2.49

說悔先罪而不說入。於過去 此二約大悲喻也。文三。此初勸悔先過病由先罪。但可責己不可具病癈捨大悲入過去也。肇曰。教有疾菩薩悔既往之罪。法雖繫人不言罪。有常往從未來到現在。從現在入過去也。

"Speak of repenting past transgressions, but do not speak of entering into the past." This is the second, consoling with reference to great compassion; the text is in three parts. This first part encourages repenting past faults: illness originates from past transgressions; one may only reproach oneself, but must not, on account of illness, abandon great compassion to enter into the past. [Seng]zhao says: "He instructs the sick bodhisattva to repent past offenses. Though the Dharma is bound to the person, he does not say that transgressions have a permanent continuity coming from the future to the present, or from the present entering the past."
