俱舍論疏 22.158

22.158

論「喜足少欲至欲貪為性」，此明能治及明所治界繫體性廣狹不同。故《正理論》云「謂欲界繫善心相應喜足、少欲，是欲界繫，二界無漏例此應說。所治二種唯欲界繫。以何證知？色、無色界亦有能治喜足、少欲，以現見有生在欲界，從色、無色等引起時，所治二種現行遠故，能治二種現行增故。」

On the Śāstra's statement: "Contentment and few desires [...] have desire-greed as their nature": This explains that the antidotes and what is to be countered differ in their realm-bindings, intrinsic natures, and breadth. Therefore the Nyāyānusāra says: "Contentment and few desires associated with wholesome minds bound to the desire realm are bound to the desire realm; those of the [other] two realms and the untainted (anāsrava) should be stated by analogy with this. The two kinds of things to be countered are bound solely to the desire realm. By what evidence is this known? That the form and formless realms also possess the antidotes—contentment and few desires—is evident from the fact that when one born in the desire realm brings forth [equipoise] from the form or formless realm, the active occurrence of the two things to be countered becomes distant, while the active occurrence of the two antidotes increases."
