第一千零四十三章 多受经
中部59经/多受经(屋主品[6])
这是我亲身听闻到的,有个时候,佛陀住在舍卫城的祇树林给孤独园。那时,五支工匠来到优陀夷尊者处。到达后,向优陀夷尊者礼敬,然后坐在一旁。坐在一旁后,五支工匠对优陀夷尊者说:"优陀夷尊者,世尊说有几种受?"
"工匠啊,世尊说有三种受。乐受、苦受、不苦不乐受 - 工匠啊,这是世尊所说的三种受。"
听到这话,五支工匠对优陀夷尊者说:"优陀夷尊者,世尊没有说三种受;世尊说有两种受 - 乐受和苦受。尊者,至于不苦不乐受,世尊说那是属于寂静、殊胜的乐。"
优陀夷尊者第二次对五支工匠说:"居士啊,世尊没有说两种受;世尊说有三种受。乐受、苦受、不苦不乐受 - 工匠啊,这是世尊所说的三种受。"
五支工匠第二次对优陀夷尊者说:"优陀夷尊者,世尊没有说三种受;世尊说有两种受 - 乐受和苦受。尊者,至于不苦不乐受,世尊说那是属于寂静、殊胜的乐。"
优陀夷尊者第三次对五支工匠说:"工匠啊,世尊没有说两种受;世尊说有三种受。乐受、苦受、不苦不乐受 - 工匠啊,这是世尊所说的三种受。"
五支工匠第三次对优陀夷尊者说:"尊者优陀夷,世尊没有说三种受,世尊说有两种受 - 乐受和苦受。尊者,至于不苦不乐受,世尊说那是属于寂静、殊胜的乐。"
优陀夷尊者无法说服五支工匠,五支工匠也无法说服优陀夷尊者。
阿难尊者听到了优陀夷尊者与五支工匠的这番对话。然后,阿难尊者来到佛陀处。到达后,向佛陀礼敬,然后坐在一旁。坐在一旁后,阿难尊者将优陀夷尊者与五支工匠的整个对话告诉了佛陀。
听到这话,佛陀对阿难尊者说:"阿难啊,五支工匠没有赞同优陀夷所说的某个方面,优陀夷也没有赞同五支工匠所说的某个方面。阿难啊,如来从一个角度说有两种受,从另一个角度说有三种受,从另一个角度说有五种受,从另一个角度说有六种受,从另一个角度说有十八种受,从另一个角度说有三十六种受,从另一个角度说有一百零八种受。阿难啊,如来就是这样从不同角度教导法。阿难啊,当如来这样从不同角度教导法时,如果有人不同意、不赞成、不随喜别人说得好的话,可以预料他们会争吵、斗争、辩论,用言语互相伤害。阿难啊,当如来这样从不同角度教导法时,如果有人同意、赞成、随喜别人说得好的话,可以预料他们会和睦相处,欢喜融洽,不起争执,如水乳交融,以慈爱的眼光彼此对视。"
"阿难啊,有这五种欲。哪五种?眼识可识别的色(色解释:物质事物),是可意的、可爱的、悦意的、可爱乐的、与欲有关的、令人贪恋的;耳识可识别的声...鼻识可识别的香...舌识可识别的味...身识可识别的触,是可意的、可爱的、悦意的、可爱乐的、与欲有关的、令人贪恋的 - 阿难啊,这就是五种欲。阿难啊,缘于这五种欲而生起的乐和喜悦,这就叫做欲乐。
"阿难啊,如果有人说:'这是众生所能感受的最高乐和喜悦',如来不同意这种说法。为什么呢?阿难啊,因为还有比这种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐。阿难啊,什么是比这种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐呢?阿难啊,比丘离欲、离不善法,有寻有伺(有寻有伺解释,见第八百八十九章),离生喜乐,成就并住于初禅(初禅解释,见第一百五十五章)。阿难啊,这就是比那种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐。
"阿难啊,如果有人说:'这是众生所能感受的最高乐和喜悦',如来不同意这种说法。为什么呢?阿难啊,因为还有比这种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐。阿难啊,什么是比这种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐呢?阿难啊,比丘寻伺寂静...成就并住于第二禅(二禅解释,见第一百五十五章)。阿难啊,这就是比那种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐。
"阿难啊,如果有人说...什么是比这种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐呢?阿难啊,比丘离喜...成就并住于第三禅(三禅解释,见第一百五十五章)。阿难啊,这就是比那种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐。
"阿难啊,如果有人说...什么是比这种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐呢?阿难啊,比丘舍乐...成就并住于第四禅(四禅解释,见第一百五十五章)。阿难啊,这就是比那种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐。
"阿难啊,如果有人说...什么是比这种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐呢?阿难啊,比丘超越一切色想,灭有对想(色解释:物质事物,有对想解释:即是五根对五境接触碰撞生起念想,也就是由眼睛与物质事物,耳朵与声音,鼻子与气味,舌头与味道,身体与触觉生起念想),不作意种种想,成就并住于'空无边处(空无边处解释,见第一百五十五章)'。阿难啊,这就是比那种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐。
"阿难啊,如果有人说...什么是比这种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐呢?阿难啊,比丘超越一切空无边处,成就并住于'识无边处(识无边处解释,见第一百五十五章)'。阿难啊,这就是比那种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐。
"阿难啊,如果有人说...什么是比这种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐呢?阿难啊,比丘超越一切识无边处,成就并住于'无所有处(无所有处解释,见第一百五十五章)'。阿难啊,这就是比那种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐。
"阿难啊,如果有人说...什么是比这种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐呢?阿难啊,比丘超越一切无所有处,成就并住于'非想非非想处(非想非非想处解释,见第一百五十五章)'。阿难啊,这就是比那种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐。
"阿难啊,如果有人说:'这是众生所能感受的最高乐和喜悦',如来不同意这种说法。为什么呢?阿难啊,因为还有比这种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐。阿难啊,什么是比这种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐呢?阿难啊,比丘超越一切非想非非想处,成就并住于想受灭(想受灭解释,见第一百五十五章)。阿难啊,这就是比那种乐更殊胜、更微妙的乐。
"阿难啊,可能会有这种情况,其他外道游方者会这样说:'沙门乔达摩说想受灭,并称之为乐。这是什么意思?这怎么可能?'阿难啊,当其他外道游方者这样说时,应该这样回答他们:'朋友们,世尊不是只考虑乐受才称之为乐;朋友们,无论在哪里发现乐,如来都称之为乐。'"
佛陀如是说。阿难尊者欢喜,随喜佛陀所说。
多受经第九终。
