***
1. I personally heard that, at one time, the Buddha was living in the lonely garden, the Ky Da trees, in the country of Savat.
2. At that time, the World-Honored One moved his body, releasing the aura. Yellow aura, around Ky Da garden. Around seven rounds, then shine on Mr. Tu Dat's house (2). This shining aura is also in the color of gold. This golden aura, like a cloud, spreads throughout the whole country of Sāvat. Wherever you go, it rains.
3. Then he turned into a golden lotus again. In each golden lotus aura, in which there are countless hundreds of thousands of great Buddhas, and each transformed Buddha, they all chant: "Now there are thousands of bodhisattvas here, who will attain Buddhahood. First to become a Buddha, Mr. Cau Luu Ton And in the last time, the one who attained Buddhahood was Mr. Lou Chi."
4. The Buddha turned Buddha, said that word, Mr. Kieu Tran Nhu, from meditation, along with two hundred and fifty relatives came to the Buddha's place. Venerable Mahakasyapa also went with two hundred and fifty relatives to the Buddha's place. Dai Muc Kien Lien also went with two hundred and fifty relatives to the Buddha's place. Venerable Xa Ly also went with two hundred and fifty relatives to the Buddha's place. The elder Tu Dat also went with three thousand Upas and Tac (3), together to the Buddha's place. Venerable Khumu also went to the Buddha's place with two thousand Upas and Dis (4). The great bodhisattva group of sixteen, such as the Bodhisattva Bodhisattva Ba La..., also went to the Buddha's place. The Dharma Prince (5) Manjushri, together with five hundred other bodhisattvas, went to the Buddha's place. Even the gods, dragons, yakshas, and gandharvas..., all the great assembly, seeing the Buddha's aura, gathered together to where the Buddha was.
5. At that time, the World Honored One released thousands of square rays of light. In each aura, there are thousands of colors, there are many Buddhas. These transformed Buddhas, although they have different mouths, but have the same voice, all say: "These great Bodhisattvas are all pure, possessing dharani (6) so profound and wonderful that it is inconceivable such as: dharani. dharani, dharani without wisdom, dharani without hindrance, dharani great liberation without sign.”
6. At that time, the World-Honored One used one sound to speak out hundreds of kotis of dharani. When the Blessed One spoke dharani song, in the Dharma assembly there was a bodhisattva named Maitreya, hearing the Buddha's words, he immediately attained hundreds of thousands of kotis of millions of dharani, and soon after, Maitreya Bodhisattva, immediately Sitting from the throne, properly dressed, rubbing hands, clasping hands, standing right in front of the Buddha.
7. And, at the same time, Mr. Upa Ly, standing up from the court, bowing to the Buddha, said to the Buddha: "Dear World Honored One, in the past, when the Blessed One said in the scriptures that Amitabha would be become a Buddha in the next life. Now I see that Mr. Amitabha still has the full body of an ordinary person and has not yet been able to get rid of all the taints. When Maitreya died, where would he be born? Maitreya himself, the present person, although he is a monk, does not practice meditation, does not stop defilements. The World Honored One (7) gave him Maitreya, I did not dare to doubt. But, I want to know, when he died, in which country was he born?
8. The World-Honored One immediately told Mr. Upa Ly: "Listen carefully, listen carefully, and remember to think well, now this Tathagata, the Chief of Transformation, in this assembly, talks about Maitreya, the great bodhisattva, sign unsurpassed righteous enlightenment."
9. After twelve years, Maitreya passed away, determined to be born in the Tusat heaven. There are five hundred billion heavenly sons in the Tusita heaven. Every Son of Heaven practices the perfection of giving. The Sons of Heaven, for the sake of making offerings to a bodhisattva "The One Born to complement the messenger" (8) by that blessing, built palaces. They took off all their precious hats, knelt straight, clasped their hands, and made a vow saying: "Today we bring these precious jewels and crowns of heavenly crowns, which are truly priceless, for the sole purpose of making offerings to them. the "Great Mind of Beings" Because, soon, in the next life, in the next life, he will become the unsurpassed one, fully enlightened. We just hope that, in the next life, we will be able to dignify the Buddha's kingdom and receive it. If that's the case, our treasured hats will be turned into offerings." Then just like that, the gods who took turns kneeling and making vows again,
10. When the Heavenly Sons have made their vows, they will turn into five hundred thousand billion treasures. Each treasure palace has a matching wall. Each wall overlaps, built with seven treasures. And, each treasure emits five hundred billion lights. In each light, there are five hundred billion large lotus flowers. Each lotus flower turns into five hundred billion rows of seven precious trees. Each leaf has five hundred kotis of precious colors. For each precious color, there are five hundred million pure golden lights in the Jambudvipa (9). Each light is like the pure golden light of Jambudvipa, showing five hundred kotis of goddesses and treasures. Each female guard, standing under a treasure tree, holds hundreds of billions of countless lost brothers (10). And, meanwhile, nature plays wonderful music. In that music, the wheel of non-regression is expounded. Those precious trees, bearing fruit, colored like crystals. These lights, shining in the right direction, flexibly emits a variety of sounds. Those sounds speak great compassion and great compassion.
