說無垢稱經疏 2.36

2.36

Commentary: The upper two phrases praise the virtue of obtaining the noble treasures. The lower two phrases reveal the virtue of departing from bad dharmas. Teaching, principle, practice, and fruit—these dharmas are precious and esteemed, hence called 'treasures.' Among the treasures of the Dharma, wisdom is the foremost, because it can guide all dharmas. On the eighth ground and above, being capable of, contemplating, and retaining all dharmas, having long accumulated the three wisdoms, this is called 'gathering.' Since wisdom has long been accumulated, they can act as great leaders; if one lacks wisdom, one cannot be a leader. Alternatively, the wealth and treasures of the noble ones are the seven noble treasures, namely faith, morality, learning, relinquishment, wisdom, shame, and remorse. Although they possess these Dharma treasures, wisdom is foremost; having long gathered them, they can serve as leaders. The ancient sūtra said, 'gathering the numerous treasures of the Dharma.' The text was general and lacked wisdom, making it hard to be a leader. Being without flattery or pride is called upright; being neither coarse nor careless is called deliberate; being neither deceitful nor perverse is called gentle; penetrating the fine and knowing the deep is called subtle. These lower two phrases were absent in the ancient sūtra.
