妙法蓮華經文句 3.82

3.82

凡人於面起欲能生猗樂，然後遍身。又九處流穢，面有七孔，以不淨治欲，故繫緣在面（其一）。又六識在面，心多上緣，表一切賢聖尚空與空相應故，繫緣在面（其二）。又若觀於面則能分別六識，為分別故故繫緣在面（其三）。又身有六分，頭面為勝，表諸法中實相第一，第一法故繫緣在面（其四）。

Ordinary people produce desire regarding the face, which can generate clinging and pleasure, and then spreads through the whole body. Furthermore, of the nine places that discharge filth, the face has seven orifices; using impurity to remedy desire, mindfulness is therefore fastened at the face (first explanation). Furthermore, the six consciousnesses are at the face, and the mind mostly conditions upward; this represents that all worthies and āryas esteem emptiness and correspond with emptiness, so mindfulness is fastened at the face (second explanation). Furthermore, if one contemplates the face, one can distinguish the six consciousnesses; for the sake of differentiation, mindfulness is fastened at the face (third explanation). Furthermore, the body has six parts, and the head and face are the most prominent; this represents that among all dharmas the real mark is foremost; because it is the foremost dharma, mindfulness is fastened at the face (fourth explanation).
