### [1.311](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1.311)

佛知其意即告舍利弗。汝行詣維摩詰問疾　此二命問疾人。先別命十人。此初章也。文二。初命。後辭。此初命也。肇曰。至人懸心默通不先形言冥機潛應。故先勅也。如其知諸人不堪而猶命者將顯淨名無窮之德以生眾會悕仰之情耳。舍利此名。身其母名也。弗秦言子天竺多。以母名名子。

> "The Buddha, knowing his thought, immediately said to Śāriputra, 'Go to Vimalakīrti to inquire after his illness.'" This second \[part\] is ordering someone to inquire after the illness. First, he individually orders ten people. This is the first section. The text has two parts: first the order, and later the decline. This is the first, the order. \[Seng\]zhao said: "The perfected person has a mind that reaches far and silently penetrates; without prior words, he responds hiddenly to the unseen catalyst. Therefore, he issues the command in advance. If he knows that none of them is capable and yet still commands them, it is to manifest Jingming's boundless virtue so as to arouse reverence and longing in the assembly. 'Śāri' here means 'body' and is his mother's name. 'Putra' (弗) in Qin language means 'son'. In India, one is frequently named after one's mother."
