English version Exhaustive. Unobstructed eloquence in terms of names and meanings (unimpeded eloquence in understanding names and meanings). All Buddhas and Tathagatas teach according to circumstances, comprehensively explaining the nature and phenomena of things without doubt or obstruction. This is unobstructed eloquence in terms of names and laws (unimpeded eloquence in understanding names and laws). The Tathagata's teachings are rich and diverse in words and meanings. Speaking with one voice, all beings can understand according to their kind. Skillful and convenient, with abundant wisdom, never weary. The words and meanings set forth are without impediment. This is called explanation. The Dharma spoken is without obstruction or stagnation, and is called unobstructed (etc.). What are the different paths of emptiness and existence, and where do the differences between breadth and brevity lie? Use this as a metaphor: recording a thousand things, ten thousand things, ultimately leads to the same principle. What does '曷 (hé)' mean? '辙 (zhé)' means road. The names of emptiness and existence are secret intentions and expedient sayings. If one explores the ultimate truth, existence and emptiness are not different. 'Existence' refers to accumulation and reality, discussed in terms of attachment and prejudice. 'Emptiness' means that things are formed by conditioned arising, and the enlightened nature is not truly existent. Understanding this, one knows that delusion and enlightenment are inherently different, but from the source, emptiness and existence are not distinct. The sayings of breadth and brevity are also not different in reality. If one is enlightened, four sentences are sufficient, and there is no need to seek more, which is 'brevity'. If one is deluded, even if one reads ten thousand volumes of mantras, it is still like falling into delusion, which is 'breadth'. It is only that beings have differences in their capacity for dullness and sharpness, but breadth and brevity are not different in reality. What does '奚 (xī)' mean? (etc.). Investigating the root will surely taste the same as hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea; dwelling on the end will compete and flow into the five slanders. Speaking of 'investigating the root', investigation means exhausting. The root means the essence, which is beyond names and forms, and is the truth. Speaking from the perspective of understanding and integration, if one grasps the root, one will know that all rivers return to the same sea. Tasting a drop of water from the great sea, one knows that the taste of all rivers is the same. Speaking of 'dwelling on the end', dwelling is due to delusion. The end refers to those who are attached to the teachings of emptiness and existence, discussed in terms of their partiality. The 'Two Nights Sutra' says: 'On a certain night, I attained perfect enlightenment; on a certain night, I entered Parinirvana. In between these two nights, I said nothing at all.' Not speaking is what the Buddha said. If one says that the Tathagata has said something, that is slandering the Buddha, because one cannot understand the meaning of what I said. Knowing that the Dharma of the essence is beyond words, it is what the mind wants to think but cannot think, what the mouth wants to say but cannot say, it cannot be known by wisdom, it cannot be recognized by consciousness. Those with biased views then establish these five slanders. The names of these five slanders are: first, the slander of addition; second, the slander of subtraction; third, the slander of contradiction; fourth, the slander of frivolousness; fifth, the slander of foolish abandonment. Like this, these five slanders are explained one by one. The first is saying that all dharmas are 'existent'. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

