Visuddhimagga III-78

Apare taṇhāmānadiṭṭhivasena aparāpi tisso cariyā vadanti.

有人说由于爱、慢、见而另成三种性行。

Ñ(III,78): Others say that there are three more kinds of temperament with craving, pride, and views.



Tattha taṇhā rāgoyeva, māno ca taṃsampayuttoti tadubhayaṃ rāgacariyaṃ nātivattati.

然而爱即是贪,慢亦与贪相应的,所以这两种可以不必例于贪之外的。

Ñ: Herein craving is simply greed; and pride is associated with that. So neither of them exceeds greed.



Mohanidānattā ca diṭṭhiyā diṭṭhicariyā mohacariyameva anupatati.

依痴为因而成见,故见行即为随痴行而起的。

Ñ: And since views have their source in delusion, the temperament of views falls within the deluded temperament.
