### 楊輔之乞金剛集解序

> Preface to Yang Fuzhi's Request for the Diamond Sutra Commentary

一代時教，皆生死海中廣大津梁，而般若尤為迅航。菩薩未有不學般若，成無上菩提者。般若一十六會，會一切皆摩訶衍，共則三乘同進，不共菩薩獨修。惟第九金剛之會，直指無住生心妙旨，故云為發大乘最上乘者說。蓋圓頓極談，實相正印，所以黃梅印心，六祖悟道也。世之解者，僅以無住無相為其宗體，豈知般若如大火聚，四邊皆不可取，四門皆可入乎。嘗玩經中較福，每舉捨財捨身，頗似般若功勝，布施功劣。乃經初云「菩薩於法，應無所住，行於布施。」又云「菩薩不住相布施，其福德不可思量。」由此言之，布施即般若，非離布施別談般若也。彌勒、無著、天親、功德施，四大菩薩造論，皆謂布施具三檀，三檀攝六度。後人縱有註釋，豈能過四大菩薩，更出奇見哉？宣聖云：「有德者必有言。」予亦云：「修般若者，必修布施。」今人不然，高談般若，無不點胸，語以修捨則心驚怖，反駕言不必著相。詎知不著布施相，早著慳貪相矣。設慳貪無慳貪相，何不布施無布施相之為妙也。經云「法尚應捨，何況非法。」著布施是著法，著慳貪豈不著非法邪？此所謂無德無言者也。然佛法如栴檀林，入者有心無心，皆染香氣。古今諸解，雖未必盡當，亦無不有般若妙香存焉。此《集解》之所為作歟？

> Throughout the entire scope of the Buddha's teachings, all are vast ferries across the ocean of birth and death, yet the Perfection of Wisdom is the swiftest vessel. No Bodhisattva has ever attained supreme enlightenment without studying the Perfection of Wisdom. The Perfection of Wisdom is taught in sixteen assemblies, where all teachings are Great Vehicles ; some are shared among the three vehicles, while others are exclusive to Bodhisattva practice. Only the ninth assembly, the Diamond Sutra, directly points to the wondrous principle of the mind that abides nowhere yet arises. Therefore, it is said to be taught for those who set forth on the Great and Supreme Vehicle. It is the ultimate expounding of the perfect and sudden teachings, the true seal of reality—hence, the Fifth Patriarch used it to seal minds, and the Sixth Patriarch awakened to the Way through it. Worldly interpreters merely take "abiding nowhere and having no form" as its core principle. How could they know that the Perfection of Wisdom is like a great blazing fire—untouchable from any side, yet accessible through any gate? When contemplating the sutra’s comparisons of merit, it often cites giving away wealth and even one’s body, which seems to suggest that the Perfection of Wisdom is superior to giving. Yet the sutra begins by saying, "A Bodhisattva should practice giving without abiding in anything," and also says, "A Bodhisattva who gives without abiding in form has immeasurable merit." Thus, giving itself is the Perfection of Wisdom; it is not that we speak of the Perfection of Wisdom apart from giving. Maitreya, Asaṅga, Vasubandhu, and Guṇaprabha—these four great Bodhisattvas composed treatises all stating that giving encompasses the three kinds of giving, and those three kinds encompass the six perfections. Even if later people write commentaries, how could they surpass these four great Bodhisattvas or come up with any extraordinary views? Confucius said, "A person of virtue is sure to have words of virtue." I say, "One who cultivates the Perfection of Wisdom must also cultivate giving." People today are different: they boast about the Perfection of Wisdom, patting themselves on the chest, but when told to cultivate generosity, they become fearful and instead speak of not being attached to forms. Little do they know that by not being attached to the form of giving, they have already become attached to the form of stinginess. If stinginess itself has no form, why is it not better to practice giving without form? The sutra says, "Even the Dharma should be let go of, how much more so non-Dharma." Being attached to giving is being attached to Dharma; how could being attached to stinginess not be attachment to non-Dharma? This is what is meant by "no virtue, no words." Nevertheless, the Buddha’s teachings are like a sandalwood forest: those who enter, whether mindful or mindless, are all perfumed by its fragrance. Though ancient and modern explanations may not always be perfect, they all still carry the wondrous fragrance of the Perfection of Wisdom within them. This is why this \*Collection of Commentaries\* has been made.
