金剛般若經旨贊 2.49

2.49

上二句問下二句答。為者依也。依何等故心不捨菩提想。依何等起行相而修行。依無我等忍波羅蜜而能發心。亦以無我而能修行行得堅固。是釋經言離一切相發心義也。

The first two lines ask; the last two lines answer. “For” means “based on.” Based on what does the mind not abandon the notion of bodhi? Based on what does it give rise to the aspects of practice and cultivate them? Based on the perfection of forbearance [discerning] selflessness and the like, one is able to arouse the mind; also, through selflessness, one is able to cultivate practice and make the practice firm. This explains the meaning of the sūtra’s words “abandoning all marks, one should arouse the mind.”
