大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 56.11

56.11

疏「今海水劫火」下，第二會釋經文，可知。疏「勉旃」下，結勸引證。引證，即《涅槃》第六。因明菩薩忘犯護法，迦葉菩薩白佛言：「世尊！如是菩薩摩訶薩，於戒極緩，本所受戒為具在不？」佛言：「善男子！汝今不應作如是說。何以故？本所受戒如本不失。設有所犯，即應懺悔，悔已清淨。」乃至云「善男子！於乘緩者乃名為緩，於戒緩者不名為緩。菩薩摩訶薩於此大乘不作懈慢，是名奉戒，為護正法，以大乘水而自澡浴。是故菩薩雖現破戒，不名為緩。」釋曰：此意唯以大乘為乘，今疏文意亦取大乘正法為乘耳，故結勸云「留心法要」。旃，猶之也。

Under the Commentary's statement, "Now, the ocean water and kalpa-fire...," the second part harmonizes and explains the sūtra text; this is clear. Under the Commentary's statement, "Exert yourselves!", it concludes with an exhortation and adduces proof. Adducing proof refers to fascicle 6 of the Nirvāṇa [Sūtra]. Because of clarifying that bodhisattvas neglect infractions to protect the Dharma, Bodhisattva Kāśyapa said to the Buddha: "World-Honoured One, for a bodhisattva-mahāsattva such as this, who is extremely slack regarding the precepts, are the precepts originally received still intact or not?" The Buddha said: "Good son, you should not speak like this now. Why? The precepts originally received are not lost from their original state. If there is an infraction, he should immediately repent; having repented, he is pure." And it goes on to say: "Good son, one who is slack regarding the vehicle is called slack; one who is slack regarding the precepts is not called slack. A bodhisattva-mahāsattva who does not give way to laxity or pride regarding this Great Vehicle is said to uphold the precepts; in order to protect the True Dharma, he bathes himself in the water of the Great Vehicle. Therefore, although a bodhisattva appears to break precepts, he is not called slack." Explication: The intent here takes only the Great Vehicle as the vehicle; the intent of the present Commentary's text also takes the True Dharma of the Great Vehicle as the vehicle, which is why it concludes with the exhortation, "keep your mind on the essentials of the Dharma." Zhan (旃) is equivalent to zhi (之).
