惡覺 [e jue]—Evil Thought—[Term] (術語 [shu yu]) Evil thought (思想 [si xiang]). There are eight different kinds. The end of Volume 5 of Dasheng Yizhang (大乘義章 [da cheng yi zhang]) states: "The thought of an evil mind is called jue (cognition). Because it violates right principles, it is called 'evil'. The evil thoughts are different and separated into eight kinds." Volume 5, Chapter 4 of Zhi Guan (止觀 [zhi guan]) says: "The eight winds (八風 [ba feng]) and evil thoughts cannot penetrate."

惡覺—【術語】惡之思想。有八種之別。大乘義章五末曰:「邪心思想,名之為覺。違正理,故稱為惡。惡覺不同,離分有八。」止觀五之四曰:「八風惡覺,所不能入。」
