（難字平聲）雜阿含經云。有外道名閻浮車。問舍利弗云。賢聖法律有何難事。舍利弗言。唯出家難。問何難。答愛樂難。問云何。答樂常修善難。問何名善法。答謂八正道。若出家者。修習此道。不久疾得盡諸有漏（八正道者正語。正業。正命。此三屬戒。小乘以戒為先故。正定。正勤。正念。此三屬定。定因戒得故次也。正見。正思惟。此二屬惠。惠因定發故）○秦本雜阿含經云。夫出家者。名為難得。若起惡心。不名難得。

> (The word 'nan' \[difficulty\] is pronounced in the level tone.) The Saṃyuktāgama states: There was a non-Buddhist named Jambukhādaka who asked Śāriputra: "What is difficult in the noble Dharma and Vinaya?" Śāriputra said: "Only leaving the household is difficult." He asked: "What is difficult about it?" He replied: "Taking joy in it is difficult." He asked: "How so?" He replied: "Taking joy in always cultivating the good is difficult." He asked: "What is called good dharmas?" He replied: "The Noble Eightfold Path. If one leaves the household and cultivates this Path, before long one will swiftly extinguish all outflows." (The Noble Eightfold Path consists of: right speech, right action, and right livelihood—these three pertain to morality, because the Hīnayāna gives priority to morality; right concentration, right effort, and right mindfulness—these three pertain to concentration, because concentration is obtained based on morality, hence it is next; right view and right intention—these two pertain to wisdom, because wisdom is generated based on concentration.) ○ The Qin version of the Saṃyuktāgama states: "Leaving the household is called difficult to obtain. If one gives rise to an evil mind, it is not called difficult to obtain."
