【 Cultivating Ethical Behaviour 业果】Clearing up misconceptions 除遣于此邪分别
【Cultivating Ethical Behaviour】- Clearing up misconceptions
【 c) Clearing up misconceptions concerning the attitude of a person of small capacity】
Similarly, after the principles are explained, there are some errors which he is now going to clear up.
【Misconception: In the scriptures it says that you must turn your mind away from all the excellent things of cyclic existence. Someone could misinterpret this and think that is improper to develop an interest in high status [as a human or deity] in which body, resources, and the like are excellent, because it is within cyclic existence.】
Where is the error? There are these people, upon seeing what the scriptures told us, which is that all the excellent things of cyclic existence are false. We should know their faults and should turn away from them, should turn away from them. Hence, after they read from the scriptures, they will therefore say, "Ah-ya, since the scriptures said this, therefore for all the resources and soon that are in the interest of attaining high status [as a human or deity], these are within the cyclic existence. It is improper to be seeking for these. It is improper to be seeking for these." For us, when we hear this, "Yes! This is absolutely true. We don't want it! But actually is it like that? No, no! For those striving in the vehicle of Shravakas, this is true [for them]! It is because the goal of the Shravakas will absolutely be "in haste for liberation." So he would devote all of his energy to strive for liberation, he needs nothing else at all, needs nothing else at all.

业果 : 除遣于此邪分别
【第三除遣于此邪分别者。】
同样地，说明了道理以外，有一类错误的，他要把它排除掉。
【谓有一类，以佛经说，悉应背弃生死所有一切圆满，为错误事。作是念云，身受用等诸圆满事，增上生者，皆是生死，发求此心不应道理。】
那么它错在哪里呢？说有一类的人士，他看见佛经上面告诉我们说，说生死当中的一切的圆满哪，那都是虚假的，我们应该晓得它的过患，应该背弃它，应该背弃它。所以他就看见经上这么说，所以他就说：“哎呀，既然经上这么说，所以我们眼前的受用等等，这一种属于增上生的事情，那个都是生死轮回当中的事情，要求这个不合理，要求这个不合理。”对这个话我们听起来：对啊！千真万确，我们不要它呀！实际上是不是这样呢？不，不！对于求声闻乘来说，是！因为声闻乘的目的，的的确确“急求解脱”，他全部的精神求解脱，根本不要别的，根本不要别的。
