給吒經 給吒居士子事 如是我聞。一時，世尊住在那爛陀（Nālandā）的波婆利迦芒果林中。那時，給吒居士子來到世尊所在之處。來到后，向世尊禮拜，然後坐在一旁。坐在一旁的給吒居士子對世尊如是說："尊者，這個那爛陀既富裕又繁榮，人口眾多，擁擠不堪，對世尊深具信心。尊者，請世尊指示一位比丘，他將展示超人法的神通神變；這樣，那爛陀就會更加信服世尊。"世尊聽后對給吒居士子如是說："給吒，我不是這樣教導比丘的法——'來吧，諸比丘，你們為穿白衣的在家人展示超人法的神通神變。'" 給吒居士子第二次對世尊如是說："尊者，我不是要誹謗世尊；但是，我是這樣說的——'尊者，這個那爛陀既富裕又繁榮，人口眾多，擁擠不堪，對世尊深具信心。尊者，請世尊指示一位比丘，他將展示超人法的神通神變；這樣，那爛陀就會更加信服世尊。'"世尊第二次對給吒居士子如是說："給吒，我不是這樣教導比丘的法——'來吧，諸比丘，你們為穿白衣的在家人展示超人法的神通神變。'" 給吒居士子第三次對世尊如是說："尊者，我不是要誹謗世尊；但是，我是這樣說的——'尊者，這個那爛陀既富裕又繁榮，人口眾多，擁擠不堪，對世尊深具信心。尊者，請世尊指示一位比丘，他將展示超人法的神通神變。這樣，那爛陀就會更加信服世尊。'" 神通神變 "給吒，有三種神變是我親自證知、實現並宣說的。哪三種？神通神變、他心通神變、教誡神變。
