法苑珠林 99.23

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [99.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.99.23)

譬如有小兒　在地弄不淨  
年遂向長大　捨戲轉樂餘  
修行亦如是　求護度三界  
爾時遂精進　具足成四道

> "Just as there is a small child  
> Playing with filth on the ground;  
> As his years advance and he grows up,  
> He abandons play and takes joy in other things.  
> The practitioner is also like this,  
> Seeking protection to cross over the three realms;  
> At that time, he becomes vigorous,  
> Fully accomplishing the four paths."
