Visuddhimagga VII-60

Bhāgyavatāya cassa satapuññalakkhaṇadharassa rūpakāyasampatti dīpitā hoti.

以「具吉祥」是说明他的百福特相的色身成就,

Ñ(VII,60): And by his fortunateness (bhāgyavatā) is indicated the excellence of his material body which bears a hundred characteristics of merit;



Bhaggadosatāya dhammakāyasampatti.

以「破恶」是说明他的法身成就。

Ñ: and by his having abolished defects (bhaggadosatā) is indicated the excellence of his Dhamma body.



Tathā lokiyasarikkhakānaṃ bahumatabhāvo, gahaṭṭhapabbajitehi abhigamanīyatā, abhigatānañca nesaṃ kāyacittadukkhāpanayane paṭibalabhāvo, āmisadānadhammadānehi upakāritā, lokiyalokuttarasukhehi ca saṃyojanasamatthatā dīpitā hoti.

如是(具吉祥与破恶)是说明为世人及巧智人之所尊敬,为在家及出家者之所亲近,能令亲近他的人除去身心的痛苦,为财施及法施的饶益者,及说明可与世间与出世间的快乐。

Ñ: Likewise, [by his fortunateness is indicated] the esteem of worldly [people; and by his having abolished defects, the esteem of] those who resemble him. [And by his fortunateness it is indicated] that he is fit to be relied on by laymen; and [by his having abolished defects that he is fit to be relied on by] those gone forth into homelessness; and when both have relied on him, they acquire relief from bodily and mental pain as well as help with both material and Dhamma gifts, and they are rendered capable of finding both mundane and supramundane bliss.
