大般涅槃經集解 2.45

2.45

Huilang states: "Without rescue or protection": below this, the purport of the earlier announcement by voice is brought up. "Rescue" brings up the earlier phrase on pity and great kindness. "Protection" brings up the earlier phrase on sheltering protection and great compassion. "Impoverished" brings up the earlier regarding them with equanimity like Rāhula, the function of great kindness. It means that Rāhula has already attained the wealth of Dharma, whereas we now have not yet attained it, and the Buddha is relinquishing us—this is precisely impoverishment. "Without any object of veneration" brings up the earlier acting as a refuge. "Solitary and exposed" brings up the earlier acting as a shelter for the world, the function of great compassion. "All at once estranged" brings up the earlier that the Greatly Awakened World-Honoured One is about to enter nirvāṇa. "If we have doubts and confusion" brings up the earlier that all may ask now. Therefore, they ought to restrain themselves and go quickly, go quickly.
