翻譯名義集 2.24

2.24

【跋闍羅波膩】梁云金剛。應法師云：「跋闍羅，此云金剛。波膩，此云手。謂手執金剛杵以立名。」《正法念》云：「昔有國王，夫人生千子，欲試當來成佛之次第，故俱留孫探得第一籌，釋迦當第四籌，乃至樓至當千籌。第二夫人生二子，一願為梵王，請千兄轉法輪。次願為密跡金剛神（應法師云：『梵語散那，譯云密主，知佛三密功德故也。梵本都無迹義，以示迹為神，譯者義立，故云密迹。』），護千兄教法。」世傳樓至化身，非也，乃法意王子。據經唯一人，今狀於伽藍之門，而為二像。夫應變無方，多亦無咎，出《索隱記》。

[Vajrapāṇi] In Liang, it was translated as 'adamantine' (jingang). Dharma Master Huanying says: 'Vajra translates here as adamantine. Pāṇi translates here as hand. It is named from holding a vajra pestle in hand.' The *Saddharmasmṛtyupasthāna Sūtra* states: 'Anciently there was a king whose queen bore a thousand sons. Wishing to test the order in which they would attain Buddhahood in the future, Krakucchanda drew the first lot, Śākyamuni drew the fourth lot, down to Rocana who drew the thousandth lot. The second queen bore two sons. One vowed to be Brahmā King, requesting his thousand elder brothers to turn the wheel of the Dharma. The next vowed to be the Guhyapada Vajra spirit (Dharma Master Huanying says: "The Sanskrit word is śānta, translated as Lord of Secrets, because he knows the merits of the Buddha's three mysteries. The Sanskrit original has no meaning of 'footprint' or 'trace'; taking the manifestation of traces to be a spirit was established interpretively by translators, hence it is called Guhyapada [Secret Traces]"), to protect the teachings and Dharma of his thousand elder brothers.' Popular tradition holds that he is an incarnation of Rocana, but this is incorrect; he is Prince Fayis. According to the sūtras he is only one person, yet today he is depicted at the gates of saṅghārāmas as two statues. Since responsive transformations are boundless, even many would be without fault; this appears in the *Suoyin ji*.
