法華玄贊義決 1.102

1.102

見六趣中有說閻羅王，准《華嚴經》則別立趣。《華嚴經》云：令諸眾生離閻羅王趣枷栙等苦。又言令諸眾生離地獄、畜生、餓鬼及閻羅王四惡趣苦。以此文證，故別立趣。若准《伽論》第二，劫初成滿已，有一有情起增上雜染業，生那落迦中作靜息王。既言生彼，故知彼攝。今謂不爾，若許彼趣攝，應受彼趣苦；若受彼趣苦，何能治罰彼趣有情？故《二十唯識》云：何緣不許獄率等類是實有情，不應理故；且彼不應那落迦攝，不受如彼所受苦故，乃至應自不能忍受鐵地炎熱猛焰恒燒燃苦，云何於彼能逼害他等？以此故知非彼趣攝。然《華嚴》云及閻羅王四惡趣苦者，以王臣別開為一趣，據實鬼趣如修羅趣於天別開，《瑜伽論》云：生那落迦中作靜息王者，判彼趣故。又應云生那落迦作靜息王所判有情，不爾，便違《二十唯識》及餘經論是鬼趣故。

In seeing the six destinies, some say that King Yama is established as a separate destiny according to the Avataṃsaka-sūtra. The Avataṃsaka-sūtra states: "Causing sentient beings to be freed from the sufferings of the cangues and locks of King Yama's destiny." It also states: "Causing sentient beings to be freed from the sufferings of the four evil destinies: hell, animal, hungry ghost, and King Yama." Taking this text as evidence, a separate destiny is established. But according to the second fascicle of the Yogācāra-bhūmi, after the initial formation of the kalpa was complete, a sentient being gave rise to excessive defiled karma and was born in Naraka to become the King of Pacification. Since it says "born there," know that he is subsumed by it. I now say this is not so: if it is conceded that he is subsumed by that destiny, he ought to experience the suffering of that destiny; and if he experienced the suffering of that destiny, how could he punish the sentient beings of that destiny? Thus the Viṃśatikā-vijñaptimātratā states: "For what reason is it not conceded that the hell-wardens and their kind are real sentient beings? Because it is unreasonable; furthermore, they cannot be subsumed under Naraka, because they do not experience suffering such as that experienced there; up to, they should themselves be unable to endure the suffering of being constantly burned by the fiercely blazing flames of the iron ground—how could they torment others there?" By this, know that he is not subsumed by that destiny. However, when the Avataṃsaka mentions "and the suffering of the four evil destinies of King Yama," it separates the king and ministers into an individual destiny; in reality it belongs to the ghost destiny, just as the asura destiny is separately distinguished from the devas. The Yogācāra-bhūmi states "born in Naraka to become the King of Pacification" because he judges that destiny. Or it should say "sentient beings judged by the King of Pacification born in Naraka"; otherwise, it would contradict the Viṃśatikā-vijñaptimātratā and other sūtras and treatises stating that he belongs to the ghost destiny.
