Maitreya Maitreya Buddha's Buddha Theory Maitreya Maitreya's birth into a Buddha Chinese translation: Duong Nghia Tinh Viet translation: Thich Tam Chau *** 1. I myself heard that, at one time, the World-Honored One was staying on Linh mountain. Thu, belongs to Vuong Xa citadel. He and some of the Great Bodhisatta were in this place (2). 2. And, at that time there was a great intellectual, Xa Ly Tu, who was the dharma minister, supreme among them because of his love for the world, immediately from the court sat, calmly stood up, lowered his right shoulder shirt, knelt on his right knee, With clasped hands respectfully, the Blessed One said: "Dear World Honored One, I hope that the Blessed One will accept it." 3. The Buddha said to Mr. Sāli Tzu: “Whatever you ask, I will explain.” 4. Right at that time, Mr. Xa Ly Tu, asked the World Honored One in verse: “As the sutra said, the Great Master accepted the Buddha's sign later, Mr. Tu Thi. Dear World-Honored One, recite this sutra, and clearly distinguish the mighty virtue of Tu Thi. We want to hear about it.” 5. The Buddha was kind, told Shariputra: "You should be sincere, listen carefully, I will speak for you about the World Honored One, in the next life." 6. With that world, the water in the sea, gradually dried up, down to two thousand three hundred yojanas (3) revealing the land of the Wheel of the Wheel. The Southern Good Region, the horizontal and vertical land, tens of thousands of yojanas, and everywhere there are sentient beings residing in it, are full. The country is rich and prosperous, with no punishments, no evils. Men and women here, born of good karma. Soil without thorns, pure green soft grass. Feet step up, as on fluffy cotton. The country naturally grows fragrant rice, delicious taste, all full. Naturally the trees, it turns out, dress enough to be dignified. Each tree is three thousand feet high (4), abundant fruit. 7. People in that country live eighty thousand years old, no suffering, no affliction, usually happy. The General is dignified, full of energy. But people worry about only three things, which are food, weakness, and convenience. As for women, they don't get married until they are five hundred years old. When someone wants to move easily, the earth cracks, it is convenient to enter it, and the land closes. When you are about to die, go directly to the cemetery where you are incarnated. The capital city of Luan Vuong is a wonderful General. The length of the capital city is twelve yojanas. Its width is seven yojanas. The inhabitants of the city are all those who have planted good seeds. The city has victory and virtue, everyone is happy. The castle, the defense departments, all built with seven treasures (6). Locks and doors, also inlaid with jewels. Groove around the citadel, made of precious gems. Fragrant flowers, beautiful birds flying. Seven rows of da la (2) planted in all. And, all adorned with jewels. On each of those trees hung bells. The gentle wind blows on the precious trees, and there are soothing and mysterious sounds, like an eight-syllable (8) the listeners rejoice. Everywhere there are beautiful ponds and lakes, which are full of colorful flowers. Beautiful gardens and forests, dignified citadel. 8. This country has a holy master named Huong Khu, is Kim Luan Vuong, ruling four continents, powerful, rich and prosperous. The king's blessing, incomparable strength. There are also four types of heroes. All achievements are equal to seven treasures. The king also had a thousand children. Four peaceful seas, no war. The righteous law teaches the people and advises them to be equal. The country also has four great treasures. In each treasure there are hundreds of thousands of millions of precious things. In Yet Lang Gia, there is a treasure called Bang Kiet La. In Mi Hy La, there is a treasure called the Eight-Shark Ca. In the place of Kien Da, there is a treasure Y La Bat La. In Brahmin, there is a treasure named Huong Khu. Those four treasures belong to King Huong Khu. Due to relying on many previous blessings, so today, the results are accomplished. 9. The king had a great father-in-law, the Brahmin lineage, named Thien Tinh. He was a National Teacher, a multi-literate person, thoroughly understood the "Four Minds" (9) through journals, eager to listen, eager to learn, skillful in practice, skillful in teaching, and in teaching and clarifying subjects. 10)” are all studied. And Mrs. Tinh Dieu is Thien Tinh's wife, with a dignified figure, everyone who sees her is also happy. 