摩訶止觀 6.3

6.3

第二、體思假入空破法遍者，即為三：一、明思假，二、明體觀，三、明其位。「思假」者，謂貪、瞋、癡、慢，此名「鈍使」，亦名「正三毒」。歷三界為十。又約三界凡九地，地地有九品，合八十一品；皆能潤業受三界生。初果猶七反未盡，如燈滅方盛。雖復有欲，非婦不淫；雖復有瞋，墾地不夭；雖復有愚，不計性實。道共戒力，任運如是，故稱「正煩惱」也。不同見惑，瀾漫無方，觸境生著。

Second, embodying the provisionality of thought to enter emptiness to destroy phenomena everywhere has three parts: first, clarifying the provisionality of thought; second, clarifying embodiment and contemplation; third, clarifying their stages. 'Provisionality of thought' refers to greed, anger, ignorance, and arrogance. These are called the 'blunt proclivities', and are also called the 'fundamental three poisons'. Spread through the three realms, they constitute ten. Furthermore, regarding the three realms there are altogether nine stages, and each stage has nine grades, totaling eighty-one grades; all of them can moisten karma and cause one to undergo rebirth in the three realms. Even at the first fruit [of the stream-enterer] they are not yet exhausted through seven returns, just as when a lamp is extinguished it flares up before going out. Although such a one still has desire, he does not commit sexual misconduct except with his wife; although he still has anger, he does not kill when tilling the earth; although he still has folly, he does not calculate intrinsic reality. The power of the morality confluent with the path is naturally like this; hence they are called the 'fundamental afflictions'. They are not like delusions of view, which are sprawling and without direction, generating attachment whenever encountering objects.
