Record of Lay Practitioners' Transmission of the Lamp (居士分燈錄)


佛性
經言:「蠢動含靈皆有佛性。」孟子之闢告子也,曰:「然則犬之性猶牛之性,牛之性猶人之性歟。」有執經言而非孟子,予以為不然。皆有佛性者,出世盡理之言,人畜不同者,世間見在之論,兩不相礙,是故極本窮源,則螻蟻、蠛蠓直下與三世諸佛平等不二。據今見在,則人通萬變,畜惟一知,何容竝視?豈惟人與畜殊,犬以司夜,有警則吠,若夫牛即發扃、鑽穴、踰墻、斬關且安然,如不聞見矣。犬牛之性,果不齊也,而況於人乎?萬材同一木也,而梧檟枳棘自殊;百川同一水也,而江湖溝渠各別。此同而未甞不異,異而未甞不同者也。如執而不通,則世尊成正覺時普見一切眾生成正覺,今日何以尚有眾生?
