注維摩詰經 2.37

2.37

什曰：海有三德，一曰深廣無邊、二曰清淨不受雜穢、三曰藏積無量珍寶。菩薩三德，義同海也。肇曰：海有五德，一澄淨不受死屍、二多出妙寶、三大龍注雨滴如車軸受而不溢、四風日不能竭、五淵深難測。大士心淨，不受毀戒之屍、出慧明之寶、佛大法雨受而不溢、魔邪風日不能虧損、其智淵深莫能測者，故曰心大如海。

[Kumāra]jīva says: The ocean has three virtues: first, it is deep, broad, and boundless; second, it is pure and does not admit miscellaneous defilements; third, it stores and accumulates immeasurable precious gems. The three virtues of a bodhisattva are identical in meaning to the ocean. [Seng]zhao says: The ocean has five virtues: first, it is limpid and does not admit dead corpses; second, it produces many wondrous treasures; third, when great dragons pour down rain in drops like wagon axles, it receives them without overflowing; fourth, wind and sun cannot exhaust it; fifth, its abyss is deep and hard to measure. The mahāsattva's mind is pure and does not admit the corpses of broken precepts; it produces the treasures of luminous wisdom; when the great Dharma-rain of the buddhas falls, it receives it without overflowing; the wind and sun of demonic heterodoxy cannot diminish it; and his wisdom is abyssal and immeasurable. Therefore it is said: 'His mind was vast as the ocean.'
