注維摩詰經 1.254

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.254](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.1.254)

什曰：上以身力供養，今以心口供養。上以財養，今以法養。復次眾雖見其變，未知變之所由，欲令推宗有在、信樂彌深，故以偈讚也。肇曰：形敬不足以寫心，故復讚之詠之者矣。

> \[Kumāra\]jīva says: Previously he made offerings with physical effort; now he makes offerings with mind and mouth. Previously he supported him with wealth; now he supports him with the Dharma. Furthermore, although the assembly saw the transformation, they did not know its cause; wishing to make them recognise where the ultimate principle rests so that their faith and joy would become ever deeper, he therefore praised him in verse.  
> \[Seng\]zhao says: Bodily respect was insufficient to express his mind, hence he further praised and chanted it.
