大方便佛報恩經 7.23

7.23

「云何菩薩至心聽法？聽法有四：一者，至心；二者，一心；三者，一切心；四者，善心。是名菩薩勤求十二部經。所以者何？念佛重恩，為欲流布諸佛正法，為欲增長諸佛法故，為令世間信佛法故，為令一切無量眾生悉得無上菩提道故，是故菩薩念十方無量諸眾生故，為報諸佛之重恩故，是故菩薩所以勤求十二部經。

"How does a bodhisattva wholeheartedly listen to the Dharma? There are four ways to listen to the Dharma: first, with the utmost mind; second, with a single mind; third, with all one's mind; fourth, with a good mind. This is called the bodhisattva diligently seeking the twelve divisions of scriptures. Why is this? Because he is mindful of the great kindness of the Buddhas, desires to spread the Saddharma of the Buddhas, desires to increase the dharmas of the Buddhas, desires to cause the world to have faith in the Buddha-Dharma, and desires to cause all immeasurable sentient beings to attain the path of unsurpassed bodhi; therefore, because the bodhisattva is mindful of the immeasurable sentient beings in the ten directions, and in order to repay the great kindness of the Buddhas, the bodhisattva diligently seeks the twelve divisions of scriptures.
