瑜伽論記 23.52

23.52

In the prose commentary, it first explains abiding in few desires with three aspects: when the Tathāgata's mind enters into abiding in few desires, casting aside affairs and directly contemplating principle, this is called a person having few desires. First, because of having brought affairs to completion; second, because disciples have already accomplished revulsion in practice; third, in order to guide people of many engagements and cause them to have few desires. Furthermore, as for '[just as previously stated,] the Tathāgata enters the peaceful celestial abiding, and so forth': as explained previously in fascicle eighty-six, through eight causes and conditions the Tathāgata enters the peaceful celestial abiding, up to the detailed explanation.
