折疑論 3.6

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [3.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118.3.6)

貌列五事之首（尚書云。一曰貌。二曰言。三曰視。四曰聽。五曰思。註云。貌曰恭。言曰從。視曰明。聽曰聰。思曰睿。恭作肅。從作又。明作哲。聰作謀。睿作聖。五事惟貌最先。故曰首）。

> demeanor heads the Five Matters. (The Book of Documents says: 'The first is demeanor; the second, speech; the third, sight; the fourth, hearing; the fifth, thought.' The commentary says: 'Demeanor is said to be respectful; speech, compliant; sight, clear; hearing, sharp; thought, penetrating. Respect leads to solemnity; compliance, to good order; clarity, to discernment; sharpness, to counsel; penetration, to sagacity.' Among the five matters, demeanor comes first; hence it is called 'the head.')
