Chapter 25: The Chapter on Nirvana

[The following represents an unverified English translation. For all purposes consult the original Chinese text.]

When the Buddha arrived at the place of Nirvana (涅槃處 [nie pan chu]),
Vaisali (鞞舍離 [bing she li]) was empty and desolate,
like the darkness of a night cloud,
when the stars and moon lose their light.
The country was first peaceful and joyful,
but now it is suddenly withered,
like an orphan girl who has lost her kind father,
and is always sad and alone.
Like a person with a beautiful appearance but no knowledge,
intelligent but with little virtue,
eloquent in mind but with a stutter,
bright and wise but lacking in talent.
With supernatural powers but no majestic manners,
with a compassionate mind (慈悲心 [ci bei xin]) but being false,
high and superior but without strength,
with majestic manners but no Dharma (法 [fa]).
Vaisali (鞞舍離 [bing she li]) was also like this,
first glorious but now withered,
like autumn seedlings
that have lost water and are all dried up.
Some stopped their fires and extinguished their smoke,
some forgot to eat their food,
they all abandoned their public and private affairs,
and did not cultivate their worldly connections.
They remembered the Buddha's (佛 [fu]) deep kindness,
and were silently and speechless.
At that time, the Licchavi (離車 [li che]) Simha (師子 [shi zi]),
forced himself to endure his sorrow and grief,
and with tears flowing, he uttered a sorrowful sound,
to express his heart of attachment:
"He has destroyed all evil paths,
and revealed the right Dharma (正法 [zheng fa]).
He has already subdued all other schools (外道 [wai dao]),
and is now leaving, never to return.
The world has lost the transcendental path (離世道 [li shi dao]).
Impermanence (無常 [wu chang]) is a great disease.
The World-Honored One (世尊 [shi zun]) has entered the great quietude (大寂 [da ji]),
without a protector or a savior.
The most supreme and expedient one (方便最勝尊 [fang bian zui sheng zun])
has hidden his light and reached the ultimate place.
We have lost our strong will,
like a fire that has run out of fuel.
The World-Honored One (世尊 [shi zun]) has abandoned the world's shelter,
sentient beings are so pitiful.
Like a person who has lost divine power,
the whole world mourns him.
Fleeing from the heat, we went to a cool pond.
Suffering from the cold, we relied on a fire.
Now that both are suddenly empty,
where can sentient beings go?
He was able to fully understand the supreme Dharma (殊勝法 [shu sheng fa]),
and was the world's potter and teacher.
The world has lost its sovereign and leader.
When people die, the path also dies.
Old age, sickness, and death are free.
When the path dies, the non-path prevails.
Who in the world can be a match
for the one who can destroy the great machine of suffering?
The raging heat is extremely fierce,
but a great cloud rains to extinguish it.
The fire of greed is blazing,
who can extinguish it?
The firm and able bearer
has abandoned the heavy burden of the world.
What wisdom (智慧 [zhi hui]) and power can there be
to be an uninvited friend?
Like a prisoner facing execution,
who gets drunk for fear of death.
Sentient beings are confused in their consciousness,
and only receive birth for death.
A sharp saw is used to cut wood,
and impermanence cuts the world.
The darkness of ignorance is a deep water,
and the desires of love are giant waves.
Afflictions (煩惱 [fan nao]) are floating foam,
and evil views are giant fish.
Only the boat of wisdom (智慧船 [zhi hui chuan])
can cross this great sea.
All diseases are the flowers of the tree,
old age is the slender branch,
death is the deep root of the tree,
and karma is its sprout.
The sharp and strong knife of wisdom (智慧剛利刀 [zhi hui gang li dao])
can cut the tree of the three existences (三有樹 [san you shu]).
Ignorance (無明 [wu ming]) is the fire-drill,
greed (貪欲 [tan yu]) is the blazing flame,
the five desires are the firewood.
They are extinguished by the water of wisdom (智水 [zhi shui]).
With the supreme Dharma (殊勝法 [shu sheng fa]) complete,
the darkness of ignorance (癡冥 [chi ming]) is destroyed.
He saw the peaceful and righteous path,
and reached the end of all afflictions (煩惱 [fan nao]).
He transformed sentient beings with compassion (慈悲 [ci bei]),
treating enemies and friends without distinction.
He fully understood all knowledge,
but now he has abandoned it all.
The soft and beautiful pure sound,
the square body and the slender long arms,
the great sage (大仙 [da xian]) also has an end.
Who can be without end?
We should be aware that time passes quickly,
and we should diligently seek the right Dharma (正法 [zheng fa]).
Like a person on a dangerous path who encounters water,
he should drink it in time and quickly proceed on the road.
Impermanence (非常 [fei chang]) is very violent and rebellious,
it universally destroys without distinction between noble and humble.
If we maintain the right view in our minds,
even when we sleep, we are always awake."
