§35 宝箧镜喻

(35) the mirror in a valuable case

昔有一人，贫穷困乏，多负人债，无以可偿，即便逃避。至空旷处，值箧，满中珍宝。有一明镜，著珍宝上，以盖覆之。贫人见已，心大欢喜，即便发之。见镜中人，便生惊怖，叉手语言：“我谓空箧，都无所有；不知有君在此箧中，莫见嗔也。”

once upon a time there was a poor and weary man who was always in debt. insolvent, he hid himself in the wilderness where he found a valuable case full of precious things. a crystal mirror covered them. the poor man was most delighted to see them. he did not hesitate to take them. but he was frightened when he discovered a man's image in the mirror. twisting his hands, he said, "i thought it was nothing more than on empty case. i wasn't aware of your being in the case. don't get angry with me!" he then gave up the whole case.

凡夫之人，亦复如是。为无量烦恼之所穷困，而为生死、魔王、债主之所缠著。欲避生死，入佛法中修行善法，作诸功德，如值宝箧。为身见镜之所惑乱，妄见有我，即便封著，谓是珍宝。于是堕落，失诸功德，禅定道品、无漏诸善、三乘道果，一切都失。如彼愚人，弃于宝箧，著我见者，亦复如是。
