注維摩詰經 3.171

3.171

什曰：以罪為罪則心自然生垢，心自然生垢則垢能累之，垢能累之則是罪垢眾生。不以罪為罪此即淨心，心淨則是淨眾生也。生曰：引佛語為證也。心垢者，封惑之情也。眾生垢者，心既有垢，罪必及之也。若能無封則為淨矣，其心既淨其罪亦除也。

[Kumāra]jīva says: "If one takes sin to be sin, then defilement arises naturally in the mind; when defilement arises naturally in the mind, defilement can encumber it; when defilement encumbers it, one is a sentient being of sinful defilement. Not taking sin to be sin—this is the pure mind; when the mind is pure, then the sentient being is pure." [Dao]sheng says: "He cites the Buddha's words as proof. 'The mind is defiled' refers to the sentiment of clinging and delusion. 'Sentient beings are defiled' means that once the mind has defilement, sin necessarily extends to them. If one is able to be without clinging, that is purity; once the mind is pure, its sin is also eliminated."
