說無垢稱經疏 5.274

5.274

贊曰：下喻明顯。有二譬喻：初明力大能逼、後明力敵能逼。此初文也。諸七地前為大乞者，猶如螢火，位居小故，不能逼迫；大施菩薩，猶如日輪，威勢大故。八地以上解脫菩薩，方能大乞而行逼迫，威力大故，亦方大施，非前位能。

Commentary: Next, elucidating through similes. There are two similes: first, clarifying that great power can oppress; second, clarifying that matching power can oppress. This is the first passage. Those prior to the seventh bhūmi who act as great beggars are like fireflies: because their stage is low, they cannot oppress. The bodhisattvas of great giving are like the solar disc, because their august power is immense. Only bodhisattvas of the eighth bhūmi and above who are established in vimokṣa can act as great beggars and carry out such oppression, because their awe-inspiring power is great; and only they can perform great giving, which is beyond the capacity of earlier stages.
