妙法蓮華經文句 1.104

1.104

觀入、界者，凡言海者，雖復深廣亦有此彼岸，蓋小水耳；若眼見色已，愛念染著貪樂，起身、口、意業者，是為大海，沈沒一切世間天、人、修羅。當知眼是大海，色是濤波，愛此色故是洄澓，於中起不善覺是惡魚龍，起妬害是男羅剎，起染愛是女鬼，起身、口、意是飲醎自沒，是為眼色無知而生無明愛，愛生故名為行；行生故名為業，業縛識入中陰，是為識生；所受胞胎五疱未成，是為名色生；五疱成已名六入生；六入未能別苦樂，名為觸生；別苦樂名受生；於塵起染名愛生；四方馳求名取生；造身、口、意名有生；應受未來五陰，名生生；未來陰變名老生，未來陰壞名死生，心中內熱名憂生，發聲大喚名悲生，身心顦悸名苦惱生。是名眼見色時即有三世十二因緣大苦聚生，非不生。耳、鼻、舌、身、意，眼界乃至法界亦如是，是為入界生，非不生。

Regarding contemplation of the sense bases and elements: Whenever one speaks of an ocean, though it is deep and vast, it still has this shore and that shore; it is merely a small body of water. If, after the eye sees form, one develops affection, defiled attachment, covetousness, and delight, and gives rise to bodily, verbal, and mental karmas, this is the great ocean that drowns all devas, humans, and asuras in the world. One should know that the eye is the great ocean, form is the billowing waves, loving this form is the whirlpool, giving rise to unwholesome thoughts within it is the vicious fish and dragons, giving rise to jealousy and harm is the male rākṣasa, giving rise to defiled love is the female ghost, and initiating actions of body, speech, and mind is drinking salt water and drowning oneself. This is ignorance regarding eye and form giving rise to nescience and craving; because craving arises, it is called volitional formations; because volitional formations arise, they are called karma; karma binds consciousness to enter the intermediate existence, which is the arising of consciousness. When receiving the womb and the five vesicles have not yet formed, this is the arising of name-and-form; once the five vesicles are formed, it is called the arising of the six sense bases; when the six sense bases cannot yet distinguish suffering from pleasure, it is called the arising of contact; distinguishing suffering from pleasure is called the arising of feeling; giving rise to defilement toward sensory dusts is called the arising of craving; racing in all directions seeking is called the arising of grasping; creating bodily, verbal, and mental actions is called the arising of becoming; being destined to receive future five aggregates is called the arising of birth; changes in future aggregates are called the arising of aging; the destruction of future aggregates is called the arising of death; inner heat in the mind is called the arising of sorrow; crying out aloud is called the arising of lamentation; and emaciation and trembling of body and mind are called the arising of suffering and distress. This is called: when the eye sees form, there arises the great mass of suffering of the twelve links of dependent origination across the three times, not non-arising. The ear, nose, tongue, body, and mind, the eye element up to the dharma element, are also like this. This is the arising of sense bases and elements, not non-arising.
