注維摩詰經 2.324

2.324

肇曰：迦葉以貧人昔不植福故生貧里，若今不積善，後復彌甚。愍其長苦，多就乞食。淨名以其捨富從貧，故譏迦葉不普也。生曰：從貧乞，本以悲為主，故先呵其悲偏也。夫貧苦為切既交，自應在先，何偏之有哉？於不達者為偏耳（故得寄之以為呵也。言夫大悲以普為主）。而用之有偏，良在可怪也。

[Seng]zhao says: Because the poor did not plant merit in the past, they were born into poor lanes; if they do not accumulate good now, it will be even worse later. Pitying their prolonged suffering, he mostly approached them to beg for food. Because he abandoned the rich to follow the poor, Pure Name criticized Kāśyapa for not being universal. [Dao]sheng says: Begging from the poor fundamentally takes compassion as primary; thus [Vimalakīrti] first rebukes the partiality of his compassion. Now, since the suffering of poverty is so pressing and acute, it should naturally take precedence—what partiality is there? To one who has not penetrated, it appears partial (hence it can be taken as grounds for rebuke; the point is that great compassion takes universality as primary). Yet applying it with partiality is truly questionable.
