疏「初偈悲智相導,度眾生而不疲」者,悲無大智,即成愛見。愛見悲者,則於生死有疲厭心。今劫海修行而無疲厭,明有智導矣。智若無悲,則多趣寂,名為下劣。今脫苦眾生,心無下劣,即有悲導矣。悲故能度,智故無疲。

Regarding the commentary's statement, “In the first verse, compassion and gnosis guide each other, delivering sentient beings without weariness”: if compassion lacks great gnosis, it turns into attachment and view. With the compassion of attachment and views, one will have a weary mind toward saṃsāra. Now, cultivating practice across oceans of kalpas without weariness shows that gnosis is guiding it. If gnosis lacks compassion, it mostly tends toward quiescence, which is called inferior. Now, in freeing sentient beings from suffering, the mind is not inferior, which means compassion is guiding it. Because of compassion, one can deliver; because of gnosis, there is no weariness.
