也和之前所说的情况相似,善语是指向被调伏者宣说波罗蜜多。利益行是指让被调伏者行持或者如实领受所开示的意义。意义一致是指自己也安住于他人所应用的意义上,并与之相应地进行教导。如《经庄严论》中所说:布施等同于开示、领受和进入,以自身随行来表示善语、利益行和意义一致。以上。第二,为什么确定是四种摄事呢?因为为了使眷属行于善法,首先需要让他们对此感到欢喜,而这依赖于给予财物布施,从而对身体有所助益。像这样感到欢喜之后,为了让他们行于道上,首先需要让他们知道如何去做,而这依赖于以善语说法,从而消除不解和疑虑,使他们能够正确地理解意义。像这样理解之后,利益行会让他们开始行持善法。如果自己不修持,却告诉别人应该如何行持,那么别人会说:你自己都不修持,为什么要让别人修持呢?你自己还需要别人来纠正,这样别人就不会听从你的教导。如果自己修持,并且让他们也安住于我们所行持的善法上,他们就会想:如果修持这个,一定会对我们有益和带来快乐。这样,新加入的人会开始行持,已经加入的人也不会退转,而是会变得坚定。因此,需要意义一致。因为,利益的方便和,执持,进入,以及,同样地随行,应该了解为四种摄事。以上。第三,这四种摄事对被调伏者有什么作用呢?布施使他们成为听法的法器,因为这使说法者感到高兴。善语使他们对所要开示的法产生兴趣,因为这使他们能够详细地了解意义并消除疑虑。利益行使他们能够按照所教导的去修持。意义一致使已经加入的人不会退转,而是能够长期地修持。因为,第一种使成为法器,

It is similar to what was said before. Pleasant speech refers to teaching the perfections to those to be tamed. Beneficial conduct refers to causing those to be tamed to engage in or truly receive the meaning of what has been taught. Meaning conformity refers to oneself also abiding in the meaning to which others are applied, and teaching in accordance with it. As it says in the Ornament of the Sutras: Giving is equal to showing, receiving, and entering, With oneself following after, It is considered to be pleasant speech, beneficial conduct, And meaning conformity. That's it. Second, why are there definitely four ways of gathering? Because in order to apply the retinue to virtue, one must first make them happy with it, and that depends on giving material gifts, which benefits the body. Having become happy in this way, in order to apply them to the path, one must first know how to do it, and that depends on speaking Dharma with pleasant speech, thereby eliminating ignorance and doubt, and allowing them to grasp the meaning without distortion.

Thus, new entrants will begin to practice, and those who have already entered will not turn back, but will become steadfast. Therefore, meaning conformity is necessary.

Third, what do these four ways of gathering do for those to be tamed? Giving makes them suitable vessels for listening to the Dharma, because it makes the speaker happy. Pleasant speech makes them interested in the Dharma to be taught, because it makes them understand the meaning in detail and eliminates doubt. Beneficial conduct makes them practice according to what has been taught. Meaning conformity makes those who have already entered not turn back, but practice for a long time. Because, the first makes one a vessel,
