1.2

佛言:「道人行道,若瞋恚意起時,即當制己,制便念善,是為道人行。若布施財利,得之便計無常,不隨身犯,謂不犯殺盜婬,是為不隨身犯。出瞋恚者口亦不言,意亦不念,是為出瞋恚意中大深聲者。譬如人作盜,說言:『汝所作大無狀。』是為意中大深聲。」

The Buddha said: "When a man of the Way is practicing the Way, if a thought of ill-will arises, he should immediately restrain himself. Having restrained himself, he then thinks of the good; this is the practice of a man of the Way. If he gives wealth and profit [or] acquires it, he considers it impermanent and does not transgress in bodily action—meaning he does not commit killing, theft, or sexual misconduct; this is not transgressing in bodily action. One who removes ill-will does not speak it with his mouth nor think it in his mind; this is removing the exceedingly deep sound within the mind. Just as when a person commits theft, someone says: 'What you have done is utterly improper'; this is the exceedingly deep sound within the mind."
