### [3.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1782.3.15)

贊曰：此有三德。一欲解皆圓德，大願成滿故。〈菩薩地〉說，初發心時唯發一願，願得菩提利樂一切。《勝鬘》一願，攝受正法。《唯識》二願，求菩提願、利樂他願。《勝鬘》三願，《彌勒上生》四弘正願，初地十願，又復菩薩恒沙別願。有經說是金粟如來，故願皆漏。二善達機器德。善知意樂，意業也。及行者，身語也。知其心願及其所行，善逗益故。三善逗機宜德。知根勝劣，說五乘故。此第三德，舊名「心趣」，三業是所趣，意亦圓也。

> Commentary: Here there are three virtues. First, the virtue of aspiration and understanding being completely perfected, because his great vows are fulfilled. The Bodhisattvabhūmi states that upon first generating the mind \[of awakening\], one makes only a single vow: vowing to attain bodhi and benefit and bring joy to all. The Śrīmālādevī-sūtra has one vow: accepting the true Dharma. The Vijñaptimātratā teachings have two vows: the vow to seek bodhi and the vow to benefit and bring joy to others. The Śrīmālādevī-sūtra has three vows, the Maitreya-upapatti-sūtra has four great universal vows, the first bhūmi has ten vows, and furthermore bodhisattvas have individual vows as numerous as the sands of the Ganges. Some sūtras say that he is the Tathāgata Golden Grain (Jinsu), and therefore all his vows are fully realized. Second, the virtue of skillfully understanding vessels and capacities: 'skillfully knowing their inclinations' refers to mental karma; 'and their practices' refers to bodily and verbal karma. He knows their mental aspirations and their actions, skillfully adapting to benefit them. Third, the virtue of skillfully adapting to suitable capacities: knowing the sharpness and dullness of their faculties, he preaches the five vehicles. This third virtue was called 'the inclinations of the mind' in the old translation; the three karmas are what is inclined toward, and the mind is also fully encompassed.
