2.186

“Grasping” means that that merit attains a defiled karmic retribution. Because of defiled fruits, that merit is blameworthy. Grasping in such a manner is termed “grasping”, just as grasping a wrong path. “This merit has no retribution”: “no retribution” means being free from that defiled retribution. Therefore, this merit is received but not grasped. Exposition: Because of grasping merit, defilement arises; hence it is blameworthy. Undefiled merit does not incur defiled fruits; therefore it can be received. The general meaning is the same as this.
