### [1.276](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1700.1.276)

述曰，此為第四進發信心，即是無著第三為令菩薩生慚愧也。謂說未來惡世，尚有眾生能生實相，況今現在菩薩聞說般若而不進修？謂惡人信解乃可希奇，菩薩受、持蓋不足嘆，故有此文也。就此文中，初、善現問，次、如來答。問中有三，初、標問，次、釋，後、結，此初也。

> The Commentary states: This is the fourth, advancing and arousing faithful mind, which corresponds to Asaṅga's third, causing bodhisattvas to arouse shame and conscience. It means that if it is said that in the future evil age there will still be sentient beings able to produce the true mark, how much more so should present bodhisattvas, hearing prajñā taught, advance and cultivate it? If an evil person's faith and understanding is indeed extraordinary, for a bodhisattva to receive and uphold it is hardly praiseworthy; hence this text appears. Within this text, first Subhūti asks, and next the Tathāgata answers. Within the question there are three parts: first, stating the question; second, explaining it; and finally, concluding it; this is the first.
