分別功德論 1.26

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1507.1.26)

作善惡行者，謂精進作諸善功德。惡行者，猶昔火鬘童子誹迦葉佛言：「禿頭沙門何有道？道難得，能得道也？」由是後受六年勤苦方乃得道。遺法之中，諸比丘常諍，此猶口不可言而言報也。六年苦行者，不可行而行報也。是為菩薩身口惡行也。

> "Performing good and bad actions" means vigorously performing all good merits. As for "bad actions", it is like in the past when the youth Uttara reviled Kāśyapa Buddha, saying: "What Way does this bald-headed śramaṇa have? The Way is hard to attain; can he attain the Way?" Because of this, he later suffered six years of bitter toil before finally attaining the Way. In the bequeathed Dharma, the monks are constantly disputing; this is the retribution for speaking words that should not be spoken with the mouth. The six years of austerities were the retribution for practicing what should not be practiced. These are the bodily and verbal bad actions of the bodhisattva.
