釋禪波羅蜜次第法門 6.47

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [6.47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.6.47)

問曰：五道眾生果報不同，苦樂有異，如三塗眾生多苦報，人道眾生半受苦樂，天道眾生多受樂果。云何行慈因緣皆見一切受樂，行悲因緣皆見一切受苦，豈非顛倒耶？

> Question: The retributions of sentient beings in the five destinies are not the same, and suffering and happiness differ. For example, sentient beings of the three wretched destinies have mostly retributions of suffering, sentient beings of the human destiny experience half suffering and half happiness, and sentient beings of the heavenly destiny mostly experience retributions of happiness. Why is it that through the conditions of practicing benevolence one sees all experiencing happiness, while through the conditions of practicing compassion one sees all experiencing suffering? Is this not inverted?