11. About each wall overlap, the altitude is about, six two do weeks. The wall is about fourteen yojanas thick. Within that wall, there are five hundred billion dragon kings surrounded and guarded. Each Dragon King transforms into hundreds of billions of trees of seven treasures, to further adorn those walls. Then, suddenly, there was a gentle wind blowing those sentences. The branches of the tree collide with each other, and there are dharmas: suffering, emptiness, impermanence, not-self, and even the perfection of dharmas.
12. In this palace, there was a great minister, whose title was called Lao Do Bat De, immediately sat up from the throne to pay respects to all the Buddhas in the ten directions, and uttered a vast oath: "Now I am want to build a good Dharma hall, sincerely make offerings to Maitreya Bodhisattva. If I have that blessing, my forehead will naturally come out with many jewels, so that I can do as I wish.” After the great god made a vow, suddenly a hundred kinds of jewels, lapis lazuli, and crystal pearls appeared on his forehead, all of these colors were like this jade mani, illuminating the void, immediately manifesting forty-nine treasure palaces. There, they are combined, like thousands of millions of mani pearls, purple in color, transparent inside and out. This mani light, illuminating space, immediately manifests forty-nine wonderful treasures. Each row of balustrades of that palace, assembled together, are counted as ten thousand billion mani pearls, under the treasure of the Brahma realm. These balustrades, naturally, give birth to nine billion heavenly sons, and five hundred billion celestial maidens. The hands of each goddess are transformed into immeasurable, billions of thousands of thousands of lotuses and seven treasures. On each lotus flower, there are infinitely many billions of mixed light. In that aura are full of musical instruments. Those musical instruments, do not play by themselves. When the sound of musical instruments naturally released, the celestial maidens also held musical instruments and competed in singing and dancing.

14. There are seats, large lions, made of seven treasures, four yojanas high. That lion throne, adorned with gold Jambudvipa, and many other jewels. Four corners of this building, four lotus stations. Each lotus flower is made of hundreds of treasures. Each of these treasures always emits a hundred light.

15. And, at that time, hundreds of thousands of Brahma kings each carried a wonderful treasure of the Brahma realm, made a treasure bell, and hung it on a flag.

Hundreds of thousands of relatives of the sons of gods and goddesses also brought precious flowers and placed them on the thrones, and those flowers spontaneously appeared five hundred million jeweled maidens, holding white flags (12), standing under the flags. .
16. Supporting the palace, the four corners of the power have four treasured pillars. Each of these treasure columns, manifests in hundreds of thousands of pavilions, with hundreds of thousands of celestial maidens, extremely beautiful, holding musical instruments in their hands.

19. After describing the scene of Tusat heaven, the Buddha immediately said, Mr. Upa and Mrs. Ly: "This Tusita Realm is a place of virtue, the wondrous retribution of the ten good things. If we are in this world, about half a small kalpa talking about the bodhisattva's abode, "The Foundation of One Birth", the results of the ten good deeds will not end. Now, for your sake, I'll just say it briefly.
20. The Buddha again said to Mr. Upa Ly: "If the Bhikkhus or the great assembly, are not bored of birth and death, want to be born in heaven, but have a mind of unsurpassed reverence for Bodhi, and want to be Maitreya's disciples, they should. contemplation of Tusat heaven. But when contemplating, you should keep the five precepts, the eight precepts, and the mind and body. Although I do not wish to end the end of history, I need to practice and do ten good dharmas. Every thought, about the infinitely wonderful pleasure, Tusita heaven, needs to be generated. Contemplation like that, called righteous. If the shop is different, it is the wrong shop."
21. The Buddha finished teaching, Mr. Uu Ba Ly, got up from the court, properly dressed, bowed to the Buddha, and said to the Buddha: "Dear World Honored One, there are such great joys in the heavens of Tu Suat. Now, Mr. Maitreya, in what world will he pass away at Jambudvipa, and will be born in the Tusita heaven?"
