金剛般若經旨贊 2.54

2.54

經。須菩提至如是布施　贊曰。次顯對治眾生相違苦因緣中。文有其三。初正對治。次令信受。後遣執著。初中復二。初總標對治。後別釋所以。此初也。雖復發心不住流轉。若有眾生相違苦想強生忍時。便起勞倦而生退轉。不能常度菩薩發心行施等行。本為利益一切眾生。應當如是不住眾生相違苦想。而行施行生相違時勿生嗔恨。而強行忍當生退轉。只因不住能利眾生故。於此事相皆應遠離故。論依此而作頌云。

Within the first, there are again two: first, a general statement of the counteragent, and second, a specific explanation of the reason. This is the first. Even if one has aroused the mind not to abide in saṃsāra, if one has the notion of suffering caused by the adversity of sentient beings and forcibly practices forbearance, one will give rise to weariness and fall into regression, unable to constantly deliver [others]. A bodhisattva arousing the mind to practice giving and other practices fundamentally does so for the benefit of all sentient beings. One should thus give without abiding in the notion of suffering caused by the adversity of sentient beings; when beings act in adversity, do not give rise to anger and hatred, for forcibly practicing forbearance will lead to regression. Only by non-abiding can one benefit sentient beings; therefore, one should be far removed from both the matter and the mark in this regard. Thus, based on this, the treatise provides a verse, saying:
