維摩經略疏 6.69

6.69

「樂隨護」下，四、勸修道諦。文為三：一修行本、二正行、三遍行。一修行本者，「樂隨護道意」，此勸自行善。善護道心，道心不壞，以道自娛即是法樂。「樂饒益眾生」者，即勸化他。如父母見子離苦得樂，父母亦樂。「樂敬養師」者，捨父從師，師成勝德，敬師道法翫味娛神即是法樂，知恩敬養報德暢懷亦是法樂。是則內修自行化他，外有明師開導，因緣具足無行不成，所求稱心即是法樂。

From "Delighting in following and guarding" onward, fourth, urging the cultivation of the truth of the path. The text has three parts: first, the basis of practice; second, the primary practice; third, the pervasive practice. As for the first, the basis of practice: "delighting in following and guarding the thought of the path" urges the good of one's own practice. Well guarding the mind of the path so that the mind of the path is not ruined, entertaining oneself with the path is itself the joy of the Dharma. "Delighting in benefiting sentient beings" urges transforming others. It is like parents seeing their child leave suffering and attain joy; the parents are also joyful. "Delighting in respectfully providing for one's teacher": leaving one's father to follow a teacher, the teacher perfects superior virtues; revering the teacher's path and Dharma, relishing it and delighting one's spirit is itself the joy of the Dharma; knowing kindness, respectfully providing for him, and repaying virtue to satisfy one's heart is also the joy of the Dharma. Thus, internally cultivating one's own practice and transforming others, and externally having an enlightened teacher to guide and instruct, conditions are fully complete and no practice fails to be accomplished; having one's desires fulfilled is itself the joy of the Dharma.
