釋禪波羅蜜次第法門 4.28

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [4.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.4.28)

今約此五不善法，即合為三障。前三毒，即為習因煩惱障。等分之中覺觀亂法，即是麁四陰，故名為報障。三種障道，即為業障。何以知之？由過去造惡，未來應受惡報，即以業持此惡。若行者於未受報中間而修善者，善與惡乖，業即扶惡而起，來障於善，故知即是業障。如是三障，障一切行人禪定、智慧不得開發，故名為障。

> Now, taking these five unwholesome dharmas, they are combined into the three obstacles: the previous three poisons constitute the affliction obstacle of habitual causes; the chaotic dharmas of vitarka and vicāra within the equalized \[disposition\] are the coarse four aggregates and are therefore called the retribution obstacle; and the three kinds of path-obstructing \[manifestations\] are the karmic obstacle. How is this known? Because of evil created in the past, one ought to undergo evil retribution in the future, so karma sustains this evil. If a practitioner cultivates goodness in the interval before retribution is undergone, goodness and evil clash; karma then arises in support of the evil to come and obstruct the good. Thus we know it is the karmic obstacle. These three obstacles obstruct all practitioners so that dhyāna-concentration and wisdom cannot develop; hence they are called obstacles.
