妙法蓮華經玄義 3.29

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [3.29](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.3.29)

三、辨相者，天竺世智，極至非想。此間所宗，要在忠孝、五行、六藝、天文、地理、醫方、卜相、兵法、貨法、草木千種皆識，禽獸萬品知名。又塗左割右等無憎愛。獲根本定，發五神通，停河在耳，變釋為羊，納吐風雲，捫摸日月。法是世間法，定是不動定，慧是不動出。邀名利、增見愛，世心所知，故名世智也。

> Third, discerning their characteristics: worldly wisdom in India reaches at most up to \[the heaven of\] neither-perception-nor-non-perception. What is prized here \[in China\] is centered on loyalty and filial piety, the five elements, the six arts, astronomy, geography, medicine, divination, physiognomy, military strategy, commerce, knowing a thousand kinds of herbs and trees, and recognizing the names of ten thousand sorts of birds and beasts. Furthermore, having no hatred or love when smearing the left \[arm with sandal paste\] or severing the right, attaining the fundamental concentrations, generating the five supernormal knowledges, stopping a river in the ear, turning Indra into a sheep, inhaling and exhaling wind and clouds, and stroking the sun and moon. The dharmas are worldly dharmas; the concentration is immovable concentration; the wisdom is immovable emergence. Seeking fame and profit, increasing views and craving, known by the worldly mind—therefore it is called worldly wisdom.
