俱舍論頌疏論本 22.24

22.24

Explanation: When one is about to approach the path of seeing the truths, one should first abide in moral discipline, and thereafter diligently cultivate the wisdom produced by hearing, reflection, and cultivation. Because it is wisdom produced through hearing, reflection, and cultivation, the wisdom is called "produced". Based on the wisdom produced by hearing, one gives rise to the wisdom produced by reflection; based on the wisdom produced by reflection, one gives rise to the wisdom produced by cultivation. / Question: "What is the distinction among the three wisdoms?" / Answer: "The wisdom produced by hearing takes only names as its object, because it is not yet able to leave aside the letter to contemplate the meaning. The wisdom produced by reflection takes both name and meaning as its object, because it has not yet completely left aside the letter to contemplate the meaning. The verse says 'both', meaning name and meaning. The wisdom produced by cultivation takes only meaning as its object, because it is already able to leave aside the letter to contemplate the meaning."
