Visuddhimagga VIII-68

Tatrāyaṃ upamā –

这是个有关的譬喻；

Ñ(VIII,68): Here is a simile.

yathā hi dvattiṃsatālake tālavane vasantaṃ makkaṭaṃ gahetukāmo luddo ādimhi ṭhitatālassa paṇṇaṃ sarena vijjhitvā ukkuṭṭhiṃ kareyya, atha kho so makkaṭo paṭipāṭiyā tasmiṃ tasmiṃ tāle patitvā pariyantatālameva gaccheyya, tatthapi gantvā luddena tatheva kate puna teneva nayena āditālaṃ āgaccheyya,

即譬如要捕捉住在三十二株多罗树所形成的多罗林中的猕猴的猎师，最初以弓矢射穿那猕猴所居的多罗树叶及作呼喊之声，此时那猕猴便顺次于多罗树上一一的跳去而至最后的多罗树；猎师亦追至那里行其同样的方法，而彼（猕猴）又以同样的方法逃回最初的多罗树。

Ñ: Suppose a hunter wanted to catch a monkey that lived in a grove of thirty-two palms, and he shot an arrow through a leaf of the palm that stood at the beginning and gave a shout; then the monkey went leaping successively from palm to palm till it reached the last palm; and when the hunter went there too and did as before, it came back in like manner to the first palm;

so evaṃ punappunaṃ paripātiyamāno ukkuṭṭhukkuṭṭhiṭṭhāneyeva uṭṭhahitvā anukkamena ekasmiṃ tāle nipatitvā tassa vemajjhe makuḷatālapaṇṇasūciṃ daḷhaṃ gahetvā vijjhiyamānopi na uṭṭhaheyya,

如是由于各处屡起喊声，令彼（猕猴）数数次第奔跳，终于停止一多罗树上，坚持那中央最嫩的多罗叶，纵使（弓矢）射去之时它也不起了。

Ñ: and being followed thus again and again, after leaping from each place where a shout was given, it eventually jumped on to one palm, and firmly seizing the palm shoot's leaf spike in the middle, would not leap any more even when shot—

evaṃsampadamidaṃ daṭṭhabbaṃ.

当知这（与三十二分身的次第撤去）是相似的。

Ñ: so it is with this.
