維摩經略疏垂裕記 2.66

2.66

二、觀解。「若欲利物」者，圓教上根出假在觀行位，若蒙佛加化道無阻。「如風靡草」者，靡，偃也。能化如風，機緣如草。《論語》曰「君子之德風，小人之德草，草上之風必偃。」

Second, contemplation explanation. As for "if wishing to benefit beings": those of superior faculties of the perfect teaching who step out from emptiness into the provisional are at the rank of contemplation practice; if they receive the Buddha's empowerment, their path of transforming beings is unimpeded. As for "as wind bends the grass": mi means to bend. The transformer is like the wind; the faculties and conditions are like the grass. The Analects states: "The virtue of the gentleman is the wind, and the virtue of the petty person is the grass. The wind over the grass will surely make it bend."
