English version: Question: 'Your teachings, misusing the theories of other schools and causing much obstruction, what is its fundamental purpose?' Answer: 'The so-called 'one nature equality' (一性等) means that although 'nature' (性) is one, it does not have a fixed 'one' nature. Therefore, it can cause the three thousand forms of matter (色法) and mind (心法) to exist distinctly. This is establishing all dharmas from the 'non-abiding root' (无住本). It should be known that whether it is principle (理) or phenomena (事), both contain this truth.' Therefore, the 'Seventh Record' explains this passage by saying: 'In terms of principle, it is the inherent virtue of conditioned understanding (性德缘了); in terms of phenomena, it is the three causes of cultivated virtue (修德三因); when deluded, it is the cycle of the three paths (三道流转); when enlightened, it is the supreme function in the fruit (果).’ These four levels are all established from the reality (实相) in delusion. Now, it is explained that the reality in delusion is the 'non-abiding root,' which is the 'one nature non-nature' (一性无性) mentioned in the current text. The above four levels are 'establishing all dharmas,' which is the 'three thousand distinctly' (三千宛然) mentioned in the current text. Since the first level takes the inherent virtue of conditioned understanding as all dharmas, it must take the right cause (正因) as the 'non-abiding root'; since the remaining three levels take reverse and forward cultivation (逆顺二修) as all dharmas, they must take the three causes of inherent virtue as the 'non-abiding root.' This is the total and separate relationship of the two levels of principle and phenomena. Question: 'Since the reality in delusion is taken as 'one nature,' corresponding to the three thousand dharmas as difference, it should be principle as the totality. Why criticize the views of other schools?' Answer: 'Because the three thousand dharmas are of the same 'nature,' when following conditions to become myriad dharmas, just by citing one dharma, all dharmas can be totally included. Sentient beings have been entirely in delusion since beginningless time. If only true nature is discussed as the totality, how can all dharmas be included in every matter? And specifically citing one thought (一念) is to establish the realm of wisdom (观慧) from a close and important perspective. If it is shown that one thought totally includes all dharmas, then it will reveal that all dharmas are of the same true nature.' Therefore, the 'Explanation Sign' (释签) says: 'From the perspective of conventional truth (俗谛), it is the hundred realms and thousand suchnesses (百界千如); from the perspective of ultimate truth (真谛), it is dwelling in one thought (同居一念).' It should be known that because of the same 'nature,' one can dwell in one thought. Therefore, dwelling in one thought is used to reveal the same true nature, not to say that one thought is called ultimate truth. Is it not that dwelling in one dust is not ultimate truth? The current text takes 'one nature' as the totality, and the preceding and following texts take 'one thought' as the totality. This is the mutual manifestation of principle and phenomena. These two sentences precisely explain the reason for including the separate into the totality. Because 'one nature non-nature' establishes the principle and phenomena of three thousand, the two levels of three thousand dwell in one thought. Is it like other explanations that directly call one thought true nature?' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 二、当知下,就理事明谛境二: 初、约理事明三谛二:
