21.341

捨諸罪軛(軛於隔反珠叢曰軛車轅端橫木也今謂諸罪荷擔在身如牛為重載所壓在家累繫如牛被軛脫俗入道猶捨軛也)。

捨諸罪軛 [Casting off the yokes of all transgressions] (軛 is *ʔɛk* [於隔反]. The Zhucong says: 'An axle-yoke is the horizontal wood at the end of a carriage shaft.' Here it means that all transgressions borne upon oneself are like an ox pressed down by a heavy load; the entanglements and ties of household life are like an ox being yoked; shedding the mundane and entering the path is like casting off the yoke).
