### [8.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.643.8.18)

「爾時世尊還攝身光端坐金床，大眾雲集還到佛所，波斯匿王白言：『世尊！如來出世多所利益，乃於此處現大光明，況餘身分無量功德！』一切諸天在虛空中，亦讚如來百千梵行：『如來梵行乃得如此，勝陰馬藏沒無處所，顯出金華化佛無數，是持戒報功德巍巍。』時諸女人聞此說已，四千女等發阿耨多羅三藐三菩提心，二千女人遠塵離垢得法眼淨，二千女人於未來世過十二劫，次第當得辟支佛道。

> "At that time, the Bhagavat drew back the light of his body and sat upright on the golden couch. The great assembly gathered like clouds and returned to the Buddha's presence. King Prasenajit said: 'Bhagavat! The Tathāgata's appearance in the world brings vast benefit: he has manifested such great radiance here, not to mention the boundless merits of the rest of his bodily parts!' All the gods in the empty sky also praised the Tathāgata's hundreds of thousands of brahma-practices: 'Such are the brahma-practices of the Tathāgata that his supreme organ concealed in a sheath retracts leaving no trace, and displays golden lotuses and countless transformation Buddhas. This is the reward of holding the precepts, towering in merit.' When the women heard this exposition, four thousand among them brought forth the mind toward anuttarā samyaksaṃbodhi; two thousand women left the dust and cleared the stains, attaining the purity of the Dharma-eye; and two thousand women, after twelve kalpas have elapsed in the future, will successively attain the path of a pratyekabuddha.
