淨名經集解關中疏 1.364

1.364

迦葉住平等法應次行乞食　此二約乞食示真頭陀。明小乘頭陀不真。頭陀此云抖藪。小乘抖藪其心不著房舍臥具湯藥四事名為頭陀。大乘頭陀抖藪其心一切不著。不著生死。不住涅槃。生滅垢淨等廣如善住意。大子經明於中文五。一欲乞止貪法。二入聚離染法。三示正法食。四結成法食。五斥二乘也。此初四段檢乞食心。若為修定惠資長法身名真頭陀。若為愛養世報而乞食者非抖藪也。住平等者為求平等法身。而乞食者應觀無相。貧富一如。次第行乞不應取貧富相壞。真抖藪也。

"Kāśyapa, abiding in the Dharma of equality, you should go on your alms round in sequential order." This is the second part, demonstrating the genuine dhūta with reference to begging for food, clarifying that the dhūta of the Small Vehicle is not genuine. Dhūta is translated here as "shaking off". When the Small Vehicle shakes off its mind, not clinging to dwellings, bedding, or medicines—the four requisites—this is called dhūta. When the Great Vehicle shakes off its mind, it does not cling to anything at all; it does not cling to saṃsāra, nor does it abide in nirvāṇa. The arising, ceasing, defilement, purity, and so forth are broadly explained as in the Sūtra of the Crown Prince Susthitamati. In it, there are five parts: 1. the dharma of begging to stop greed; 2. the dharma of entering villages free from defilement; 3. demonstrating the food of the true Dharma; 4. concluding the food of the Dharma; 5. reproaching the two vehicles. These first four passages examine the mind of begging for food. If it is for cultivating concentration and wisdom to nourish and foster the dharmakāya, it is called a genuine dhūta; if it is for cherishing and sustaining worldly retribution that one begs for food, it is not shaking off. 'Abiding in equality' means that one who begs for food to seek the equal dharmakāya should contemplate the signless, where poverty and wealth are identical. Going on alms rounds in sequential order without taking the marks of poverty and wealth to be distinct—this is genuine shaking off.
