釋禪波羅蜜次第法門 3.164

3.164

Answer: There are two kinds of undefiledness: first, undefiledness of practice-conduct; second, undefiledness of wisdom-conduct. Since the undefiledness of practice-conduct is a counteractive phenomenal practice and is not specifically based on conditioning the true, there can be wholesome manifestation from past habituated causes. Since the undefiledness of wisdom-conduct specifically concerns conditioning the true, one cannot definitively assert that there is wholesome manifestation from past habituated causes. Further, there are two kinds [of undefiledness of wisdom-conduct]: first, practicing by conditioning the principle to clarify wisdom-conduct; second, manifesting wisdom to see the principle and condition the true, so as to clarify wisdom-conduct. Cultivating by conditioning the principle does have wholesome manifestation from habituated causes. When manifesting wisdom to see the principle, although it conditions the true, there is no wholesome manifestation from habituated causes.
