維摩經略疏 5.80

5.80

「時維摩」下，三、正述被彈之事。文為五：一正彈呵、二為解釋、三廣示出家功德、四結真出家、五勸諸長者子出家。初文彈呵不許說者，此有三意：一既是密行，何得更說出家之利？乃是自顯，何名密行？二歎小乘出家功德狹劣，不稱長者子大乘根緣。三若說形服出家功德，諸長者子既各有礙，終不得此形服出家。有此三失，故被彈云不應為說。

From "Then Vimalakīrti..." down: third, directly relating the matter of being rebuked. The text has five parts: first, directly rebuking; second, explaining it; third, broadly showing the merit of leaving home; fourth, concluding on true leaving home; fifth, exhorting the sons of elders to leave home. The first passage rebukes him and does not permit him to speak; this has three meanings: first, since it is an esoteric practice, how could he further speak of the benefits of leaving home? That would be displaying himself; how could it be called esoteric practice? Second, he praised the narrow and inferior merit of leaving home in the Hīnayāna, which did not suit the Mahāyāna capacities of the elders' sons. Third, if he spoke of the merit of leaving home in outward form and dress, since the elders' sons each had their own hindrances, in the end they could not leave home in this outward form and dress. Because of these three faults, he was rebuked with the words that he should not speak of it.
