維摩經疏卷第三．第六 3.8

3.8

此下第三總結。具上六德平等宴坐聖共同遵稱可佛心。故云印可。此句結德。時我世尊默然不能加報者。上人境界非己所知理出情外故云不能報也。此句結失良由。向來教呵並明得失俱說。故今雙結者。欲令時眾同其得也。故我不堪下第四結不堪也。

From here down is the third part, the general conclusion. Possessing the six virtues above, sitting in quiet contemplation in equality, universally followed by the noble ones, accords with and pleases the Buddha's mind; hence it says 'sealed with approval'. This clause concludes the virtues. 'At that time, World-Honoured One, I was silent and unable to respond': The realm of superior persons is not what one can know oneself; its principle transcends ordinary sentiments; hence he says 'unable to respond'. This clause concludes the shortcomings. Truly, because the instruction and rebuke up to this point explained both gains and losses together, both are now concluded together: he wishes to lead the assembly at that time to share in those gains. From 'Therefore I am not competent' onward is the fourth part, concluding his incompetence.
