修華嚴奧旨妄盡還源觀 1.29

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.29](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1876.1.29)

三者、柔和質直攝生德。謂大智照真名為質直，大悲救物故曰柔和。又質直者，約本性不遷；柔和者，約隨流不滯。柔則伏滅煩惱，和則順理修行，用茲調和之法，以攝眾生也。又質直者，體無妄偽，言行相符，蘊德居懷，不拘名利，輕金若塊，重教逾珍，但為正業調生，速願自他圓滿。故曰柔和質直攝生德也。

> Third is the virtue of gentle, upright rectitude that embraces sentient beings. This means that great wisdom illuminating the real is called 'upright rectitude', while great compassion rescuing creatures is called 'gentle'. Moreover, 'upright rectitude' is based on the original nature not changing; 'gentle' is based on flowing along without stagnating. Being gentle subdues and eliminates afflictions, and harmony accords with principle in cultivation; using this harmonizing dharma, one embraces sentient beings. Furthermore, 'upright rectitude' means the essence is free from falsehood, speech and deed correspond, virtues are harbored within the breast, one is unconstrained by fame and profit, one treats gold as lightly as a dirt clod and values the teaching above gems, only regulating beings for the sake of correct activity, swiftly aspiring that self and other become complete. Therefore it is called the virtue of gentle, upright rectitude that embraces sentient beings.