At that time, the Licchavi (離車 [li che]) Simha (師子 [shi zi])
often remembered the Buddha's (佛 [fu]) wisdom (智慧 [zhi hui]),
and was disgusted with birth and death (生死 [sheng si]).
He praised and admired the Lion among men (人師子 [ren shi zi]).
He did not hold on to worldly love and affection,
but deeply respected the virtue of separation from desires (離欲德 [li yu de]).
He subdued his fickle and impulsive mind,
and settled his mind in a quiet place.
He diligently practiced giving (惠施 [hui shi]),
and stayed far from arrogance (憍慢 [jiao man]).
He delighted in living alone in seclusion,
and contemplated the true Dharma (真實法 [zhen shi fa]).
At that time, the all-knowing one (一切智 [yi qie zhi]),
with his round body and lion-like gaze,
looked at Vaisali (鞞舍離 [bing she li]),
and spoke a long farewell verse:
"This is my last time
traveling through Vaisali (鞞舍離 [bing she li]).
I am going to the birthplace of the Malla (力士 [li shi]),
and will enter Nirvana (涅槃 [nie pan]) there."
Gradually, he traveled,
and arrived at the city of Pava (蒲加城 [pu jia cheng]).
He stayed in the Sal Grove (堅固林 [jian gu lin]),
and instructed the bhikshus (比丘 [bi qiu]):
"I will enter Nirvana (涅槃 [nie pan])
in the middle of the night.
You should rely on the Dharma (法 [fa]),
this is the supreme place.
If it is not included in the Sutras (脩多羅 [xiu duo luo]),
and does not carefully follow the Vinaya (律儀 [lu yi]),
and is contrary to the true meaning,
then it should not be accepted.
If it is not the Dharma (法 [fa]) and not the Vinaya (律 [lu]),
and is also not what I have said,
this is an obscure statement,
and you should abandon it quickly.
Holding on to a clear statement
is not a perversion.
This is what I have said,
a teaching that is in accordance with the Dharma (法 [fa]) and the Vinaya (律 [lu]).
If you accept it as my Dharma (法 [fa]) and Vinaya (律 [lu]),
it is trustworthy.
If you say that my Dharma (法 [fa]) and Vinaya (律 [lu]) are not,
then it is not trustworthy.
Not understanding the subtle meaning,
and mistakenly following the words,
this is a foolish person (愚夫 [yu fu]),
who speaks the non-Dharma (非法 [fei fa]) with arrogance.
Not distinguishing the true from the false,
and accepting it blindly without seeing,
is like mixing brass with gold in the market,
deceiving the world.
A foolish person (愚夫 [yu fu]) who practices superficial wisdom,
does not understand the true meaning.
He accepts a similar Dharma (相似法 [xiang shi fa]),
and thinks it is the true Dharma (真法 [zhen fa]).
Therefore, you must be careful,
and observe the true Dharma (真法 [zhen fa]) and Vinaya (律 [lu]),
just like a goldsmith
burns and beats it to get the true gold.
Not knowing the Sutras and treatises,
is not wisdom.
You should not speak what should not be spoken,
and what should be done should not be seen.
You should receive it with impartiality,
and act according to the meaning of the phrases.
Holding a sword without expedient means,
will wound your hand in return.
If the phrases are not skillfully arranged,
the meaning is difficult to understand,
like walking at night to find a room,
the house is vast and you do not know where to go.
Losing the meaning, you forget the Dharma (法 [fa]),
and forgetting the Dharma (法 [fa]), your mind becomes scattered.
Therefore, a wise person (智慧士 [zhi hui shi])
will not go against the true meaning."
After speaking this instruction,
he arrived at the city of Pava (波婆城 [bo po cheng]).
The Malla (力士 [li shi]) assembly there
made all kinds of offerings.
At that time, there was a son of an elder,
whose name was Cunda (純陀 [chun tuo]).
He invited the Buddha to his house,
and prepared the last meal as an offering.
After the meal and the Dharma (法 [fa]) talk,
he went to the city of Kusinagara (鳩夷城 [jiu yi cheng]),
and crossed the Kukuttha River (蕨蕨河 [jue jue he])
and the Hiranyavati River (熙連二河 [xi lian er he]).
There was a Sal Grove (堅固林 [jian gu lin]) there,
a peaceful and secluded place.
He entered the Golden River (金河 [jin he]) to bathe,
his body was like a true golden mountain (真金山 [zhen jin shan]).
He instructed Ananda (阿難陀 [a nan tuo]):
"Between those twin trees (雙樹間 [shuang shu jian]),
sweep it clean,
and set up a rope bed.
I will enter Nirvana (涅槃 [nie pan])
in the middle of the night."
Ananda (阿難 [a nan]) heard the Buddha's (佛 [fu]) teaching,
his breath was choked and his heart was sad.
He went crying to follow the instruction,
and after arranging it, he returned to report.
The Tathagata (如來 [ru lai]) went to the rope bed,
lay on his right side with his head to the north,
with his hand as a pillow and his feet stacked,
like a lion king.
