俱舍論疏 19.99

19.99

On the text stating, "Such as Maheśvara... falsely generating the clinging to a path": this specifies individual instances to explain it. Namely, there are those who hold that Maheśvara and the like, or throwing oneself into water and fire, and various such wrong practices, are causes for being born in heaven; or, within the Buddha-dharma, merely taking and maintaining precepts; or various non-Buddhists who hold the knowledge associated with Sāṃkhya (enumeration), as well as clinging to the self, and so forth, which are not paths to liberation, falsely generating the clinging that they are paths—all of these are called the grasping of precepts and vows. The *Nyāyānusāra* explains that the cause of birth in heaven is called the path of higher rebirth (abhyudaya), while the cause of liberation is called the path of definitive goodness (niḥśreyasa).
