四分律行事鈔資持記 2.118

2.118

示意中，初示廣斥之意。彼，即濫大不肖之者。塵蒙，謂邪言惡見，壞信喪道；猶如塵垢，穢於淨物故也。猶下，囑累。所謂素絲易染，朱紫難分；雖委曲指陳，猶未能知返。豈非禁情節欲，舉世之所難；縱意為非，是人之所欲。且祖師之世，其風尚然；況及于今，無足怪矣。

In explaining the intent: first, it indicates the intent of the broad rebuke. 'Those' refers to those unworthy people who falsely assume the great. 'Covered with dust' refers to heterodox words and evil views destroying faith and losing the Way, just as dust and grime defile a pure object. Below, 'Still' entrusts and charges [the audience]. As the saying goes: 'Plain white silk is easily dyed; vermilion and purple are hard to distinguish.' Although it has been pointed out and explained in detail, they are still unable to turn back. Is it not that restraining passions and moderating desires are what the whole world finds difficult, while indulging the mind and committing wrongdoing are what people desire? Even in the generation of the Patriarchal Master, the trend was already like this; how much more so down to the present day—it is not at all surprising.
