2.29
初、斥事持成犯。人天妄樂,為可意也。欲成理持乃斥事戒,故就所求果報而責有漏之樂。猶如糞中有菴羅果,有智童子不應求食。樂雜見思,如世美食雜以毒藥,食則害命,有觀智人所不應求。設得華報,心不甘嗜而生歡樂,云何凡夫為欲持戒?
First, reproaching phenomenal keeping as turning into a transgression. The delusional pleasures of humans and devas are deemed desirable. Wishing to establish keeping of principle, phenomenal precepts are reproached; thus, regarding the sought retribution, contaminated pleasure is rebuked. It is like an āmrāta fruit lying in dung: a wise youth should not seek to eat it. Pleasure mixed with view and thought [delusions] is like delicious worldly food mixed with poison; eating it harms life, so a person of contemplative wisdom should not seek it. Even if one obtains flower retribution, the heart does not relish it or give rise to joy; why then do ordinary people keep precepts for the sake of desire?
