大般涅槃經集解 35.8

35.8

Sengzong comments: Kāśyapa is the master who requested the Dharma, and he himself speaks of the characteristics of cultivation.
Fayao says: Although holy action was explained above, its excellence was not yet exhausted. This section broadly clarifies how profound the yearning for the Dharma is, such that relinquishing one's body and life is not considered difficult. By cultivating holy action with such a renouncing mind, what could fail to be fully prepared? By such ascetic practice, in what circumstance could one retreat? The difficulty of holy action is none greater than this; hence this practice is used to conclude holy action.
