"The foremost among my bhikṣuṇīs in patience and forbearance, like the earth accepting all, is the bhikṣuṇī Dharmadinnā. The foremost in teaching and guiding others to establish dāna assemblies is the bhikṣuṇī Suyāma. The foremost in providing seats and beds is also the bhikṣuṇī Suyāma. The foremost in having a mind that is eternally at peace, without arising thoughts of disturbance, is the bhikṣuṇī Indrajā. The foremost in contemplating the dharmas without ever being satisfied is the bhikṣuṇī Nāgā. The foremost in having a strong and courageous mind, without attachment, is the bhikṣuṇī Kunāla. The foremost in entering the water samādhi to universally moisten all is the bhikṣuṇī Vasumitrā. The foremost in entering the flame-light samādhi to illuminate all beings is the bhikṣuṇī Gandhā. The foremost in contemplating the impurity of the body and discerning dependent origination is the bhikṣuṇī Cāpā. The foremost in nurturing and providing for the needs of the multitude is the bhikṣuṇī Gopā. The foremost among my bhikṣuṇīs in the future is the bhikṣuṇī Utpalavarṇā of the country of Kuśinagara." | 「我声闻中第一比丘尼，心怀忍辱，如地容受，所谓昙摩提比丘尼是。能教化人，使立檀会，所谓须夜摩比丘尼是。办具床座，亦是须夜摩比丘尼是。心已永息，不兴乱想，所谓因陀阇比丘尼是。观了诸法，而无厌足，所谓龙比丘尼是。意强勇猛，无所染著，所谓拘那罗比丘尼是。入水三昧，普润一切，所谓婆须比丘尼是。入焰光三昧，悉照萠类，所谓降提比丘尼是。观恶露不净，分别缘起，所谓遮波罗比丘尼是。育养众人，施与所乏，守迦比丘尼是。我声闻中最后第一比丘尼，拔陀军陀罗拘夷国比丘尼是。」 |

These fifty bhikṣuṇīs should be explained in detail as above. | 此五十比丘尼，当广说如上。 |
