8.162

什曰:薰義有三,一大悲果報、二悲心所念、三以慈眼視之。生曰:使人得悟,為外薰也,豈曰食能大悲力矣。然則飯之為氣,大悲所薰矣。

[Kumāra]jīva says: The meaning of 'perfuming' has three aspects: first, the retribution-fruit of great compassion; second, being minded with compassionate intent; third, beholding them with the eye of benevolence. [Dao]sheng says: Causing people to gain awakening is external perfuming; how could one say that the food itself has the power of great compassion? Yet the fragrance of the food is perfumed by great compassion.
