠林 94.23

94.23

夫五陰虛假四大浮危受斯偽質事等畫瓶。感此穢形又同杯器。內外無實觸塗皆染。加復閻浮穢質不淨充軀。常餐酒肉常食葷辛。臭氣上衝諸天衣裂。善神捨衛惡鬼交侵。凡夫僧尼尚不樂近。何況聖賢而不遠離。兼復八苦煎逼九橫摧年。念念遷流心心起滅。徒染六情終墜三惡。願各修身淨其心口也。

Now, the five aggregates are empty and false; the four great elements are fleeting and precarious. Receiving this counterfeit constitution is identical to an adorned vase; being affected with this foul form is again like a vessel [full of refuse]. Inside and outside there is no reality; whatever is encountered brings defilement. Moreover, the foul constitution of Jambudvīpa fills the body with impurities; people constantly consume wine and meat, and constantly eat pungent roots. The foul stench rushes upward, causing the robes of the devas to split. Good spirits abandon protection, and evil ghosts mutually invade. Even ordinary monks and nuns do not take pleasure in approaching; how much more will the noble and wise stay far away! In addition, the eight sufferings press and torment, and the nine untimely deaths cut short one's years. Mind-moment after mind-moment is in shifting flux; thought after thought arises and perishes. In vain one defiles the six senses, and in the end falls into the three evil destinies. May each person cultivate the body and purify their mind and mouth!
