妙法蓮華經玄義 7.21

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [7.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.7.21)

按位益者，本是麁果，地上清涼，即成理妙之益。按於麁因之益，即是觀行妙益。按麁學無學益，即是相似妙益。開麁即妙，不須進入。通、別，例此可知。

> Regarding benefit by retaining one's position: what was originally the coarse fruition—coolness on the ground—immediately becomes the benefit of the subtlety of principle. Retaining the position of the benefit of coarse causes is precisely the subtle benefit of contemplation practice. Retaining the position of the coarse benefit of those in training and beyond training is precisely the subtle benefit of resemblance. When the coarse is opened, it is immediately subtle, without needing to advance. The shared and distinctive \[teachings\] can be understood by analogy with this.
