請觀音經疏闡義鈔 2.68

2.68

釋由序中，初、標文出意。「就事」下，分二：初、約事消經。「如淨名疏中」者，略如前記。經「舌噤」，渠飲切，謂不能言也。「眼主」等者，《白虎通》云「肝繫於目，肺繫於鼻，心繫於口，脾繫於舌，腎繫於耳。」故知經云「舌噤無聲」，即心脾二藏病也。無聲，是口不能言，故主心病，此即肉團心也。「腹內為病」者，腹屬身故。「意識」，即慮知心也。「五根不利」者，「根」應作「藏」，字之誤也。謂五藏不利，外應五根成病惱也。此約病從內出。

In explaining the opening section: first, setting forth the text and bringing out its intention. From "Regarding phenomena" below, it divides into two: first, interpreting the sūtra in terms of phenomena. "As in the Vimalakīrti Commentary": this is briefly as noted previously. In the sūtra, "tongues locked" (jin, pronounced qu-yin cut) means being unable to speak. Regarding "the eyes govern" and so forth, the Baihu tong states: "The liver is tied to the eyes, the lungs are tied to the nose, the heart is tied to the mouth, the spleen is tied to the tongue, and the kidneys are tied to the ears." Thus we know that when the sūtra says "the tongues are locked and soundless," it refers to an illness of the two viscera of the heart and spleen. "Soundless" means the mouth cannot speak, so it governs heart illness; this refers to the physical heart of flesh. "Illness within the abdomen": because the abdomen belongs to the body. "Mental consciousness": this refers to the thinking and knowing mind. Regarding "the five sense faculties are impaired," "faculties" (gen) should be "viscera" (zang), an error in the character. It means that the five viscera are impaired, which externally corresponds to the five sense faculties, causing illness and affliction. This treats illness arising from within.
