### [3.158](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1708.3.158)

釋曰：第二、諸根不淨。謂於二十二根中，復觀十四根以為不淨。所謂眼等五根，有五識情，或可有情數攝，名五情根；五受根者，苦樂憂喜捨；及男女意命，皆是有漏，有無量過，故說十四皆為不淨。信等五根及三無漏，皆唯善性，過中不說，故觀行者觀十四根，即發無上菩提心也。

> Explanation: Second is the impurity of the faculties. This means that among the twenty-two faculties, one further contemplates fourteen faculties as impure. Namely, the five faculties of the eye and so forth possess the sentiment of the five consciousnesses, or alternatively are categorized as sentient, and are called the five sentimental faculties; the five feeling faculties are suffering, pleasure, grief, joy, and equanimity; together with the male, female, mental, and life faculties, all of these are defiled and possess boundless faults, so the fourteen are all spoken of as impure. The five faculties of faith and so forth and the three undefiled faculties are exclusively of a virtuous nature and are not spoken of among the faults; therefore, when the practitioner of contemplation contemplates the fourteen faculties, he immediately gives rise to the supreme mind of awakening.
