妙法蓮華經玄義 3.159

3.159

別者，如《涅槃》云：「五種之行，謂聖行、梵行、天行、嬰兒行、病行。」聖行有三：戒、定、慧。如經：「菩薩若聞大涅槃，聞已生信，作是思惟：諸佛世尊，有無上道，有大正法、大眾正行。」從此立行。「若聞大涅槃」即是信果，亦是信滅。「有無上道」已去，是信顯果之行。「無上道」是信慧；「有大正法」是信定；「大眾正行」是信戒。是名信因、信道。自傷己身及諸眾生，破戒造罪，失人天樂及涅槃樂，即是知集；往來生死，受惡道報，即是知苦；苦、集與戒、定、慧相違，即無道；無道故，不得涅槃，則無滅。

Regarding the distinct ones, the Nirvāṇa [Sūtra] says: 'The five kinds of practice are noble practice, pure practice, divine practice, infant-like practice, and sick practice.' Noble practice has three [aspects]: morality, concentration, and wisdom. As the sūtra says: 'If a bodhisattva hears the Great Nirvāṇa, having heard it, he generates faith and reflects thus: The Buddhas, World-Honoured Ones, have the unexcelled path, have the great correct Dharma, and have the correct practice of the great assembly.' Practice is established from this. 'Hearing the Great Nirvāṇa' is faith in the result, and also faith in cessation. From 'having the unexcelled path' onward is faith in the practice that reveals the result. 'Unexcelled path' is faith in wisdom; 'having the great correct Dharma' is faith in concentration; 'the correct practice of the great assembly' is faith in morality. These are called faith in cause and faith in the path. Lamenting that oneself and all sentient beings break the precepts, commit transgressions, and forfeit the bliss of humans, gods, and nirvāṇa is knowing the origin [of suffering]; wandering in birth and death and receiving retribution in evil destinies is knowing suffering; suffering and its origin conflict with morality, concentration, and wisdom, so there is no path; because there is no path, one does not attain nirvāṇa, and thus there is no cessation.
