維摩經略疏 9.24

9.24

「示入至因緣」，六、明示受人間果報苦道非道通達佛道。此有八句，初七示受人間報、後一總明現入諸道。前七是受四天下諸受，此諸果報皆是非道，而從空入假修如幻等四種三昧，未具佛法，終不滅此諸受而取證也。後一句「現遍入諸道而斷其因緣」者，世間諸道不出其六，此文未明修羅六欲，若受此道亦是苦道非道，而修歡喜三昧及不動等六種三昧，未具佛法，終不滅此果報受而取證，即能通達佛道。言斷其因緣者，得二十五三昧，能破二十五有，即是斷其因緣。復次現遍入諸道，即是遍入十法界道。斷其因緣者，斷四教菩薩因緣三道。

From "manifesting entry" to "causes and conditions," sixth, this explains manifesting the receipt of human retribution—the non-path of the path of suffering—to reach the Buddha Path. This consists of eight phrases: the first seven manifest receiving human retribution, and the last one generally explains universally entering the various paths. The first seven pertain to receiving the various experiences of the four continents. These retributions are all non-paths; yet entering provisionality from emptiness, one cultivates the four kinds of samādhi such as the illusion-like [samādhi], and not having fully perfected the Buddha-Dharma, one ultimately does not extinguish these experiences to realize realization. As for the last phrase, "universally entering all paths and severing their causes and conditions": the worldly paths do not exceed the six [destinies]. This text has not yet explicitly mentioned asuras and the six desire [heavens]; if one receives these paths, they are also the non-path of the path of suffering. Yet cultivating the six kinds of samādhi such as the joy samādhi and the immovable [samādhi], not having fully perfected the Buddha-Dharma, one ultimately does not extinguish these retribution-experiences to realize realization, thus being able to reach the Buddha Path. As for "severing their causes and conditions," attaining the twenty-five samādhis can destroy the twenty-five realms of existence, which is precisely severing their causes and conditions. Furthermore, universally entering all paths means universally entering the paths of the ten dharma-realms. Severing their causes and conditions means severing the three paths of causes and conditions for bodhisattvas of the four teachings.
