妙法蓮華經文句 1.12

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.1.12)

夫分節經文悉是人情，蘭菊各擅其美，後生不應是非諍競，無三益、喪一道。三益者，世界等三悉檀也；一道者，第一義悉檀也。

> Dividing the scriptural text into sections is entirely a matter of human perspective, just as orchids and chrysanthemums each possess their own beauty. Later students should not engage in dispute over right and wrong, which produces none of the three benefits and loses the One Path. The three benefits refer to the three siddhāntas, such as the worldly siddhānta; the One Path refers to the paramārtha-siddhānta.