22. The Buddha immediately told Mr. Upa Ly: "Mai Lai was born in the Ba Loi lineage of the Brahmin line, in the village of Ba Loi Kiep, in the country of Ba La Nai. After twelve years, on the fifteenth day of the second lunar month, returning to his birthplace, he sat cross-legged, as if entering cessation. His body is yellow, bright purple. And, that light, as bright as the light of hundreds of thousands of suns. The same light shines all the way up to the Tusita heaven. His body relics, like a golden statue, do not shake, do not move. Vien Quang's body, clearly showing the words of Thu Lang Nghiem samadhi, prajna paramita".
23. At that time, everyone and the gods followed the light, came to this place, built stupas, and offered relics. And, at the same time, in the Tusat heaven, he reincarnated himself, sitting cross-legged, in a lotus flower, on a lion throne, in a mani temple, in a seven treasure tower. His body is golden, like the pure gold in Jambudvipa. His body was sixteen yojanas tall. Enough to chop two generals, eighty beauty. Next to his head, the color of his hair is as blue as lapis lazuli. The heavenly hat is adorned with the old mani Shakyamuni jade, hundreds of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of millions of jade Yen uncle ca. That heavenly hat, has many colors, hundreds of thousands of millions of colors. In each form, there are immeasurable hundreds of thousands of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, standing by the attendants. The great bodhisattvas from other directions came and manifested eighteen transformations (13), at will. All are shown in celestial hats. Between the eyebrows of Mr. Maitreya, has a white aura, emitting hundreds of jeweled lights. Thirty-two marks, in each of which there are five hundred kotis of precious colors. Each beauty also has hundreds of millions of precious colors. For each good general, eighty-four thousand clouds of light appeared.
24. Maitreya Bodhisattva with the gods, sitting on a lotus throne. Day and night for six times (14), often speak the Dharma. Speak the dhammas of "No-regression". In a period of time, he accomplished for hundreds of millions of celestial sons, unable to revert to the unsurpassed and righteous enlightenment. Thus, day and night, in the Tusita heaven, he often spoke this Dharma, in order to save the gods. In about fifty-six million years of Jambudvipa, you will be reborn in this realm, as I said in the Maitreya Sutra."
25. The Buddha told Mr. Uu Ba Ly: "So the predestined Bodhisatta Maitreya died in Jambudvipa and was born in Tu Suat".
26. "After I pass away, my disciples., if anyone is diligent, cultivates virtues, does not lack majesty, sweeps towers, wipes the ground, makes offerings of perfumes, precious flowers, cultivates meditation subjects, penetrating righteous concentration, reading and reciting scriptures, such people should be determined. Although not yet finished all the end history, and have not yet witnessed the six miracles, but need the system of mindfulness (15). Reciting Buddha images, praising Maitreya's name. Such people, in just one thought, receive the eight precepts, cultivate pure karma, take wide vows, and after their death, like a sage stretching his arms, will be reborn in the Tushita heaven, sitting cross-legged An old man sits on a lotus, a hundred thousand sons of gods, playing heavenly music, and scattering flowers, on his head, like a mandala, a mandala, and praising him, saying: "Good, good, behold, behold. good man, when you are in the Nam Dien Bodhi realm, cultivating many blessings, just born here. This place is called Tu Sui heaven. Today's God is Lord Maitreya. He should take refuge, praise his name and worship him. Then, look closely at the white halo in the middle of your eyebrows, you will be free from the sins of birth and death, ninety million kalpas."
27. “And, at that moment, depending on the predestined conditions before Maitreya Bodhisattva, he immediately spoke the wonderful Dharma. Speak the wonderful dharmas, be such a person, maintain firmness, and not be able to turn away from the unsurpassed aspiration mind.
28. Those living beings, clean of their karma, can do six things (16), decide to be born in the Tusita heaven, meet Maitreya, canoe in the Jambudvipa realm, and listen to the Dharma in the first assembly. In the future life, in the good kalpa, will meet all the Buddhas who preach the Dharma. In the Star kalpa, you will also meet the Buddhas and World-Honored Ones. And, before the Buddhas, receive the unsurpassed Bodhi path."
29. The Buddha said to Mr. Upa Ly: "After I pass away, the bhikkhus, the bhikkhunis, and the Upasakas and the Upasakas, the celestial dragons, the yakshas, the gandharvas, the asuras, Kalou la, Kanna la, Ma ho la old ..., that is to say, all of that assembly, if anyone could hear Maitreya Bodhisattva's red name. Hearing and hearing with joy, reverence, and prostration, that person's death, in just a moment, like the snap of a fingernail, will immediately be reborn in the Tusita heaven, just like in the sky. And, even to hear only Maitreya Bodhisattva's name, after his death, he does not have to fall into the dark places, frontiers, wrong views, and evil laws. Often born into a political family, relatives in order, trusting the Three Jewels.
