佛說佛名經 7.11

7.11

「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水，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，若在畜生則受鴿雀鴛鴦等身，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。

“We disciples with our whole hearts repent of our sins of lustful desire. It is said in the sūtra: ‘Only due to lustful desire are beings confined in the prison of ignorance, sinking in the river of saṃsāra without being able to emerge.’ It is on account of these five desires that sentient beings have transmigrated through saṃsāra since beginningless time. The bones accumulated from each sentient being's bodies in a single kalpa equal Mount Vipula at Rājagṛha; the mother's milk they have drunk is like the waters of the four oceans; and the blood shed from their bodies exceeds even this. The tears shed by their parents, siblings, and six classes of kin weeping at their death are like the waters of the four oceans. Therefore it is said: ‘Where there is craving, there is birth; when craving is exhausted, birth ceases.’ Thus we know that craving and love are the root of saṃsāra. Therefore the sūtra says: ‘The sin of sexual misconduct can cause sentient beings to fall into the hells and hungry ghosts to endure suffering; if among beasts, they receive bodies such as pigeons, sparrows, and mandarin ducks; if born among humans, their wives will not be chaste and virtuous, and they will receive uncongenial dependents.’ Since sexual misconduct has such evil karmas, therefore we disciples today with whole hearts bow our heads and take refuge in the Buddha:
