大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 35.77

35.77

On the commentary's "The next three lines are the beneficial actions of good persons": Good persons have five: 1. Exhorting and guiding sentient beings in the true meaning; 2. Exhorting and guiding at the appropriate time; 3. Exhorting and guiding in what is capable of being practiced to gather supreme and wonderful meanings; 4. Exhorting and guiding sentient beings gently; 5. Exhorting and guiding sentient beings with a mind of loving-kindness. These five characteristics are all the dharmas of great beings. 'Exhorting and guiding with a mind of loving-kindness' adduces the latter to encompass the former.
