1.70

一、隨樂欲者,即是世界。如《智度論》云「一切善惡,欲為其本」,若說四門,若事、若理,但赴欲樂,皆是世界悉檀也。故此經云「先以欲鉤牽,後令入佛道」,是名世界悉檀也。

1. Accommodating desires: this is the worldly [siddhānta]. As the Dazhidu lun states, 'Desire is the root of all good and evil.' Whether expounding the four gates, or phenomena, or principle, as long as it responds to what one desires and delights in, it is entirely the worldly siddhānta. Thus this sūtra states, 'First entice them with desire, then lead them into the Buddha's path'; this is called the worldly siddhānta.
