- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [23.11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.441.23.11)

「弟子等！自從無始已來至于今日，妄語、兩舌、惡口、綺語，傳空說有，說有言空，不見言見，見言不見，不聞言聞，聞言不聞，不知言知，知言不知，欺賢罔聖言行相乖；自稱讚譽得過人法，我得四禪、四無色定、阿那般那十六行觀，得須陀洹至阿羅漢，我得辟支佛不退菩薩，天來、龍來、鬼來、神來，旋風土鬼皆至我所，彼問我答，顯異惑眾要世名利。如是等罪無量無邊，今日發露歸命懺悔。

> "Disciples, from anādikāla until today, \[we have committed\] false speech, double-tongued speech, harsh speech, and frivolous speech; spoken of emptiness as existence, and spoken of existence as emptiness; said we saw what was not seen, and said we did not see what was seen; said we heard what was not heard, and said we did not hear what was heard; said we knew what was not known, and said we did not know what was known; deceived the worthy and hoodwinked the sagely, our words and actions contradicting each other; praised ourselves as having attained superhuman qualities—\[claiming\] 'I have attained the four dhyānas, the four formless attainments, the sixteen aspects of ānāpāna contemplation, and from srotāpanna up to arhat; I have attained pratyekabuddha and the non-retrogressing bodhisattva state; devas have come, nāgas have come, ghosts have come, spirits have come, and whirlwinds and earth ghosts have all arrived at my dwelling; they asked and I answered'—displaying wonders to delude the masses and seek worldly fame and profit. Sins such as these are limitless and boundless; today we disclose them, taking refuge and making kṣamā.
