“须菩提!汝勿谓如来作是念:‘我当有所说法。’莫作是念,何以故?若人言:如来有所说法,即为谤佛,不能解我所说故。须菩提!说法者,无法可说,是名说法。”尔时,慧命须菩提白佛言:“世尊!颇有众生,于未来世,闻说是法,生信心不?”佛言:“须菩提!彼非众生,非不众生。何以故?须菩提!众生众生者,如来说非众生,是名众生。” | WHAT IS SPOKEN IS NOT SPOKEN,TWENTY-ONE
Subhuti, do not maintainthat the Thus Come One has this thought: 'I have spoken Dharma.' Do not thinkthat way. Why? If someone says the Thus Come One has spoken Dharma, he slandersthe Buddha due to his inability to understand what I teach. Subhuti, as tospeaking Dharma, no Dharma can be spoken. Therefore it is called 'speakingDharma'. At that time Subhuti, the wise elder, addressed the Buddha,"World Honored One, will there be living beings in the future who believein this Sutra when they hear it?" The Buddha said, "The living beingsto whom you refer are neither living beings nor not living beings. Why?Subhuti, all the different kinds of living beings the Thus Come One speaks ofare not living beings. Therefore they are called living beings." |
