注維摩詰經 8.146

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [8.146](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.8.146)

什曰：欲令聞而信者發道心也。此三事，請飯之意也。肇曰：餘，卑遜言也。彼土因香以通大道；此國眾生志意狹劣，故請香飯之餘，以弘佛事也。

> \[Kumāra\]jīva says: He wishes to cause those who hear and believe to arouse the aspiration for awakening. These three matters are the purpose of requesting the food. \[Seng\]zhao says: 'Remnants' is an expression of humility. That land uses fragrance to open up the Great Way; sentient beings of this realm have narrow and inferior aspirations, so he requests the remnants of the fragrant food to broadly carry out buddha-work.
