無量壽經連義述文贊 3.58

3.58

經曰「愛法樂法喜法之心」者，述云：此第六、修慧行也。有說：愛是欲，樂是信，喜是貪。有說：愛是終成，樂是聞時，喜是求時。二俱不然。欲信等即施戒等眷屬行故。以終向始無別所以，如其次第故。今即聞慧愛樂，故云愛法。思慧味著，故云樂法。修慧潤神，故云喜心。

The sūtra says: "A mind that loves the Dharma, delights in the Dharma, and rejoices in the Dharma." The commentary states: This is the sixth [part], practicing the conduct of wisdom. Some say: love is desire, delight is faith, and joy is attachment. Others say: love is the final fruition, delight is at the time of hearing, and joy is at the time of seeking. Neither is correct. For desire, faith, and the like are attendant practices of giving, morality, and so on; and proceeding from the end to the beginning lacks distinct justification, as it should follow their proper sequence. Here, [it means that] the wisdom of hearing loves and delights [in the Dharma], hence it says "loves the Dharma"; the wisdom of reflection relishes it, hence it says "delights in the Dharma"; the wisdom of cultivation nourishes the spirit, hence it says "a mind that rejoices [in the Dharma]."
