佛說佛名經 18.13

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [18.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.441.18.13)

「第一觀因緣者，知我此罪籍以無明不善思惟，無正觀力不識其過，遠離善友諸佛菩薩。隨逐魔道行邪嶮俓，如魚吞鉤不知其患，如蠶作繭自縈自縛，如蛾赴火自燒自爛，以是因緣不能自出。

> "First, contemplating causes and conditions means knowing that these sins of mine rely upon ignorance and improper reflection; lacking the power of correct contemplation, I did not recognize their faults and remained far removed from good friends, the buddhas, and the bodhisattvas. Following after the paths of Māra, I walked along evil and perilous tracks, like a fish swallowing a hook unaware of its peril, like a silkworm spinning a cocoon tangling and binding itself, like a moth darting into a fire burning and consuming itself. Due to these causes and conditions, I have been unable to emerge on my own.
