The First Converts

13．最早的皈依者

The Blessed One tarried in solitude seven times seven days,
enjoying the bliss of emancipation. [1]

至福者七天之中獨處七次，享受著解脫的喜樂。 1

At that time Tapussa and Bhallika, two merchants, came traveling on the road near by,
and when they saw the great samana, majestic and full of peace,
they approached him respectfully and offered him rice cakes and honey. [2]

當時有兩個商人跋陀羅斯那和跋陀羅梨，他們旅游經過此地，當他們看到威嚴、平和的偉大出家人，便滿懷敬意走過來送給他米餅和蜂蜜。 2

This was the first food that the Enlightened One ate after he attained Buddhahood. [3]

這是覺悟者成佛之後所吃的第一份食物。 3

And the Buddha addressed them and pointed out to them the way of salvation.
The two merchants, conceiving in their minds the holiness of the conqueror of Mara,
bowed down in reverence and said:
"We take our refuge, Lord, in the Blessed One and in the Dharma." [4]

佛陀向他們講述佛法，給他們指出解脫之道。兩個商人心中理解了這位征服魔王波旬的聖人，他們恭敬地向他鞠躬，說道：「我們在至福者中、在佛法中找到了庇護之所。」 4

Tapussa and Bhallika were the first that became followers of the Buddha
and they were lay disciples. [5]

跋陀羅斯那和跋陀羅梨是佛陀的第一批追隨者，他們是俗家弟子。 5
