慈心功德经
南传大藏经《增支部》十一支 法增译
如是我闻：一时，佛在舍卫国，给孤独长者的祗树园精舍。世尊召集比丘们，然后对他们说：
比丘们，熟悉慈心观的行者将能证得心解脱。经常修习培育慈心的行者，长养慈心渐次掌握它，以慈心为方便并常珍惜它，心住于慈，身行于慈，该行者经过培育慈心后将能获得十一种利益。这些利益是:
（一）他睡时安稳；
（二）醒时精神舒畅；
（三）不做恶梦；
（四）人所敬爱；
（五）非人也敬爱；
（六）天神护卫；
（七）刀兵火毒不能侵害；
（八）心易入定；
（九）仪态安祥；
（十）死时心不颠倒；
（十一）今生若未证得罗汉果也将能生到梵天界。
比丘们，熟悉慈心观的行者将能证得心解脱。经常修习培育慈心的行者，长养慈心渐次掌握它，以慈心为方便并常珍惜它，心住于慈，身行于慈，该行者经过培育慈心后将能获得这十一种利益。佛陀说完已，众比丘皆欢喜信受。
《慈经》是佛陀关于对一切众生无限慈爱的开示，这部经广为人知，在很多仪式中，都会诵念这部经。
缘起：据记载，佛陀在世时，有群比丘在一座森林修行，受到了森林的精灵（他们大多数是树神）的困扰，导致他们无法好好禅修。最后，他们再也无法忍受时，便回到佛陀的住处，请求佛陀的帮助。
佛陀透过神通眼观察后，对比丘们说：「比丘们，除了那里，没有更适合的处所了。你们必须回到原来的地方。」
比丘们听了后便说：「回到原来的地方！这样仍然会受到树神的压迫，而无法禅修。佛陀，为什么您还要我们回那样的地方呢？」
佛陀回答：「之前你们到那里，是没有带着武器的，现在我将给予你们武器。你们带着武器回到同样的地方，继续练习禅修，那里是唯一的处所。」
佛陀给予他们的武器，就是无限爱心的修习法──慈心(Metta)。于是佛陀便为比丘们讲了这部经，比丘们在学习了慈心观的方法后，便返回森林，安心并顺利地禅修了。
功德：藉由唱诵此经所散发的慈心而克服种种障碍，为他们自己找到宁静和安乐，也帮助其他人这样修习而获得快乐。
