### [7.74](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.7.74)

「雖身至方便」，二、明照應身權疾之境，即是方便智也。何者？「雖身有疾」，即是菩薩法身惑累未盡，猶有無明變易實疾。「常在生死」者，即是應身常在界內外生死。所以常在者，為饒益一切而無厭惓，是名方便，即照權境為權智也。

> "Although the body... to ...skillful means" is, second, clarifying the illumination of the object of the responsive body's conventional illness, which is skillful means wisdom. Why? "Although the body has an illness" means that the encumbrances of affliction of the bodhisattva's dharmakāya are not yet exhausted, and there is still the real illness of the transformative death of ignorance. "Always remaining in saṃsāra" means that the responsive body always remains in saṃsāra both within and outside the realms. As for why one always remains, it is to benefit all without weariness; this is called skillful means, which is illuminating the conventional object as conventional wisdom.
