無量壽經連義述文贊 3.94

3.94

經曰「貧窮下劣」至「終身夭命」者，述云：此後、據貧窮以示貪過。有二：此初、示現苦也。有一少一者，有田少宅故。有是少是者，雖有田而不足故。思有齊者，思齊富貴故。糜者敗也。

The sūtra says: "The impoverished, lowly, and inferior" down to "cutting short their lives throughout their lifetimes." The commentary states: Next, it relies on poverty to show the fault of greed. There are two parts: this first reveals present suffering. "Having one and lacking one" means having a field but lacking a house. "Having this and lacking this" means that although one has a field, it is insufficient. "Thinking to be equal" means desiring to be equal to the wealthy and noble. "Mi" (糜) means ruined.
