6.309

贊曰:自下第四子遂憂惶。有三:一子驚愕,二使逾急,三子悶絕。此初也。心不悕大行,名驚愕。「愕」音五各反,亦驚也。心口不伏、脩行求退,名稱怨大喚。我情不欲大,名不相犯。無端強授我之大乘,名何為見捉。

Commentary: From here below, the fourth section concerns the son then becoming alarmed and terrified. There are three parts: first, the son being startled and alarmed; second, the messenger becoming more urgent; third, the son fainting. This is the first. His heart not aspiring to the great practice is called 'startled and alarmed.' 'E' (愕) is pronounced with the fanqie wu-ge; it also means startled. His mind and mouth not submitting, seeking to retreat from cultivation, is called 'crying out in resentment and shouting loudly.' My inclination does not desire the great, which is called 'we have done each other no harm.' Forcibly conferring upon me this Great Vehicle without cause is called 'why am I being seized?'
