18.45

無足者,修諸善行,意無厭足,表異二乘得少為足,則欲而不貪也。以念等下,正釋論意,可知。此同《唯識》三鍊摩中第二鍊摩。無性頌云:汝已惡道經多劫,無利勤苦尚能超,少行苦行得菩提,大利不應生退屈。

"Without insatiability": in cultivating all wholesome deeds, the intention has no sated exhaustion, demonstrating distinction from the two vehicles who take little as sufficient; this is desiring without greed. Commentary: "Thinking that..." and below directly explains the treatise's meaning, as can be known. This is identical to the second tempering among the three temperings in *Vijñaptimātratā*. Apratiṣṭhita's verse says: "Having already spent many kalpas in evil destinies, / You were still able to surpass unprofitable toil; / Undergoing slight austerities to attain bodhi, / For such great benefit, you should not give rise to retrogression or faintheartedness."
