妙法蓮華經玄贊 7.55

7.55

贊曰：下第三大段有三十頌半頌合說。中分二：初二十頌半頌昔不悕合，後有十頌頌今獲得合。初合中長行有五，不合中還見佛。今此頌中唯頌示大不悕合，餘略不頌。前長行中示大不悕有三，今此亦爾：初二頌頌初，知我樂小佛不說我得故不悕。次有八頌頌第三，但為菩薩說不正為我說故不悕。後十頌半頌第二，自得涅槃謂已滿足故不悕。此初也。未曾說言汝等作佛，於佛妙智我亦有分，但說我等得諸無漏是聲聞弟子，故我不悕。

Commentary: The third major section below comprises thirty and a half verses, which summarize and match [the prose]. Within this there are two parts: first, twenty and a half verses summarize the previous lack of aspiration and match it; subsequently, ten verses summarize the present attainment and match it. In the initial matching, there were five [points] in the prose; in the lack of matching, there was again seeing the Buddha. Here in these verses, it only summarizes the revelation of the Great and the lack of aspiration in matching, while the rest is abbreviated and not versified. In the previous prose, the revelation of the Great and lack of aspiration had three [aspects], and here it is likewise: the first two verses summarize the first—knowing that we delighted in the small, the Buddha did not declare that we would attain it, hence we did not aspire to it. Next, eight verses summarize the third—only expounding for the bodhisattvas and not expounding directly for us, hence we did not aspire. The final ten and a half verses summarize the second—having personally attained nirvāṇa, we deemed it already satisfactory, hence we did not aspire. This is the first. He had never said, 'You shall become buddhas, and you too have a share in the Buddha's wondrous wisdom'; he only said that we attained the various uncontaminated states and were śrāvaka disciples; therefore we did not aspire.
