瑜伽師地論略纂 11.19

11.19

論解六度相中，初施云「能以布施攝事，攝益有情」，第六通以四攝事行中，四度中俱以同事利益有情，即六度攝四攝也。何故布施中不言勸有情行施？自己同之，名為同事，亦名利行。今且約隨增，故說唯有此，非約實義。其實義者，何妨一一中得有利行等。

In the treatise's explanation of the characteristics of the six perfections, regarding the first, giving, it states, 'one can gather and benefit sentient beings through the means of gathering of giving'; under the sixth, which comprehensively exercises the four means of gathering, across the [remaining] four perfections one equally benefits sentient beings through sharing the same goals (samānārthatā), which means the six perfections subsume the four means of gathering. Why does it not mention under giving that one encourages sentient beings to practice giving? By joining in it oneself, it is called 'sharing the same goals', and also called 'beneficial action' (arthacaryā). For now, it speaks of this only in terms of what is predominant; it is not based on the actual reality. As for its actual reality, what is there to prevent each and every one from having beneficial action and so forth?
