四分律行事鈔資持記 2.1509

2.1509

三成就門，約心中，初二句標示。謂分四心，以明二止；三心中止，此科所明；行心中止，則如後述。統論四行，唯止持通二；自餘三行，竝局行心。一下，正明，初立義。此中但明一種，望後約行，故標一耳。注簡四心，顯示分二所以。識謂了別所緣境（通指六識。），想謂取所領之相，受謂領納所緣。（上曰善惡未著，故云非業。）行謂造作之心，能取於果。（思心成業，善惡乃異，故云別因。餘如別述。）田下，示立所以。三心非業，本不名持；但望受體，說有持義。受下，遮疑。以持是記業，無記非持故。（此由古謂但不作惡，即名上持；今約四心，分為二別，則無前濫。）

In the third, the section on accomplishment, in "In Terms of Mind," the first two lines state the rubric. That is, the four minds are distinguished to clarify the two cessations; cessation in the three minds is what this heading explains; cessation in the active mind will be described below. In comprehensively discussing the four practices, only cessation-maintenance applies to both; the remaining three practices are all restricted to the active mind. From "One..." onward, the direct explanation: first, the thesis is established. Here only one kind is explained, marked as "one" in view of the subsequent "in terms of practice." The note differentiates the four minds to show the reason for distinguishing the two. Consciousness means discerning the cognitive object (referring generally to the six consciousnesses); conception means grasping the marks of what is experienced; feeling means experiencing what is cognized. (The above are said to have wholesome and unwholesome not yet manifest, hence called "not karma.") Formation [or volition] means the mind that constructs actions, capable of grasping the fruit. (The volitional mind accomplishes karma, and wholesome and unwholesome are then distinct; hence called "distinct causes." The rest is as described elsewhere.) From "Field..." onward, the reason for establishing it is shown. The three minds are not karma and originally not called maintenance; but in view of the reception-essence, they are said to have the meaning of maintenance. From "Reception..." onward, doubts are precluded. Because maintenance is indeterminate/determinate karma, and indeterminate [non-karmic states] are not maintenance. (This is because the ancients held that simply not committing evil is called superior maintenance; now distinguishing two differences in terms of the four minds prevents the previous confusion.)
