維摩經略疏 5.13

5.13

「汝不至之也」，三、呵不先入定觀其根源。是諸比丘久種大乘善法名之為根，本所值佛初因發心即是源也。滿願既無無量無作八定，是故不見比丘根源。有障應說大乘對治，云何妄為說小治之，令其厭苦而求於滅。「彼自無瘡勿傷之也」，即是譬顯。此諸比丘發大心來，所有善根未有意著小乘法瘡，忽為說小令生念著，即傷大乘善法根也。

From "You do not" to "it" is the third [part], rebuking him for not first entering samādhi to contemplate their root source. That these monks had long planted the wholesome dharmas of the Mahāyāna is called the "root"; the buddhas they originally encountered and their initial arising of the aspiration as a cause is the "source." Since Pūrṇa lacked the immeasurable and unconditioned eight samādhis, he therefore did not perceive the monks' root source. When there are obstructions, one should expound the Mahāyāna therapeutics; why did he mistakenly preach the small [vehicle] to treat them, causing them to loathe suffering and seek cessation? "Where there is no wound, do not injure it" is an illustration using a metaphor. Since these monks brought forth the great mind, of all their wholesome roots, none had any wound of attachment to the Hīnayāna Dharma; suddenly preaching the small [vehicle] to them caused them to generate clinging thoughts, which injured the roots of the wholesome dharmas of the Mahāyāna.
