金光明最勝王經疏 4.80

4.80

靜慮之中亦有三：一安住靜慮、二引發靜慮、三辦事靜慮。此中第一是安住，於諸善品攝令不散。住定輕安等故名安住，引發神通諸功德等名引發。能辦自他利益之事名辦事故。第二常願解脫，解脫即八解脫。於空有邊能不住者，引解脫故。第三願得神通，即六神通，由現神通令諸眾生捨邪歸正集諸善根。此二即引發靜慮。四為淨法界除心垢者，心通二種，能緣慮心并第一義心。為淨法界，即第一義心。依定能除二心垢故，此為自利。五為斷眾生煩惱根本，此即利他。此後二種是辦事靜慮，能辦自他利益事故，非唯緣事名辦事，事謂事業業用。然諸處說變大地為金等為辦事者，且約外利事說。

Dhyāna also has three types: first, peaceful-dwelling dhyāna; second, generating dhyāna; third, matter-accomplishing dhyāna. Among these, the first is peaceful-dwelling: gathering all wholesome qualities so that they do not scatter. Dwelling in meditative stabilization, pliancy, and the like is called 'peaceful dwelling'. Generating supernormal powers, all virtues, and the like is called 'generating'. Being able to accomplish activities that benefit oneself and others is called 'matter-accomplishing'. Second, constantly aspiring to liberation refers to the eight liberations. Being able not to abide in the extremes of emptiness and existence is due to inducing liberation. Third, aspiring to attain supernormal powers refers to the six supernormal powers; by manifesting supernormal powers, one causes sentient beings to renounce falsehood and turn to the correct path, accumulating all wholesome roots. These two are generating dhyāna. Fourth, eliminating mental defilements in order to purify the dharmadhātu: mind has two meanings: the mind that can cognize and reflect, and the mind of ultimate reality. In order to purify the dharmadhātu refers to the mind of ultimate reality. Because relying on meditative stabilization can remove the defilements of both minds, this constitutes self-benefit. Fifth, eradicating the root of sentient beings' afflictions constitutes benefiting others. These latter two are matter-accomplishing dhyāna, because they can accomplish matters of benefiting oneself and others. 'Accomplishing matters' is not merely taking matters as cognitive objects; 'matters' means activities and active functions. However, when various treatises speak of transforming the great earth into gold and the like as 'matter-accomplishing', this is tentatively stated from the viewpoint of external beneficial affairs.