30. The Buddha said to Mr. Uu Ba Ly: "If a good man or a good woman breaks the forbidden precepts, creates a lot of bad karma, hears the name Maitreya Bodhisattva, the five bodies of the earth (17), becomes Confessed mind, those evil karmas, are quickly purified. In the future life, if sentient beings hear Maitreya Bodhisattva's name, create images, make offerings of incense, flowers, clothes, banners, and parasols, sincerely worship, single-mindedly recite them, until they are about to die, they will receive benefits. The bodhisattva releases a white light between his eyebrows, and with the sons of gods, scatters mandala flowers, and greets him again. In just a moment, that person was born in the Tusita realm, met the Bodhisattva, and bowed his head at the Bodhisattva's feet. And, when that person has not raised his head, has already heard the Dharma. Having heard the Dharma, with the unsurpassed Way, there is no turning back. In the future life, to meet the Buddhas. Buddhas are as numerous as the sands of the Ganges.
31. Buddha again told Mr. Uu Ba Ly: “You should listen carefully! In the next life, Maitreya Bodhisattva, as a refuge for sentient beings. If he takes refuge in Maitreya Bodhisattva, he will definitely not be regressed in the unsurpassed path. And, when the bodhisattva becomes a Tathagata, Rightly Transformed, and the practitioner sees the Buddha's light, he will receive the sign."
32. The Buddha said to Mr. Uu Ba Ly: "After passing away, among the four groups of my disciples, or the groups of Gods, Dragons, ghosts and spirits, etc., if anyone wants to be reborn in Tu Suat heaven, they should meditate on it. thought, the system of thinking about heaven Tu Suat. It is necessary to keep the precepts taught by the Buddha. From one day to seven days, think firmly about the ten good deeds, diligently practice the ten wholesome deeds (18), bring that merit, dedicate it all, hope to be born in the Tusita heaven, and come before Maitreya Bodhisattva."
33. So shop like that! Visualize like that, see a person, a lotus flower in that heaven; or in a single thought, praising Maitreya Bodhisattva's name, that person will be free from the sins of birth and death for a thousand two hundred kalpas. Just hearing the name Maitreya Bodhisattva, clasping his hands in reverence, that person is free from the sins of birth and death for fifty kalpas. If anyone respects Maitreya Bodhisattva, he will be free from the sins of birth and death for hundreds of millions of kalpas. Even if you don't want to be born in Tushita, in your future life, under the Dragon Flower tree, you will also meet Maitreya Bodhisattva and generate unsurpassed intentions."
34. When the World-Honored One said that word, immeasurable mass, from the court stood up, bowed down to the Buddha's feet, and bowed at the feet of Bodhisattva Maitreya. Ceremony and circumambulation, around Buddha and Bodhisattva Maitreya hundreds of thousands of rounds. Those who have not yet attained enlightenment, make a clear vow: "All of us gods, multiplying by eight feet..., now before the Buddha, make a sincere vow, vowing in the future life, longing to meet Maitreya Bodhisattva. In this present life, we long to, give up this sambhogakaya, to be born in the Tusita heaven."
35. At that time, the World-Honored One received the sign that: "All of you and all living beings in the future, cultivating happiness and maintaining precepts, will all be able to come before Maitreya Bodhisattva, and be accepted by the Bodhisattva."
36. The Buddha said to Mr. Uu Ba Ly: "Visualization like that is called righteous contemplation. If the shop is different, it is called the wrong shop."
37. After the Buddha taught, venerable Ananda stood up from the court, folded his hands, knelt straight, and said to the Buddha: "Dear World Honored One. On behalf of the Blessed One, the Blessed One spoke clearly about the merits of Maitreya Bodhisattva. The World-Honored One also gladly accepted the sign for sentient beings in the future life, who truly cultivate happiness, will receive retribution. I rejoice in these virtues. Please, Lord, tell me about the importance of this teaching, how do I receive it? And, what is the name of this sutra?"
38. The Buddha immediately told Mr. Ananda that: "You should remember exactly what the Buddha taught, and should be careful, don't forget! He needed it for the sake of sentient beings in the next life, to open the way for them to be born in heaven, and to show them the sign of bodhi, so that the Buddha race would not be cut off. This sutra is called the Maitreya Bodhisattva Nirvana Sutra. It is also the Sutra of Quan Mai Maitreya Bodhisattva Born Tu Surat Thien. He advises everyone to generate bodhicitta and uphold it like that."
39. When the Buddha said, ten thousand bodhisattvas from far away, they immediately testified to the Shurangama Tam Mui. Eighty thousand billions of gods in the heavens who have generated bodhicitta, all vow to follow Maitreya to be born.
40. When the Buddha finished this sutra, the four groups of disciples, Thien, Long ... eight sets, listened to the Buddha's words, were very happy, worshiped the Buddha and retired.
