金光明經文句記 1.242

1.242

初、約經配四德。以大乘人了知五戒體是心性，若受若持一一順性。性具四德，故五無非常樂我淨，此總對也。亦可以五別對四德。心與眾生性無生滅，是故順性持不殺戒，是佩長生不死符印，此常德也。心與眾生性無婬亂，故順本性持不婬戒，名出入無亂。心與眾生念念真實無虛妄間，是故順性持不妄語戒，名往還無間。此二對淨德也。心與眾生性非昏醉，故順本性持不飲酒戒，名統御一身，即我德也。心與眾生性即菩提離貪求苦，故順本性持不盜戒，名立道根，即樂德也。

First, based on the sūtra, matching with the four virtues. Because a person of the Great Vehicle clearly understands that the substance of the five precepts is the nature of mind, whether receiving or upholding them, each accords with this nature. The nature possesses the four virtues; therefore, not one of the five is anything other than permanence, bliss, self, and purity. This is the general correspondence. One can also match the five individually to the four virtues: The nature of mind and sentient beings has no arising or ceasing; therefore, upholding the precept of non-killing in accordance with nature is wearing the talisman and seal of longevity and immortality—this is the virtue of permanence. The nature of mind and sentient beings is without lustful disorder; therefore, upholding the precept of non-unchastity in accordance with the original nature is called entering and leaving without disorder. The nature of mind and sentient beings is thought-moment after thought-moment real, without any gap of falsehood; therefore, upholding the precept of non-false speech in accordance with nature is called going and returning without gap. These two correspond to the virtue of purity. The nature of mind and sentient beings is not intoxicated; therefore, upholding the precept of non-drinking in accordance with the original nature is called governing the entire body—this is the virtue of self. The nature of mind and sentient beings is bodhi itself, free from the suffering of craving; therefore, upholding the precept of non-stealing in accordance with the original nature is called establishing the root of the path—this is the virtue of bliss.
