大般涅槃經義記 4.339

4.339

第五段中，辯明如來德行窮滿，諸過已盡，超過餘人，故無有病。於中有二：第一汎舉三種病人；二從「迦葉有五人」下就前三中廣辯第二，對之以顯如來無病。前三人者，凡夫為一、二乘為二、菩薩為三。先明凡夫，「世有三人，其病難治」總以標舉，「謗」等列名，「如是三」下顯難治相，於中初法、次喻、後合。次明聲聞，先喻、後合。下明菩薩，先喻、次合、後辯具相。問曰：此是何處菩薩？下〈師子〉中宣說是其六住菩薩。如《地持》說，種性初住、解行第二、淨心第三、行跡第四、決定第五、畢竟第六，此六是其定聚所攝，故值善友、不值善友，若得聞法、若不聞法，定得菩提。若復通論，善趣亦是，故為怖畏、利養、諛諂、誑他等事書寫是經。

In the fifth section, it discriminates and clarifies that the Tathāgata's virtuous conduct is thoroughly fulfilled, all faults have been exhausted, and he surpasses other people, so he has no illness. Therein are two parts: first, broadly bringing up three kinds of sick people; second, from 'Kāśyapa, there are five people' onward, broadly discriminating the second among the previous three, contrasting it to reveal the Tathāgata's freedom from illness. The former three people are: ordinary beings as the first, the two vehicles as the second, and bodhisattvas as the third. First, clarifying ordinary beings: 'There are three people in the world whose illnesses are difficult to cure' generally designates them; 'slandering...' and so forth lists their names; from 'such three...' onward reveals the characteristics of being difficult to cure, wherein there is first the dharma, next a simile, and then the application. Next, it clarifies śrāvakas, first with a simile and then the application. Below, it clarifies bodhisattvas, first with a simile, next the application, and then discriminating the full characteristics. Question: Which stage of bodhisattva is this? Below, in the 'Lion' [chapter], it is proclaimed that this is the bodhisattva of the six abodes. As the *Bodhisattvabhūmi* states: gotra is the first abode, adhimukticaryā is the second, pure mind is the third, caryāpratipatti is the fourth, determination is the fifth, and ultimate is the sixth. These six are subsumed under the category of the definitely determined; therefore, whether meeting a good spiritual friend or not, and whether hearing the Dharma or not, they are definitely destined to attain bodhi. If discussed comprehensively, the good destinies are also included, which is why [people] copy this sūtra out of fear, gain, flattery, deceiving others, and such matters.
