俱舍論疏 1.42

1.42

論「眾生於中至拔濟令出」，釋恩德也。眾生於中淪沒，無救出悲境。世尊哀愍，是大悲也。隨授所應正法教手，巧便智也。拔濟令出，悲事成也。《顯宗論》云「諸有成就巧智大悲，授如應言，拔濟令出。」此即由悲故欲救，由巧智故能救。大悲、巧智名雖不同，是佛利他有漏智攝，為恩德體。兼取隨行，義如常釋。

The Śāstra states: "[Sattvas sink] in it […] pulls them out to save [them]," which explains the virtue of benevolence. "Sattvas sink in it" without rescue: this is the object of compassion. The World-Honoured One's pity is great compassion (mahākaruṇā). Extending in accord [with their needs] the hand of the true Dharma's teaching is skillful wisdom (upāya-jñāna). Pulling them out to save them is the accomplishment of the work of compassion. The *Xianzong lun* states: "All who possess skillful wisdom and great compassion extend words as appropriate and pull them out to save them." This means that due to compassion one wishes to save, and due to skillful wisdom one is able to save. Although the names "great compassion" and "skillful wisdom" differ, they are subsumed under the Buddha's sāsrava wisdom that benefits others, serving as the essence of the virtue of benevolence. Taking also their concomitants, the meaning is as ordinarily explained.
