10.218

今解，攝善法戒下及饒益有情戒不結第二問，但結住攝善法戒等，有何意也，義曰，唯略結文，以前例後，律儀戒中雙結說，例後二應知，故不說，更有餘釋，其別解脫律儀中初生起文中，但有住別解律儀言無善護別解戒言，下結文即雙結之有善護之言，其第三解饒益有情戒中，初生起但有住之一言無第二善修攝善法戒之言，其結文中即二種俱結，其第二攝善法戒生起，唯有住言，其結文中云名住攝善法戒速能攝善一切種相之言者，意即結善修攝善法戒之言也，以理準，別解脫戒即生起及結具足有二，其攝善饒生互有準例，攝善俱二結生起，但一饒生即有二結，準中二問開九故文不足，又釋，前問且三問，謂住律儀而能善護，此但義非有二問也，下饒生攝善準亦一問，故下解中生起及結亦只一種，無勞煩解。

yet in the present explanation, below the precepts of collecting wholesome dharmas and the precepts of benefiting sentient beings, it does not conclude the second question, but only concludes abiding in the precepts of collecting wholesome dharmas, etc.? What is the intention? Interpretation: It is merely an abridged concluding text. Taking the former to exemplify the latter, in the restraint precepts both are concluded and stated, and by analogy the latter two should be known, hence it is not stated. There is another explanation: in the opening text of the prātimokṣa restraint, there is only the statement 'abiding in the prātimokṣa restraint' and no statement 'well guarding the prātimokṣa precepts', while the concluding text below concludes both, having the statement 'well guarding'; in its third, the explanation of the precepts of benefiting sentient beings, the opening only has the single word 'abiding' and lacks the second statement 'well cultivating the precepts of collecting wholesome dharmas', while in its concluding text, both kinds are concluded together; the opening of its second, the precepts of collecting wholesome dharmas, only has the word 'abiding', and its concluding text says 'called abiding in the precepts of collecting wholesome dharmas, swiftly able to collect wholesome dharmas in all their forms'—the intention is precisely to conclude the statement 'well cultivating the precepts of collecting wholesome dharmas'. Reasoning by analogy: the prātimokṣa precepts have both in the opening and in the conclusion; the collecting of goodness and benefiting of beings mutually serve as models for each other; collecting goodness has both conclusions with only one opening, while benefiting beings has two conclusions; by analogy, the two middle questions open into nine, so the text is incomplete. Another interpretation: the previous question was simply three questions, namely 'abiding in the restraint while being able to well guard'—this is merely an elaboration of meaning, not having two questions; the subsequent benefiting beings and collecting goodness by analogy are also just one question; hence in the explanation below, the opening and concluding are also only of one kind, so there is no need to make laborious interpretations.
