2.52

憶所修福念於淨命 此三約求大果喻也。文三。初恃福以求大果勿邪命而苟存。肇曰。恐新學菩薩為疾所亂故勸憶於修福悅其情也。生曰。若有福者所生必勝。何有畏哉。

"Recall the merits cultivated, and be mindful of pure livelihood." This is the third, consoling with reference to seeking the great fruit; the text is in three parts. First, relying on merit to seek the great fruit, without improperly surviving by wrong livelihood. [Seng]zhao says: "Fearing that novice bodhisattvas might be disturbed by illness, he therefore encourages them to recall their cultivated merit to gladden their minds." [Dao]sheng says: "If one has merit, wherever one is born will surely be superior; what is there to fear?"
