坐禪三昧經 1.27

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.614.1.27)

「『不明白益法，不知道德業；  
而作結使因，如火鑽燧生。  
惡法而心著，遠棄於善法；  
奪眾生明賊，去來明亦劫。  
常樂我淨想，計於五陰中；  
苦習盡道法，亦復不能知。  
種種惱險道，盲人入中行；  
煩惱故業集，業故苦流迴。  
不應取而取，應取而反棄；  
馳闇逐非道，蹴株而躃地。  
有目而無慧，其喻亦如是，  
是因緣滅故，智明如日出。』

> "‘Not understanding dharmas of pure benefit,  
> not knowing virtuous deeds,  
> it instead acts as the cause of fetters,  
> like fire born from rubbing drill and hearth.  
> The mind clings to evil dharmas  
> and casts far away the good dharmas;  
> it is a thief robbing sentient beings of light,  
> plundering both the past and future light.  
> Conceiving permanence, pleasure, self, and purity,  
> it reckons them within the five aggregates;  
> and the dharmas of suffering, origination, cessation, and the path,  
> it likewise cannot know.  
> Manifold afflictions are a treacherous road;  
> a blind person enters and walks in their midst.  
> Due to kleśas, karma accumulates;  
> due to karma, one drifts in suffering.  
> Grasping what should not be grasped,  
> and instead casting away what should be grasped;  
> racing in darkness, pursuing improper paths,  
> stumbling over tree stumps and tumbling to the ground.  
> Having eyes yet lacking wisdom  
> is also just like this simile;  
> because these causes and conditions are extinguished,  
> the light of wisdom rises like the sun.’