10. Now Duc Thi, from Tu Suat heaven (11) borrowed from Tinh Dieu, carried a human fetus, gave the last body. Pregnant with great saint, full ten months. One day, the venerable mother of Duc Thi Thi visited Dieu Hoa garden. When she came to this garden, she did not sit, lie down, stand by the flower tree, suddenly gave birth to Duc Thi. 11. When Tu Thi was born from her mother's right armpit, like the sun, it broke out of the clouds and released light, illuminating everything. Although borrowed the fetus, but not exposed to worldly scenes. Like a fragrant lotus, it grows out of water. 12. When the light shines on the three realms (12), all places and places respect the light of Duc Thi. And during the birth, Emperor Thich Thien Chu (13) , lifted himself up to the Bodhisattva and was very happy, met the Two Tuc Ton (14) . During that time, the bodhisattva spontaneously walked seven steps, in each step a precious lotus flower bloomed. 13. At that time, Tu Thi observed the ten directions and declared to the gods and humans that: "This is the ultimate body, attaining no birth, entering Nirvana". (15) 14. After that moment, the dragon sprayed clear water, bathed Dai Bi's body, the gods scattered flowers, covered the whole space, the gods held umbrellas, covering Dai Tu Ton. Everyone is born with a rare mind, and everyone protects the bodhisattva's body. 15. Nurturing and nurturing the bodhisattva's body. Seeing the body clearly embodied 32 good generals, all light. She immediately gave Him to His mother. People in the palace brought se to pick them up. This car is carved and adorned with jewels. My mother got into the car of the gods to help. A thousand kinds of music, playing a song of joy, leading to the bow. 16. When Tu Thi entered the city, the flowers were scattered. On the day he was born, the female body became pregnant, the body was safe, both gave birth to a son, intelligent and wise. The good-natured father looked at his son's face, full of 32 generals, his heart was filled with joy. Then he looked at the signs and knew his son's two characteristics: if he was in the world, he turned the wheel of kings, and if he left home, to become the Enlightened One. 17. Bodhisattvas grow up, have mercy on sentient beings. Sentient beings are in suffering, danger, and samsara, without pause. His body is golden, shining brightly. His voice, like a blasphemy. His eyes are green, like a green lotus. His members, eighty elbows. and dignified, like the full moon. 18. For Bodhisattvas, all professions are good. Again, skillfully teach those who follow them. Even small children asked to study with him, the number of people reached eighty four thousand. 19. In that world, Luan Vuong Huong Khu used the seven-treasure flag (17), the flag was about seventy games (18) high, and about sixty games wide. After setting up the flag, the king released his mind, gave Brahmins, established an ageless association (19), did almsgiving, equally. 20. In this world, the ranks of Pham Chi (20), there are thousands of people, get this treasure, a split second. When the Bodhisattva saw that, he thought to himself that mundane things are like that. All are bound by birth and death suffering. Therefore, he immediately thought of renunciation. I hope the religion is extinct, giving up the practice of renunciation. Leaving home to witness the Way, saving sentient beings from samsara, birth, old age, sickness, and death. 21. On the day of Duc Tu Ton, he made a great vow. There were eighty-four thousand people, born with a heart of love, and followed the holy life. At night, when he had just started his mind, he had released his monastic life, and he had attained the position of enlightenment. There is a Bodhi tree, named Long Hoa, four yojanas tall, lush and luxuriant. Covered by branches and leaves, radiating to the four sides, six loggias. Tu Thi Dai compassion, to the throne of right enlightenment, under this tree. 22. For humans, Tu Thi Dai compassion is the ultimate victory, he has all eight sounds of the Brahma realm (21).

That's familiar enough, hundreds of weeks. Towards Khun Luan Vuong, listening to the profound and wonderful Dharma, giving up all the ceiling labor, the heart likes to leave home. No regrets, in the palace. Just pour a heart, wish for a divorce. And the whole crowd, eighty-four thousand, also followed the king, ordained as a monk. Even young children, the Brahmin lineage, the majority would have, eighty-four thousand, hearing the king give up the custom, also asked to leave home. Even the chief organ, named Thien Tai, and thousands of relatives, also requested to be ordained.
