82.14

惟大智之人厭世修道。雖具持戒。內懷定慧。不現持相。內言實德。故華嚴經云。何等為離邪命戒。此菩薩不作持戒淨相欲使他知內無實德現實德相。但持淨戒一向求法。究竟薩婆若。何等為不起惡戒。此菩薩不自高貴言我持戒。見犯戒人亦不致呵令其憂惱。但一其心持清淨戒。勝果剋得不須疑惑。

Indeed, persons of great wisdom, weary of the world, practice the Way. Although they fully uphold the precepts, inwardly they cherish concentration and wisdom, not displaying the outward signs of upholding them, while speaking inwardly of true virtue. Thus the Avataṃsaka-sūtra says: 'What is the precept of avoiding wrong livelihood? This bodhisattva does not make an outward display of pure precept-observance wishing to let others know it, while inwardly having no true virtue yet displaying the appearance of true virtue. He merely upholds the pure precepts, single-mindedly seeking the Dharma, ultimately reaching sarvajña. What is the precept of not giving rise to evil? This bodhisattva does not consider himself noble and say, "I uphold the precepts," nor, seeing a person who violates the precepts, does he reproach him to cause him worry and vexation. He simply unifies his mind to uphold the pure precepts; the superior fruit will surely be obtained without any need for doubt.'
