如是我聞：一時佛住摩鳩羅山，尊者那伽波羅為親侍者。

爾時世尊於夜闇時天小微雨，電光睒現，出於房外，露地經行。

是時天帝釋作是念：

今日世尊住摩鳩羅山，尊者那伽波羅親侍供養，其夜闇冥，天時微雨，電光睒現，世尊出房，露地經行，我當化作毘琉 瑠 璃 重閣，執持重閣，隨佛經行。

作是念已，即便化作鞞琉璃重閣，持詣佛所，稽首佛足，隨佛經行。爾時摩竭提國人若男若女，夜啼之時以摩鳩羅鬼恐之即止。親侍供養弟子之法，待師禪覺，然後乃眠。爾時世尊為天帝釋夜經行久。

爾時尊者那伽波羅作是念：

世尊今夜經行至久，我今當作摩鳩羅鬼形而恐怖之！

時那伽波羅比丘即反被俱執，長毛在外，往在世尊經行道頭，白佛言：

摩鳩羅鬼來！摩鳩羅鬼來！

爾時世尊告那伽波羅比丘：

汝那伽波羅愚癡人，以摩鳩羅鬼神像恐怖佛耶？不能動如來、應、等正覺一毛髮也，如來、應、等正覺久離恐怖！

爾時天帝釋白佛言：

世尊！世尊正法、律中亦復有此人耶？

佛言：

憍尸迦！瞿曇家中極大廣闊，斯等於未來世亦當使得清淨之法。

爾時世尊即說偈言：

若復婆羅門於自所得法 得到於彼岸若一毘舍遮 及與摩鳩羅皆悉超過去 若復婆羅門於自所行法 一切諸受覺觀察皆已滅 若復婆羅門自法度彼岸 一切諸因緣皆悉已滅盡 若復婆羅門自法度彼岸 一切諸人我皆悉已滅盡 若復婆羅門自法度彼岸 於生老病死皆悉已超過

佛說此經已，釋提桓因聞佛所說，歡喜隨喜，稽首佛足，即沒不現。
