1.638

旅亭,止客舍也。俶,始。前,進。遑,暇也。此明客義,怱怱不暇停住,喻分別煩惱數數造業,流轉五道,未曾暫息,三界旅泊受果始畢,又造新業,故云食宿事畢,俶裝前途。

An inn is a lodging house for guests. *Chu* (俶) means beginning. *Qian* (前) means advancing. *Huang* (遑) means leisure. This clarifies the meaning of a guest: bustling with no leisure to stop and stay, analogizing differentiated afflictions repeatedly creating karma and transmigrating through the five destinies without pausing even briefly; having just completed receiving retribution lodging in the three realms, one creates new karma again; therefore it says 'having finished lodging and eating, he packs his bags and takes to the road.'
