注維摩詰經 7.168

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [7.168](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.7.168)

什曰：味有四種，一出家離五欲、二行禪離憒亂煩惱、三智慧離妄想、四涅槃離生死。亦有二種解脫，一解脫煩惱、二解脫於閡也。亦云愛性無漏名之為渴，愛斷則得解脫。解脫止愛渴故名漿，四味亦以除愛渴故為漿也。肇曰：無漏甘露以充其體，八解脫法漿以潤其身也。生曰：愛為縛之本，以無厭為懷，若渴之須水，則大苦矣。若解脫之者，以無渴愛為漿，無苦為味也。

> \[Kumāra\]jīva says: There are four flavors: first, going forth to leave the five desires; second, practicing dhyāna to leave turmoil and afflictions; third, wisdom to leave false thinking; fourth, nirvāṇa to leave saṃsāra. There are also two kinds of liberation: first, liberation from afflictions; second, liberation from hindrances. It is also said that unoutpoured thirst is called the nature of craving; when craving is severed, one attains liberation. Because liberation quenches the thirst of craving, it is called syrup; the four flavors are also syrup because they eliminate the thirst of craving.  
> \[Seng\]zhao says: Unoutpoured amṛta fills their body; the Dharma-syrup of the eight liberations moistens their person.  
> \[Dao\]sheng says: Craving is the root of bondage, characterized by insatiability; like thirst needing water, it is great suffering. As for those who are liberated, non-craving serves as syrup, and absence of suffering serves as flavor.
