### [3.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2023.3.16)

資持云。一切佛法不出三學。以眾生迷心為惑動慮成業。由業感報生死無窮。欲脫苦果要除苦因。故先以戒治其業。次以定慧澄其惑。業分善惡故。止作兩行以相翻惑唯昏散故。定慧二法而對破。病因藥差機藉教修。然後業盡惑除。情亡性顯。教門雖廣豈越於斯。

> The Zichi says: All Buddhadharma does not go beyond the three trainings. Because sentient beings' confused minds become delusion, and moving thoughts form karma. Due to karma they incur retributions, with saṃsāra without end. If one wishes to escape the suffering fruit, one must eliminate the suffering cause. Therefore, first treat their karma with śīla; next, clarify their delusion with samādhi and prajñā. Because karma is divided into good and bad, the two practices of cessation and action counteract each other. Because delusion is only dullness and distraction, the two dharmas of samādhi and prajñā counter and break it. An illness is cured due to medicine; capacities rely on teaching to practice. After that, karma is exhausted and delusion eliminated; feelings perish and the nature is revealed. Although the gates of the teaching are vast, how could they exceed this?
