目莲是佛陀弟子中神通第一的目犍莲尊者,目莲是个既孝顺又很有慈悲心的人,从小就诚心向佛,后来出家当了和尚,他虔心习佛,修行日渐高深,甚至具有神通眼的能力.
因为惦念过世的母亲,他用神通看到其母因在世时的贪念业报,死后堕落在的恶鬼道,过著吃不饱的生活,正在地狱里遭受饿鬼倒悬的苦刑.
目犍莲於是千辛万苦赶往地狱,用他的神力化成食物,以钵盛饭给母亲充饥,但其母不改贪念,见到食物到来,深怕其他恶鬼抢食,贪念一起食物到她口中立即化成火炭,无法下咽.
目犍莲虽有神通,身为人子,却救不了其母,十分痛苦,看著自己的母亲受煎熬,内心真是痛苦不堪,便立刻求佛祖指点他营救母亲脱离苦海,请教佛陀如何是好.
佛陀说：“你母亲生前自私刻薄,不做善事,生前罪孽太深重了所以才会有这种报应.要救她,不是你独自一人办得到的.七月十五日是结夏安居修行的最后一日,法善充满,你必须在七月十五日当天,为各地的出家人准备百味五果,供养他们.这样,集合了所有僧侣及众神的威力,不但可以救你的母亲脱离苦海,早日投胎,也可以解救别人的父母,让他们也脱离苦难.”佛为他念《盂兰盆经》,嘱咐他七月十五作盂兰盆以祭其母.
