注大乘入楞伽經 9.74

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [9.74](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.9.74)

如來在鬼王宮中說法，諸夜叉等念食時欲至，非肉不食；欲令諸鬼生慈心故，請如來說食不食肉功德過失。即是會上一切諸佛心，佛心者慈悲是也。

> The Tathāgata was expounding the Dharma in the palace of the king of yakṣas. The various yakṣas and others thought that the time to eat was about to arrive, and they ate nothing but meat; wishing to cause the yakṣas to give rise to a compassionate mind, \[Mahāmati\] requested the Tathāgata to expound the merits and faults of eating and not eating meat. This is the mind of all Buddhas in the assembly; the Buddha's mind is loving-kindness and compassion.
