華嚴發菩提心章 1.45

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.45](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1878.1.45)

「二者、自有眾生亦背聖教不讀經典，唯以質直心，隨逐前巧偽人，謂為出要，勤苦修行竟無所益，此雖勝於前類，猶非好人也。此上二人俱捨聖教，不得義理。

> "Second, there are sentient beings who also turn their backs on the sacred teachings and do not read the scriptures. Only with a simple and straightforward mind do they follow the aforementioned deceitful persons, deeming it the essential way of liberation, laboriously cultivating with ultimately no benefit. Although they are superior to the former category, they are still not good people. Both of these two above abandon the sacred teachings and do not attain the principle.
