起信論疏筆削記 4.16

4.16

論　最勝下，所歸三寶，文三：初佛中，疏二：初略配。過小有兩意：一、佛果（三身三德）過於小乘之果故（羅漢辟支佛）；二、菩薩所歸之佛（報身）過於小乘所歸之佛（化身）。超因亦二意：一、佛果（妙覺）超於菩薩之因故（等覺已下）；二、真應無礙（自受用身），超於菩薩所見他受用身故。然若據馬鳴所見，合是他受用身。今以意業歸之，不取眼見，眼見則隨其功力，意歸則極至真身，故當自受用爾。上各二義中前義為正。業者下，標。謂意下，釋也。意明業之一字通身口意，如疏所配。然最勝之言亦通三業，謂遍知是意業最勝等，亦可救世利他，餘當自利，即自利利他悉圓滿也。若配三德，即如次為智、斷、恩也。

On the treatise's text, "the most supreme" and below: the Three Jewels in which refuge is taken, which has three parts: first, regarding the Buddha, the commentary has two parts: first, a brief assignment. Surpassing the small has two meanings: first, the Buddha fruit (three bodies and three virtues) surpasses the fruit of the Small Vehicle (arhats and pratyekabuddhas); second, the Buddha in whom the bodhisattva takes refuge (saṃbhogakāya) surpasses the Buddha in whom the Small Vehicle takes refuge (nirmāṇakāya). Transcending the cause also has two meanings: first, the Buddha fruit (marvelous enlightenment) transcends the cause of the bodhisattva (equal enlightenment and below); second, the unimpededness of true and responsive (self-enjoyment body) transcends the other-enjoyment body seen by bodhisattvas. However, according to what Aśvaghoṣa saw, it should properly be the other-enjoyment body. Now, taking refuge with mental karma does not take physical seeing; physical seeing is according to one's capacity, whereas mental taking of refuge reaches the utmost true body, and therefore it must be the self-enjoyment body. Between the two meanings in each of the above cases, the former meaning is the primary one. On "karma" and below: indicating [the term]. On "meaning that the mind" and below: explaining it. It means to clarify that the single word "karma" extends through body, speech, and mind, as assigned in the commentary. However, the expression "most supreme" also extends through the three karmas, meaning that omniscient knowledge is the most supreme mental karma, and so forth; it may also be that saving the world is benefiting others, while the rest pertain to self-benefit, meaning that self-benefit and benefiting others are both completely fulfilled. If matched with the three virtues, they are, in order: wisdom, abandonment, and kindness.
