金光明最勝王經疏 1.109

1.109

贊曰：十二、利他不虛德。梵云底利瞿尼多，此義譯為傍生。梵云那麗多，義譯云餓鬼，亦云閉戾多。梵云末奴沙，義譯云人。天趣、修羅、那落迦，三趣之名及六趣義，如本《法華疏》。善知根性，而於五道以現其身，善巧方便力現形說法，其見聞者無不蒙益。由能成就四種法故，能化眾生皆蒙利益，故《思益》第一云「一常求利安眾生、二自捨己樂、三心和忍、四除憍慢。」

Commentary: The twelfth virtue: unvainly benefiting others. In Sanskrit tiryag-yoni, which translated according to its meaning is 'animals'. In Sanskrit preta, translated according to its meaning as 'hungry ghosts', also termed pretāḥ. In Sanskrit manuṣya, translated according to its meaning as 'humans'. The names of the three destinies of devas, asuras, and narakas, as well as the meaning of the six destinies, are as in our Commentary on the Saddharmapuṇḍarīka. Skillfully knowing mental dispositions, they manifest their bodies within the five destinies, manifesting forms and preaching the Dharma through the power of skillful means, so that none among those who see or hear them fail to receive benefit. Because they are able to accomplish four dharmas, they can transform sentient beings so that all receive benefit. Thus the first fascicle of the Viśeṣacintabrahmaparipṛcchā states: '1. Always seeking to benefit and bring peace to sentient beings; 2. personally relinquishing one's own pleasure; 3. having a harmonious and patient mind; 4. eradicating arrogance.'
