二、「目者」下,隨文釋義,二:初、歎色功德,二:初、事釋,二:初、總釋,二:初、正解。「肝悲」等者,《白虎通》曰「肝繫於目,肺繫於鼻,心繫於口,脾繫於舌,腎繫於耳。」今且準凡而擬於聖。凡夫悲時必內動於肝,然後目中有淚,故曰肝悲則目淚。荊溪云:如來即以利物表悲。利必在智,故眼表智,肝表於定,智動定用猶如肝悲則目淚也。「大論」等者,荊溪云:既悲生於智,智由於定,定用即悲智用也。肝悲目淚,況之可知。

Second, from "the eyes are" downwards, sequential explanation of the meaning according to the text, in two: first, praising the merit of form, in two: first, explanation based on phenomena, in two: first, general explanation, in two: first, correct explanation. Regarding "the liver grieves," etc.: the Baihu Tong says, 'The liver is connected to the eyes, the lungs to the nose, the heart to the mouth, the spleen to the tongue, and the kidneys to the ears.' Now, we provisionally take the ordinary to infer the sage. When an ordinary person grieves, it must internally stir the liver, and thereafter there are tears in the eyes; hence it is said that when the liver grieves, the eyes tear. Jingxi states: "The Tathāgata precisely takes benefiting beings to represent compassion. Benefiting must reside in wisdom; hence the eyes represent wisdom, and the liver represents concentration. Wisdom stirring the functioning of concentration is just like the liver grieving causing the eyes to tear." Regarding "the Great Treatise," etc.: Jingxi states: "Since compassion is born from wisdom, and wisdom depends on concentration, the functioning of concentration is precisely the functioning of compassion and wisdom. That the liver grieves and the eyes tear can be known by this analogy."
