仁王護國般若波羅蜜多經疏 2.151

2.151

將釋此品，文分為三：初辯來意。謂前品初所申二問先陳果德，前品已明；次辯勝因，具彰於此，令修行者觀果修因欣仰進修，有此品矣。次釋品名。言菩薩者，如〈序品〉明。所言行者，起悲智也，修二利行無住道故。舊云「教化」，約利他門。得同體悲，利他即自，亦不違也。品第三者，無勞釋矣。從此第三分文解釋。於中分三：第一波斯匿王問、第二如來正答、第三聞法獲益。且初第一波斯匿王問。其義者何？

To explain this chapter, the text is divided into three parts: First, explaining the reason for its occurrence. That is, the two questions posed at the beginning of the previous chapter first set forth the virtues of the fruit, which was explained in the previous chapter. Next, the superior causes are distinguished and fully revealed here, causing practitioners to contemplate the fruit and cultivate the causes, looking up with joy and advancing in practice; hence there is this chapter. Second, explaining the title of the chapter. As for 'bodhisattva', it is explained in the 'Introductory Chapter'. As for 'practices', it refers to arousing compassion and wisdom, because one cultivates the practices of the two benefits without abiding in any path. The older tradition says 'teaching and transforming', referring to the aspect of benefiting others. Having attained the compassion of being of the same essence, benefiting others is itself benefiting oneself, so this is not contradictory. As for 'Chapter 3', there is no need to explain it. From here is the third [part]: dividing the text and explaining it. In this there are three parts: first, King Prasenajit's question; second, the Tathāgata's direct answer; third, hearing the Dharma and gaining benefits. First, King Prasenajit's question. What is its meaning?
