「弟子等!至心懺悔貪欲之罪。經中說言:『但為貪欲閉在癡獄,沒生死河莫之能出。』眾生為是五欲因緣,從昔已來流轉生死。一一眾生一劫之中,所積身骨如王舍城毘富羅山,所飲母乳如四海水,身所出血復過於此,父母兄弟六親眷屬,命終哭泣所出目淚如四海氷。是故,說言:『有愛則生愛盡則滅,故知生死貪愛為本。』所以經言:『婬欲之罪,能令眾生墮於地獄餓鬼受苦,若在畜生則受鴒雀鴛鴦等身,若生人中妻不貞良,得不隨意眷屬。』婬欲既有如此惡業,是故,弟子!今日至心稽顙歸依佛。
"Disciples, with utmost sincerity, repent of the sin of lustful desire! A sūtra says: 'Merely because of lustful desire one is shut within the prison of delusion, sinking in the river of saṃsāra with no one able to escape.' It is through the conditions of these five desires that sentient beings have drifted through saṃsāra from the beginningless past. In the course of a single kalpa, the accumulated bones of a single sentient being would equal Mount Vipula at Rājagṛha, the mother's milk one has drunk would equal the waters of the four oceans, and the blood shed from one's body would surpass even this; the tears shed by one's parents, siblings, and six kinds of relations weeping at one's death would be as the ice of the four oceans. Therefore, it is said: 'When there is craving, there is birth; when craving is exhausted, [birth] ceases. Thus we know that craving and love are the root of saṃsāra.' For this reason, a sūtra says: 'The sin of lustful desire can cause sentient beings to fall into the hells and among hungry ghosts to suffer torment; if among animals, one receives bodies such as those of snipes, sparrows, and mandarin ducks; if born among human beings, one's wife will not be chaste and good, and one's family and dependents will not be to one's liking.' Since lustful desire incurs such evil karmic fruit, we disciples today, with utmost sincerity, bow our heads to the ground and take refuge in the Buddhas!"
