《第四十四章》[View] [Edit] [History]

1 (河上公注本作立戒章,彭本作为名章)
2 名与身孰亲?身与货孰多?得与亡孰病?是故甚爱必大费,多藏必厚亡。知足不辱,知止不殆,可以长久。
3 身亲于名,身多于货。得身无病,亡身有病。此理之晓然者也。故太上以孰亲、孰多、孰病觉之,所以动其良心,使人自悟,非同乎后世训文,一味责备,反令舆情不服。此太上谦和之德也。然世有亲其名而疏其身,多其货而少其身,得身不以为贵,亡身不以为痛者。如此沉迷,要皆名利心重,保身心轻者也。岂如喉中气断,大限来临,名归乌有,货归子虚,亡入鬼趣,难复人身,是则可痛也已!夫人生在世,成我名者损我神,入悖货者亦悖出,即所谓甚爱大费,多藏厚亡者也。爱至于大费,是辱也。藏至于厚亡,是殆也。皆非长久之计也。太上以慈悲之心,立言觉以教人曰:「知足不辱,知止不殆,可以长久。」其斯为圣人之德也夫。
