(三) 二施
(3) Two Types of Giving
1. 聞如是: 一時,佛在舍衞國、祇樹、給孤獨園。
Thus I have heard: One time, the Budha was staying at Anaathapindidas Ashrama in Jetavana of Shraavastii.
2. 爾時,世尊告諸比丘: 「有此二施。 云何為二? 所謂法施、財施。 諸比丘,施中之上者不過法施。
At that time, the Bhagavaan said to the bhikshus:
“There are two types of giving. What are these two?
They are Dharma giving and material giving.
Bhikshus, among all forms of giving, the highest and most supreme is none other than Dharma giving.
3. 是故,諸比丘,常當學法施。 如是,諸比丘,當作是學。
“Therefore, bhikksus, you should always practice Dharma giving.
Thus, bhikshus, you should train yourselves in this way.”
4. 爾時,諸比丘聞佛所説歡喜,奉行。
When the bhikshus heard what the Budha said, they followed it with joy.
