三、喜無量心。慶他得樂,生歡悅心,名之為喜。若行者於禪定中,念眾生令離苦得樂歡喜時,心數法中生定,名為喜定。是喜相應心,無瞋無恨、無怨無惱,善修得解,廣大無量遍滿十方,是為喜無量心。

Third is the immeasurable mind of sympathetic joy. Celebrating others' attainment of happiness and generating a joyful mind is called 'sympathetic joy'. When a practitioner in meditative absorption thinks of sentient beings to make them leave suffering, attain happiness, and rejoice, meditative absorption arises among the mental factors; this is called the meditative absorption of sympathetic joy. This mind associated with sympathetic joy is free of anger, free of hatred, free of enmity, and free of vexation; when skillfully cultivated and realized, it is vast, immeasurable, and pervades the ten directions; this is the immeasurable mind of sympathetic joy.
