西方合論 8.2

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [8.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1976.8.2)

夫一切迷情，依諸見起，履之則為稠林，溺之則為熱海。如蠶作繭，即住處為受縛之因；似蛾赴燈，依光明作喪生之本。故先達云：「行起解絕。」所以將趨聖室，先入普賢之門；欲修正因，首割邪見之網。今約諸家負墮，略分十則。無法可捨，是見必訶。拋家蕩子，慣憐羈旅之人；落第寒生，備識窮途之苦。幸順佛言，莫依魔教。

> Now, all deluded sentiments arise relying on various views: treading upon them becomes a dense forest; sinking into them becomes a boiling sea. Like a silkworm spinning a cocoon, its very dwelling place becomes the cause of its binding; like a moth rushing toward a flame, relying on the light becomes the basis for losing its life. Therefore past masters said: 'When practice arises, understanding ceases.' For this reason, when about to approach the holy chamber, one first enters the gate of Samantabhadra; wishing to cultivate the correct cause, one first cuts through the net of wrong views. Now, in summary of the lapses and falls of various teachers, they are briefly divided into ten items. Since there is no dharma to be abandoned, every view must be rebuked. A prodigal son who has cast away his home is accustomed to pitying wayfarers; an impoverished scholar who failed the examinations fully knows the bitter straits of a dead end. May you follow the Buddha's words and not rely on the teachings of Māra.
