法苑珠林 52.23

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [52.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.52.23)

無明蔽慧眼　數數生死中  
往來多所作　更互為父子  
貪著世間樂　不知有勝事  
怨數為知識　知識數為怨  
是故我方便　莫生憎愛心  
若起憎愛心　不能通達法

> Ignorance veils the eye of wisdom; / repeatedly in birth and death, / coming and going, much has been done, / alternately becoming father and son. / Coveting worldly pleasures, / they do not know there are superior things. / Enemies repeatedly become companions, / and companions repeatedly become enemies. / Therefore, using skillful means, / do not give rise to minds of hatred or love. / If one gives rise to hatred and love, / one cannot penetrate the Dharma.
