大乘起信論略述 2.243

2.243

論。復次若人至無有邊際　述曰。此明修慧益也。若人等者。顯時少福多。假令已下據量多相。何以故下釋多所以。此論所明法性之理。性體無際。德亦無窮。起修慧者契順性德。功德無邊欲莫能盡。

[Treatise:] "Furthermore, if a person […] there are no boundaries." / [Exposition:] This explains the benefit of the wisdom derived from cultivation. "If a person," etc., shows that the time is short but the merit is great. From "Suppose" onward, it is based on the measure of vast aspects. From "Why?" onward, it explains the reason for its abundance. The principle of dharmatā explained by this treatise has a nature and essence without limit, and its virtues are also infinite. For one who generates the wisdom derived from cultivation and accords with the inborn virtues, the merit is boundless and cannot be exhausted by desire.
