勸發菩提心集 1.51

1.51

次立決定誓者，有五事持：一能堅固其心；二能制伏煩惱；三能遮放逸；四破五蓋；五能勤修六波羅蜜。云何立誓？若有人來種種求索，我於爾時隨有施與，乃至不生一念慳悋。若生惡心如彈指頃，以施因緣求淨報者，我即欺誑十方世界無量諸佛，於未來世，亦當必定不成無上菩提。若我持戒，乃至失命，建立淨心，誓無悔心。若我修忍，為他侵害乃至割截，常生慈心，誓不恚礙。若修精進，逢寒暑王賊水火師子虎狼無水穀處，要必堅固，誓不退沒。若我修禪，為外事惱不得攝心，要繫念境，誓不暫起非法亂想。若修智慧，觀一切法，如真實性，隨順受持，於善、不善，有為、無為，生死、涅槃，不起二見。若我心悔恚礙退沒亂想起於二見，如彈指頃。而以戒忍精進禪智求淨報者，我即欺誑十方世界無量無邊阿僧祇現在諸佛，於未來不證菩提。菩薩以十大願持正法行，以六大誓制放逸心，必能精進修集六波羅蜜，成無上菩提。

Next, establishing resolute vows is maintained by five things: first, it can make the mind firm; second, it can subdue afflictions; third, it can prevent negligence; fourth, it destroys the five hindrances; fifth, it can diligently cultivate the six pāramitās. How does one establish the vows? If someone comes seeking various things, at that time I will give according to what I have, not even giving rise to a single thought of stinginess. If for the span of a finger-snap an evil thought should arise, or if through the causal condition of giving I should seek a pure reward, then I would be deceiving the immeasurable Buddhas of the worlds of the ten directions, and in future ages I would also definitely not achieve unexcelled bodhi. If I uphold the precepts, even unto losing my life, establishing a pure mind, I vow to have no regret. If I cultivate patience, even if injured or dismembered by others, I will constantly give rise to a mind of loving-kindness, vowing to bear no anger or resentment. If I cultivate vigor, though encountering cold, heat, rulers, bandits, water, fire, lions, tigers, wolves, or places without water and grain, I must be firm, vowing never to retreat or sink. If I cultivate dhyāna, though disturbed by external affairs and unable to gather the mind, I must bind my mindfulness to the object, vowing not to give rise even momentarily to illicit, distracted thoughts. If I cultivate wisdom, I will contemplate all dharmas in accordance with their real nature, following and upholding it, not giving rise to dualistic views regarding wholesome and unwholesome, conditioned and unconditioned, or saṃsāra and nirvāṇa. If my mind should have regret, anger, discouragement, or distracted thoughts, or give rise to dualistic views even for the span of a finger-snap, and seek a pure reward through precepts, patience, vigor, dhyāna, and wisdom, then I would be deceiving the immeasurable, boundless, asamphyeya present Buddhas of the worlds of the ten directions, and in the future I would not realize bodhi. The bodhisattva maintains the practice of the true Dharma with the ten great vows and restrains the negligent mind with the six great vows, and thus will definitely be able to diligently cultivate and amass the six pāramitās and achieve unexcelled bodhi.
