斯里

斯里（巴利语：သိရိ或සිරි或សិរិ Siri），又译作师利（梵文：𑖫𑖿𑖨𑖱 Śrī，藏体：ཤྲཱི，天城体：श्री）、室利、尸利、“西”、“师里”、“斯瑞”等，是源自于梵文的前缀词语，常在东亚、东南亚、南亚的佛教、印度教、耆那教地区以及俄罗斯佛教地区使用。

斯里的本意是“光明”、“荣耀”、“光荣”、“美观”，引申义有“庄严”、“吉祥”，古文佛典里多音译作师利、室利或意译作吉祥、庄严、威德，如文殊师利菩萨（Mañjuśri），又译曼殊室利菩萨，意译“妙吉祥”；大吉祥天女（Mahāśrī）也译为“摩诃室利”。而用在人名前时，应译作“先生”、“女士”，或“吉”、“圣”，亦可不译（有时这个词在一些人名面前会被重复多次，以示尊敬）^[1]；如斯瑞·奥罗宾多（Śrī Arabinda）。在地名前时，常意译作“圣”、“吉”，或不译，有时也有译作“斯里”、“师里”等。这个词在神灵名称前时翻译为“圣”。斯里的词根原指一神灵。^[2]^[3]
