金光明最勝王經疏 3.400

3.400

贊曰：此一頌讚斷他生死德。言暴流者，即四暴流：一欲暴流，即欲界修惑；二有，即上二界修惑；三見，即三界見道煩惱；四無明暴流，即三界見修無明。準此，前三皆除無明。然諸論中說惑為暴流，據因；此說生死苦為暴流，即談果也。或可因果合名生死，老病憂愁漂溺有情如暴流，深廣難度如苦海。《瑜伽論》第七十云「五法相似生死大海，得大海名。一處所無邊相似故；二甚深相似故；三難度相似故；四不可食相似故，此意大海俱苦皆不可食，生死亦爾，皆不可樂；五大寶所依相似故（此意一切眾寶皆依於海，於生死中方得三乘功德故也）。」五義之中，今取前四云難堪忍，佛慧日光爍令涸竭。

The Commentary states: This verse praises the virtue of severing others' saṃsāra. When it mentions 'violent torrent,' it refers to the four violent torrents: 1. the violent torrent of desire, which is the afflictions abandoned by cultivation in the desire realm; 2. [the violent torrent of] existence, which is the afflictions abandoned by cultivation in the upper two realms; 3. [the violent torrent of] views, which is the afflictions abandoned by vision in the three realms; 4. the violent torrent of ignorance, which is ignorance of vision and cultivation in the three realms. Accordingly, the first three all exclude ignorance. However, treatises explain afflictions as violent torrents based on the cause; here, explaining the suffering of saṃsāra as a violent torrent speaks of the result. Or else cause and effect are combined under the name of saṃsāra, where old age, sickness, and sorrow drift and drown sentient beings like a violent torrent, deep and wide and difficult to cross like an ocean of suffering. Fascicle seventy of the *Yogācārabhūmi-śāstra* says: "There are five things similar between the great ocean of saṃsāra and what receives the name of great ocean: 1. because their locations are similarly boundless; 2. because they are similarly profound; 3. because they are similarly difficult to cross; 4. because they are similarly inedible—this means that the great ocean is completely bitter and cannot be drunk, and saṃsāra is likewise entirely joyless; 5. because they are similarly what great treasures rely upon (the meaning is that all treasures rely upon the ocean, and only within saṃsāra are the merits of the three vehicles obtained)." Among these five meanings, here the first four are taken, saying it is difficult to endure, and the sunlight of the Buddha's wisdom shines and causes it to dry up.
