妙法蓮華經玄義 1.42

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.42](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.1.42)

小聞於大，恥小而慕大，是為頓資小；佛命善吉轉教，大益菩薩，是為漸資頓。

> When the lesser hears the great, feeling ashamed of the lesser and admiring the great, this is the sudden supporting the lesser; when the Buddha commands Subhūti to transmit the teaching, greatly benefiting bodhisattvas, this is the gradual supporting the sudden.
