四無所畏===﹝出大智度論﹞

此四通言無畏者,由佛十力之智內充,明了決定,故於大眾中凡有所說,則無恐懼之相,故名無所畏。(十力者,知是處非處智力、知過去現在未來業報智力、知諸禪解脫三昧智力、知諸根勝劣智力、知種種解智力、知種種界智力、知一切至處道智力、知天眼無礙智力、知宿命無漏智力、知永斷習氣智力也。)

〔一、一切智無所畏〕,一切智者,於世間、出世間一切諸法盡知盡見也。無所畏者,如佛言,我是一切正智人,故得安隱,得無所畏;在大眾中作師子吼,能轉法輪;諸沙門、婆羅門、若天魔梵、若復餘眾,實不能轉。是一切智無所畏。(梵語沙門,華言勤息,謂勤行眾善,止息諸惡也。梵語婆羅門,華言淨行。天魔梵者,天魔即他化自在天,梵即梵天魔。)

〔二、漏盡無所畏〕,漏盡者,惑業生死俱盡也。無所畏者,如佛言,我一切漏盡,故得安隱,得無所畏;在大眾中作師子吼,能轉法輪;諸沙門、婆羅門、若天魔梵、若復餘眾,實不能轉,是為漏盡無所畏。

〔三、說障道無所畏〕,說障道者,說彼魔、外障蔽聖道之法也。無所畏者,如佛言,我說障法,故得安隱,得無所畏,在大眾中,作師子吼,能轉法輪;諸沙門、婆羅門、若天魔梵、若復餘眾,實不能轉,是為說障道無所畏。

〔四、說盡苦道無所畏〕,說盡苦道者,說能盡諸苦之道法也。無所畏者,如佛言,我所說聖道,能出世間,能盡諸苦,故得安隱,得無所畏,在大眾中作師子吼,能轉法輪;諸沙門、婆羅門、若天魔梵、若復餘眾,實不能轉,是為說盡苦道無所畏。

四無所畏===﹝出大智度論

無所畏有二種:一、佛無所畏,二、菩薩無所畏。今此四無所畏,皆言菩薩也。蓋菩薩具諸智慧,明了決定,而於眾中說法,則無恐畏之相,故名無所畏。(菩薩,梵語具云菩提薩埵,華言覺有情。)

〔一、能持無所畏〕,能持者,謂菩薩聞一切法,常能受持,憶念不忘,故於眾中說法得無所畏也。

〔二、知根無所畏〕,知根者,謂菩薩知一切眾生諸根利鈍,隨其所應而為說法,故於眾中說法得無所畏也。

〔三、決疑無所畏〕,決疑者,決剖一切眾生之疑難也。謂凡有一切來難問者,菩薩悉能如法剖決而答,故於眾中說法得無所畏也。

〔四、答報無所畏〕,答報者,以言辭應答酬報其所問也。謂凡一切眾生聽受問難,菩薩悉能隨意如法而答,故於眾中說法得無所畏也。

瑜伽五十卷十頁云:如來所有四無畏文,如契經說,應知其相。謂諸如來,於其四處,在大眾中,而自稱歎。謂所知障,永解脫故;於一切種一切法中,現等正覺;不共聲聞。是第一處。諸煩惱障、永解脫故;證得永盡;共諸聲聞。是第二處。為求解脫諸有情類,超過眾苦,說出離道。是第三處。即於能出道得為礙,說諸障法,應當遠離。是第四處。如來既於如是四處,如其實義,自稱歎已;次後他於自所稱歎前之二處,所有相違身語意業,而興謗難。復於後二自稱歎處,所有相違前後乖反墮非理相而興謗難。謂於世間有眼見者,無眼見者,有他心智者,無他心智者,如來於此自稱歎處能為對治諸謗難中,都不見有如實因相。由是因緣,於此四處,能自了知;坦然無畏,心無怯劣,無所疑慮,都無驚懼。又佛大師,唯有爾所正應稱歎。謂自利行,及利他行,俱善圓滿。當知此中,前二稱歎,自利行滿;後二稱歎,利他行滿。此中如來,若自稱歎於一切法現等覺故成正等覺;當知正為等趣大乘諸菩薩故。若自稱歎一切漏盡,當知正為等趣聲聞及獨覺乘諸有情故。若復稱歎能出離道,及諸障法;當知俱為等趣諸乘諸有情故。如是如來所說經句,謂我為諸菩薩聲聞,說出離道;乃至廣說。諸結集者,於所結集聲聞藏中,除菩薩言。於所結集菩薩藏中,但唯誦此菩薩之言。
