### [40.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.40.28)

案僧亮曰：說五種持經，以明出世。何者？餘經所說未究竟故不備。持之行惡，令人謗經。持經起惡，雖能自利，不能利人，非出世菩薩；是以佛但令出世持經，應究行之義。

> Sengliang states: He speaks of the five kinds of upholding the sūtra to clarify transcending the world. Why? Because what is expounded in other sūtras is not yet ultimate, it is not complete. Upholding it while committing evil causes people to slander the sūtra. Upholding the sūtra while giving rise to evil, although able to benefit oneself, cannot benefit others, and is not a supramundane bodhisattva; therefore the Buddha only commands that one uphold the sūtra supramundanely, in accordance with the meaning of ultimate practice.
