又智度論云。如慈心念諸眾生令得快樂。眾生雖無所得。念者大得其福。若不樂施。縱生天得聖。還乏衣食。故優婆塞戒經云。持戒雖得羅漢不遮飢苦。若樂行施。雖墮鬼畜常飽無乏。

> Furthermore, the \*Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa\* says: Just as when one with a mind of loving-kindness thinks of all sentient beings to bring them joy, although the sentient beings obtain nothing, the one who contemplates obtains great merit from it; if one does not delight in giving, even if one is born in heaven or attains the state of a noble one, one will still lack clothing and food. Therefore, the \*Upāsakaśīla-sūtra\* says: Although one who upholds the precepts may attain the state of an arhat, this does not avert the suffering of hunger; but if one delights in practicing giving, even if one falls among ghosts or animals, one will always be full and lack nothing.
