大乘入道次第開決 1.91

1.91

能破五蓋者。一貪欲蓋。二嗔恚蓋。三惛沈睡眠蓋。四掉舉惡作蓋。五者疑蓋。覆蔽其心不得顯了。障諸善品令其不轉。故此五種而立蓋名。由誓持心除此五種。是故名為破五蓋也。遮放逸等准而說之。

Regarding “able to destroy the five hindrances”: first, the hindrance of sensual desire; second, the hindrance of ill will; third, the hindrance of sloth and torpor; fourth, the hindrance of restlessness and regret; fifth, the hindrance of doubt. They cover and conceal the mind so that it cannot become clear, and they obstruct all wholesome qualities so that they do not operate; therefore, these five kinds are designated as “hindrances.” By upholding the mind through vows, these five kinds are eliminated; thus it is called “destroying the five hindrances.” The prevention of heedlessness and so forth should be explained accordingly.
