妙法蓮華經玄贊 4.48

4.48

對治者，謂隨其相說對治法，《智度論》中立四悉檀，「悉檀」宗也，一世界悉檀、二各各為人悉檀、三對治悉檀、四第一義諦悉檀。劫濁、眾生濁，世界悉檀治之，識器世間眾生世間悉皆虛幻，厭怖脩道即永離故。命濁以各各為人悉檀治之，識知人由善業所得脩持淨戒行不殺等命自長故，或為三乘之人各說自乘之法，令得自乘涅槃之果，便除生死所有命濁。煩惱濁、見濁，對治悉檀治之，脩習隨應對治之道令不起故。由三悉檀破五濁故，入第一義證會真宗。

Antidotes: That is, speaking of antidotal methods according to their characteristics. In the *Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa* (*Zhìdù lùn*), four siddhāntas are established—'siddhānta' means fundamental tenet: 1. the worldly siddhānta; 2. the individual siddhānta; 3. the antidotal siddhānta; 4. the supreme-meaning truth siddhānta. The defilement of the kalpa and the defilement of sentient beings are countered by the worldly siddhānta: recognizing that the receptacle world and the world of sentient beings are entirely illusory, one feels aversion, dread, cultivates the path, and thereby leaves them forever. The defilement of lifespan is countered by the individual siddhānta: knowing that a human [existence] is obtained through wholesome karma, one cultivates and upholds pure precepts, practices non-killing, etc., and lifespan naturally increases; or, preaching the Dharma of their respective vehicles for the people of the three vehicles, causing them to attain the fruit of nirvāṇa of their own vehicle, one eliminates all the defilement of lifespan within saṃsāra. The defilement of afflictions and the defilement of views are countered by the antidotal siddhānta: cultivating the path of appropriate antidotes so that they do not arise. Because the five defilements are destroyed through the three siddhāntas, one enters the supreme meaning and realizes union with the true principle.
