佛說觀佛三昧海經 9.29

9.29

爾時會中有菩薩摩訶薩名曰彌勒，即從座起，偏袒右肩頂禮佛足，脫身瓔珞奉上如來，以真珠華散佛世尊及文殊師利，所散瓔珞自然踊住於虛空中，化成八萬億寶臺，一一臺中有百億釋迦文佛，皆放光明普現色身，山林河海一切眾生所有妙色，星宿日月諸須彌山，諸天龍神及諸宮殿亦於中現，五通神仙百億呪術，九十五種諸邪見道，醫方技藝工巧文詠，皆於一毛顯現此事，世間邪見穢欲眾生所希見者，亦於光明悉自踊出。地獄、畜生、諸阿修羅，八難、四倒諸不祥事，受報好醜亦於此相自得覺知。所散珠華住佛上者，化作百億白色光明；住文殊上者，化作百千億微妙色光。此諸光明互相交絡，如大龍王蟠身相向，一一光中五億寶光，如僧伽梨割截分明，以金色光縫持令住，縷出入處生四寶華；一一華中賢劫菩薩結加趺坐，十方諸佛及諸化佛坐寶蓮華，為此賢劫諸大菩薩說般舟甚深三昧，亦讚觀佛最初因緣，惟無三昧念佛境界金剛譬定。說是法已是諸如來各申右手摩阿難頂告言：「法子！汝今應當善持佛語慎勿忘失。」爾時彌勒菩薩白佛言：「世尊！惟願天尊大慈大悲，憐愍一切未來世中，多有眾生造不善業，佛不現在，何所依怙可除罪咎？」

At that time in the assembly there was a bodhisattva mahāsattva named Maitreya. He immediately rose from his seat, bared his right shoulder, prostrated himself at the Buddha's feet, took off the necklace from his body, and offered it to the Tathāgata, scattering pearl flowers over the Buddha, the Bhagavat, and Mañjuśrī. The necklaces that were scattered naturally leaped up and stayed in the air, transforming into eight hundred billion jeweled terraces. Within each terrace were ten billion Śākyamuni Buddhas, all emitting light and universally manifesting rūpakāyas. All exquisite colors of the mountains, forests, rivers, seas, and sentient beings, the stars, lunar mansions, sun, moon, various Mount Sumerus, and the devas, dragons, spirits, and their palaces also appeared therein. The five supernatural faculties of the ṛṣis, the ten billion incantations, the ninety-five kinds of paths of false views, medical formulas, crafts, technological arts, and literary compositions—all these matters were displayed in a single hair-pore. Even what beings of worldly false views and defiled desires long to see also completely leaped forth within the light. The hells, animals, asuras, the eight conditions of lack of leisure, the four inversions, and all inauspicious matters, as well as the good and bad karmic retributions, were also personally perceived within these forms. The pearl flowers scattered above the Buddha transformed into one hundred billion white lights; those above Mañjuśrī transformed into hundreds of thousands of billions of exquisitely colored lights. These lights intertwined with one another like great dragon kings coiling facing each other. Within each light were five hundred million jeweled lights, distinct and separated like a saṅghāṭī robe, sewn and held together by golden light; where the threads entered and exited, flowers of the four jewels were born. Within each flower sat a bodhisattva of the Bhadrakalpa cross-legged. The Buddhas of the ten directions and the transformation Buddhas sat on jeweled lotus flowers, preaching the profound pratyutpanna-samādhi for these great bodhisattvas of the Bhadrakalpa, and also praising the initial cause and condition for contemplating the Buddha, the vajropama-samādhi of the realm of mindfulness of the Buddha, the samādhi without equal. Having preached this Dharma, these Tathāgatas each extended their right hand, stroked Ānanda's head, and said: "Son of the Dharma! You should now hold the Buddha's words well and take care not to forget them." At that time Maitreya Bodhisattva said to the Buddha: "Bhagavat, we pray only that the Heavenly Honored One, with great loving-kindness and great compassion, will have pity on all sentient beings of the future age. Many of them will create unwholesome karma; when the Buddha is not present, on what refuge can they rely to eliminate their faults and transgressions?"
