### [1.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1507.1.23)

云施有二種：有信施、有恐怖施。立根得忍，則曰信施。威力逼迫不由本心，則名恐怖施。信則成度，畏則求福，道俗之殊不待言而自別也。其人云：頭目施者，七住已上；財物施者，六住已下。從此退者，不墮生死，要至涅槃耳。何以明之？大品本無說，中云六十菩薩得羅漢道，此其事。

> It is said that giving is of two kinds: there is giving out of faith, and there is giving out of fear. Establishing roots and attaining endurance is called giving out of faith. When forced by awe-inspiring power not from one's original mind, it is called giving out of fear. Faith accomplishes deliverance, while fear seeks merit; the distinction between the sacred and the worldly differentiates itself without awaiting words. That person said: Giving of head and eyes belongs to the seventh stage and above; giving of wealth belongs to the sixth stage and below. Those who fall back from this do not fall into birth and death, but will definitely reach nirvāṇa. How is this made clear? The Original Non-existence \[chapter\] of the Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra states in the middle that sixty bodhisattvas attained the way of an arhat; this is the matter.
