### △卷第三命根

> Chapter 3: Life Faculty

唯識開蒙云。云何為命根。答。依業所引第八種子。連持色心不斷功能。假立命根。取長陵土

> \*\*Explanation of Life Force\*\* What is the life force? It arises from karmic seeds stored in the eighth consciousness. This energy continuously sustains the body and mind without interruption. We provisionally call it the "life force." It is like taking a handful of long-mound earth.

漢文帝時。人有盜高廟座前玉環。張釋之奏當棄市。上欲致之族。釋之言法如是足也。今盜宗廟器而族。假令愚民取長陵一抔土。陛下且何以加其法乎。高帝墓曰長陵。結草護戒

> During the reign of Emperor Wen of Han, someone stole the jade ring from the shrine in front of the Gaozu Temple. Administrator of Justice Zhang Shizhi reported that the punishment according to the law should be execution in the marketplace. The emperor wanted to execute the thief and his entire family. Zhang Shizhi said, "The law decides the punishment, and this is sufficient. If we execute the whole family for stealing a temple vessel, then if a foolish commoner takes just a handful of dirt from Gaozu's tomb (the Changling Mausoleum), how would Your Majesty increase that punishment?"

昔佛在世。有諸比丘為賊劫掠。恐其追獲。以草繫之。佛制比丘不壞生草。繇此安坐不敢動作。王過見之。乃得解釋。折柳諫君

> Once, when the Buddha was alive, a group of monks were captured by bandits. Afraid the monks would escape and pursue them, the bandits tied the monks up with grass. The Buddha had instructed the monks not to harm living plants. Bound with the grass, the monks sat still, not daring to move. When a king passed by and saw them, he was able to set them free. Like breaking a willow branch to gently advise a ruler.

宋程頤為崇正殿說書。哲宗戲折柳枝。頤諫曰。方春發生。不可無故摧折。舜誅四兇

> During the Song dynasty, Cheng Yi served as a lecturer in the Chongzheng Hall. One day, Emperor Zhezong playfully broke a willow branch. Cheng Yi admonished him, saying, "It is spring, the season of growth—there is no reason to needlessly harm a living thing." He then cited the example of Emperor Shun's execution of the Four Criminals.

書云。舜流共工於幽州。放驩兜於崇山。竄三苗於三危。殛鯀於羽山。四罪而天下咸服。周公戮逆

> The writings say: Shun banished Gonggong to Youzhou, exiled Huandou to Chongshan, drove the Sanmiao people to Sanwei, and imprisoned Gun at Yushan. With these four punishments, the whole world submitted. The Duke of Zhou executed traitors.

周公居冢宰。以成王年幼。代王當國。南面負扆以朝諸侯。管叔蔡叔霍叔皆文王子流言曰。公將不利於孺子。奄君武庚與管叔等同反。周公乃作大誥。奉王命討武庚管叔誅之。斷死流涕

> The Duke of Zhou served as chief minister. Because King Cheng was still young, he acted as regent, ruling the kingdom in the king's place. Facing south, he stood before the screen of the royal throne to receive the feudal lords. Guan Shu, Cai Shu, and Huo Shu <note>all sons of King Wen</note> spread rumors, saying, "The Duke will do harm to the young king." The ruler of Yan, Wu Geng, joined with Guan Shu and others in rebellion. The Duke of Zhou then issued the "Great Announcement," and by royal command marched against Wu Geng and Guan Shu, executing them. Yet when he passed the death sentences, he wept.

梁武帝斷重罪。則終日不懌。或謀反事覺。亦泣而宥之。三覆行刑

> Emperor Wu of Liang, when pronouncing severe sentences, would remain troubled all day. Even when plots of rebellion were uncovered, he would weep and pardon the offenders, reviewing their cases three times before carrying out any execution.

唐太宗謂侍臣曰。朕以死刑至重。故令臨刑三覆奏。無疑。然後行刑。物誠何罪

> Emperor Taizong of Tang said to his attendants, "I consider the death penalty to be a matter of utmost gravity. Therefore, I have ordered that before carrying out an execution, the case must be reviewed three times. Only when there is no doubt should the punishment be carried out. After all, what crime do these beings truly commit?"

齊宣王坐於堂上。有牽牛而過堂下者。王見之。曰牛何之。對曰將以釁鐘。王曰舍之。吾不忍其觳觫。若無罪而就死地。神享克誠

書曰。神無常享。享於克誠。孔甘蔬水

孔子曰。飯蔬食飲水。曲肱而枕之。樂亦在其中矣。不義而富且貴。於我如浮雲。󳫹為犧牲

梁天監十六年四月。詔以宗廟用牲牢。有累冥道。宜皆以󳫹為之。象人以葬

孔子曰。始作俑者。其無後乎。為其象人而用之也。虎北渡河

漢劉昆為弘農太守。先是殽澠驛道多虎。行旅不通。昆為政三年。仁化大行。虎皆負子渡河。鱷魚遠徙

韓文公知潮州。州有鱷魚為害。公作文祭而遣之。魚遂遠去。捕蝗斬蛟

唐開元間。山東大蝗。姚崇奏遣捕而瘞之。盧懷慎以為殺蝗太多。恐傷和氣。姚崇曰。昔楚莊吞蛭而愈疾。叔敖殺蛇而致福。奈何不忍於蝗。而忍人之饑死乎。若使殺蝗有禍。崇請當之。周處不修細行。州里患之。慨然有改勵之志。謂父老曰。今時稔歲豐。何為不樂。父老曰。三害未除。何樂之有。處曰。何為三害。曰。南山白額猛虎。長橋下蛟。并子為三害。處曰。吾能除之。乃入山射殺虎。投水搏殺蛟。遂勵志好學。心存義烈。言必忠信克己。期年。州縣交辟。聲聞三篇

說極重過犯僧殘篇。說次重罪犯波逸篇。說輕罪犯惡作篇。有譽不有毀過仁不過義

孔子曰。吾之於人也。誰毀誰譽。如有所譽者。其有所試矣。古云。仁可過也。義不可過也。義同三諫

四分律云。九戒初犯。餘至三諫。書云。父母有過。三諫不聽。則號泣而隨之。人臣三諫不聽。則去之。秦皇賢逐客

秦宗室大臣諫曰。諸侯人來仕者。皆為其主耳。請一切逐之。於是大索逐客。楚人李斯亦在逐中。行且上書曰。臣聞泰山不讓土壤。故能成其大。河海不擇細流。故能就其深。王者不却眾庶。故能明其德。王乃召李斯復其官。卒用李斯之謀兼天下。漢主悅智囊

漢鼂錯以才辯得幸。景帝號曰智囊。美其智之廣也。析石斷命

若比丘犯非梵行。譬如有人刀斷其頭。終不得活。若妄語。譬如大石破為二分。終不還合。