This was his last body of suffering,
one sleep, never to rise again.
The disciples surrounded him,
lamenting that the eye of the world was extinguished.
The wind stopped, the forest streams were quiet,
and the birds and beasts were silent.
The trees cried tears of sap,
and flowers and leaves fell out of season.
The gods (人天 [ren tian]) who were not yet free from desires
were all greatly panicked.
Like a person traveling in a wilderness,
the road is dangerous and he has not yet reached a village.
He is afraid that he will not make it,
and his heart is fearful and his body is hurried.
The Tathagata (如來 [ru lai]) was finally lying down,
and he told Ananda (阿難陀 [a nan tuo]):
"Go and tell the Mallas (力士 [li shi]),
that the time of my Nirvana (涅槃 [nie pan]) has come.
If they do not see me,
they will forever have great regret and suffering."
Ananda (阿難 [a nan]) received the Buddha's (佛 [fu]) teaching,
and wept sadly along the road.
He told the Mallas (力士 [li shi]):
"The World-Honored One (世尊 [shi zun]) is finally leaving."
The Mallas (力士 [li shi]) heard this,
and were extremely panicked.
The men and women rushed out,
crying and wailing to the Buddha's place.
With tattered clothes and disheveled hair,
their bodies covered in dust and sweat,
they cried and wailed as they went to the grove,
like the gods (天 [tian]) whose merits have run out.
They bowed at the Buddha's feet with tears flowing,
and their bodies were wilted with sorrow and grief.
The Tathagata (如來 [ru lai]) comforted them, saying:
"You should not be sorrowful.
Now is the time for you to rejoice,
not to be sorrowful.
What I have planned for long eons (長劫 [zhang jie])
I have now finally attained.
I have already crossed the realm of the roots (根境界 [gen jing jie]),
the endless and cool place.
I am free from earth, water, fire, and wind,
quiet and not subject to arising and ceasing.
I have forever eliminated worries and calamities.
Why do you worry for me?
In the past, on Mount Gaya (伽闍山 [jia du shan]),
I wanted to abandon this body,
but because of the original causes and conditions,
I have existed in the world until now.
Guarding this fragile body
is like living with a poisonous snake.
Now that I enter the great quietude (大寂 [da ji]),
the causes and conditions for all sufferings are over.
I will no longer receive a body,
and the future sufferings will cease forever.
You should no longer
be afraid for me."
The Mallas (力士 [li shi]) heard the Buddha's (佛 [fu]) words,
that he was entering the great quietude (大寂靜 [da ji jing]),
their minds were in chaos and their eyes were dark,
like seeing a great darkness.
They clasped their hands and said to the Buddha:
"The Buddha (佛 [fu]) is free from the suffering of birth and death (生死苦 [sheng si ku]),
and has attained the eternal joy of quietude (寂滅樂 [ji mie le]).
We are truly happy for you.
It is like a burning house,
and a parent comes out from the fire.
The gods (諸天 [zhu tian]) are still happy,
not to mention the people of the world?
After the Tathagata (如來 [ru lai]) is extinguished,
sentient beings have no one to see.
We will forever lose our protection.
That is why we are sorrowful.
It is like a group of merchants
traveling far in a wilderness.
There is only one guide,
who suddenly dies on the way.
The multitude has no one to rely on.
How can they not be sorrowful?
You have directly and personally attained knowledge in this life,
and see all knowledge.
But we do not obtain the benefit.
The whole world should be laughed at.
It is like passing a mountain of treasures,
but foolishly remaining in poverty and suffering."
Just like this, the Mallas (力士 [li shi])
complained sorrowfully to the Buddha (佛 [fu]),
like a single child
complaining sorrowfully to his kind father.
The Buddha used good and persuasive words,
to reveal the ultimate truth (第一義 [di yi yi]),
and told the Malla (力士 [li shi]) assembly:
"You are indeed right in what you say.
Seeking the path requires diligence.
It is not enough to just see me.
If you act according to what I have said,
you will be free from the net of all sufferings.
Practicing the path should be in your heart,
it is not necessary to see me.
It is like a sick person
who takes good medicine according to the prescription.
All his diseases will naturally be eliminated,
without having to see the doctor.
If you do not act according to what I have said,
seeing me is of no benefit.
Although you are far from me,
if you act according to the Dharma (法 [fa]), you are close to me.
If you live with me but do not follow the Dharma (法 [fa]),
you should know that you are far from me.
Concentrate your mind and do not be careless,
and diligently cultivate the right karma (正業 [zheng ye]).
When a person is born into the world,
he is oppressed by all sufferings throughout the long night.
He is disturbed and not at peace,
like a lamp in the wind."
At that time, the Malla (力士 [li shi]) assembly,
heard the Buddha's (佛 [fu]) compassionate teaching.
They felt it inside and held back their tears,
and forced themselves to restrain their feelings and returned.