法本不有。言有者增益谤。法性本空。何得言有。二者言诸法无。本法不无。言无者损减谤。依他性有。何得言无。三亦有亦无。本法离有离无。相违谤。空有并与理将违越。四者非有非无。本法无来不有。即今不无。是戏论谤。非有者言空。非无云有。空有不定。明知戏论。又第一义中无有少法可得。若立一法起名相者。皆成戏论。五非以有以无。本法无有文字语言。若言法无名字。是愚痴谤。翻第四成第五。四言非空者是有。有非是有。言非有者是空。无非是无。有非是有。还成无义。无非是无。却成有义。若如是者。明知迷愚实非智者。 是以小乘漂于有有部执繁兴胜义溺于空空诤论纷起 言是以小乘漂于有有者。漂者浮也。人我法我二俱定有。故言二有 言胜义溺于空空者。溺者沈也。上之二义悉皆是空。故名二空。前宗执有。后者滞空。空有相违诤论竞起。言人我者。五蕴假和合处横计有人。离我我所人无我矣。言法我者。执因缘法实为起生皆有自性。故称为我。因缘生法悉皆虚妄。本自不生体无动摇。法无我矣。 尚驱妄境未越昏衢徒向真风虚沾法雨 言尚驱妄境者。沈空住有总名妄境 未越昏衢者。闇道也。若也起上僻见。未越于沈轮 言徒向真风者。偏执者徒劳趣向于真宗 风者化也。 现代汉语译本 法本非有。若说‘有’,便是增益诽谤。法性本为空,怎么能说‘有’呢? 第二种说法是诸法皆‘无’。但本法并非‘无’,若说‘无’,便是损减诽谤。依他性是存在的,怎么能说‘无’呢? 第三种说法是‘亦有亦无’。但本法离于‘有’和‘无’,这种说法是互相矛盾的诽谤,‘空’和‘有’并存与真理相违背。 第四种说法是‘非有非无’。但本法无来无去,并非‘有’,即当下也并非‘无’,这是一种戏论诽谤。说‘非有’就是说‘空’,说‘非无’就是说‘有’,‘空’和‘有’不定,明显是戏论。而且在第一义谛中,没有丝毫法可以获得,如果立一个法,起一个名相,就都成了戏论。 第五种说法是‘非以有以无’。但本法没有文字语言,如果说法没有名字,就是愚痴诽谤,这与第四种说法相反,成了第五种。 第四种说法说‘非空’,那就是‘有’,但‘有’并非真‘有’。说‘非有’,那就是‘空’,但‘无’并非真‘无’。‘有’并非真‘有’,最终还是成了‘无’义。‘无’并非真‘无’,却成了‘有’义。如果这样,明显是迷惑愚痴,实在不是智者。 因此,小乘佛教沉溺于‘有’,有部(Sarvastivada)的执着繁荣兴盛;胜义谛沉溺于‘空’,‘空’的争论纷纷兴起。 说小乘佛教沉溺于‘有’,‘有’是指什么呢?沉溺是指浮于表面。人我和法我两种都认为是真实存在的,所以说是‘二有’。 说胜义谛沉溺于‘空’,‘空’是指什么呢?沉溺是指沉没其中。上面说的两种意义都认为是‘空’,所以称为‘二空’。之前的宗派执着于‘有’,后来的宗派滞留于‘空’,‘空’和‘有’相互违背,争论不断。 说‘人我’,是指五蕴假合之处,横生计较,认为有人存在。离开了我以及我所拥有的,人就没有我了。说‘法我’,是指执着因缘法真实生起,都具有自性,所以称为‘我’。因缘生法都是虚妄的,本来不生,本体没有动摇,法就没有我了。 还在追逐虚妄的境界,没有超越昏暗的道路,只是徒劳地趋向真理之风,虚假地沾染佛法的甘露。 说还在追逐虚妄的境界,是指沉溺于‘空’或执着于‘有’,总称为虚妄的境界。 没有超越昏暗的道路,是指没有超越黑暗的道路。如果产生上述偏颇的见解,就没有超越沉沦的轮回。 说只是徒劳地趋向真理之风,是指偏执的人徒劳地趋向于真正的宗义。 ‘风’是指教化。

English version The Dharma is fundamentally non-existent. To say it ‘exists’ is an exaggeration and slander. The nature of Dharma is fundamentally empty; how can one say it ‘exists’? The second view is that all Dharmas are ‘non-existent.’ But the fundamental Dharma is not ‘non-existent.’ To say it is ‘non-existent’ is a diminishing slander. Dependent origination exists; how can one say it is ‘non-existent’? The third view is ‘both existent and non-existent.’ But the fundamental Dharma is apart from ‘existence’ and ‘non-existence.’ This view is a contradictory slander; the coexistence of ‘emptiness’ and ‘existence’ contradicts the truth. The fourth view is ‘neither existent nor non-existent.’ But the fundamental Dharma neither comes nor goes, is not ‘existent,’ and is not ‘non-existent’ in the present moment. This is a playful slander. To say ‘not existent’ is to say ‘empty,’ and to say ‘not non-existent’ is to say ‘existent.’ ‘Emptiness’ and ‘existence’ are uncertain, clearly a playful argument. Moreover, in the ultimate truth, there is not a single Dharma to be obtained. If one establishes a Dharma and gives it a name, it all becomes a playful argument. The fifth view is ‘not by existence, not by non-existence.’ But the fundamental Dharma has no written language. To say that the Dharma has no name is a foolish slander, reversing the fourth view into the fifth. The fourth view says ‘not empty,’ which is ‘existent,’ but ‘existence’ is not truly ‘existent.’ To say ‘not existent’ is ‘empty,’ but ‘non-existence’ is not truly ‘non-existent.’ ‘Existence’ is not truly ‘existent,’ ultimately becoming meaningless. ‘Non-existence’ is not truly ‘non-existent,’ but becomes ‘existent.’ If this is the case, it is clearly delusion and foolishness, certainly not wisdom. Therefore, the Hinayana (Small Vehicle) is adrift in ‘existence,’ with the Sarvastivada (有部) school’s attachment flourishing; the ultimate truth is drowned in ‘emptiness,’ with disputes about ‘emptiness’ arising. To say the Hinayana is adrift in ‘existence,’ what does ‘existence’ refer to? Adrift means floating on the surface. Both the personal self (人我, pudgala-atma) and the Dharma self (法我, dharma-atma) are considered truly existent, hence ‘two existences.’ To say the ultimate truth is drowned in ‘emptiness,’ what does ‘emptiness’ refer to? Drowned means submerged within. The two meanings mentioned above are considered ‘empty,’ hence ‘two emptinesses.’ The previous school clings to ‘existence,’ the latter school is stuck in ‘emptiness.’ ‘Emptiness’ and ‘existence’ contradict each other, leading to constant disputes. To say ‘personal self,’ it refers to the aggregation of the five skandhas (五蕴, pañca-skandha), from which one falsely calculates and believes that a person exists. Apart from the self and what belongs to the self, there is no personal self. To say ‘Dharma self,’ it refers to the attachment to conditioned Dharmas as truly arising and possessing self-nature, hence called ‘self.’ Conditioned Dharmas are all illusory, fundamentally unarisen, and their essence is unwavering; thus, there is no Dharma self. Still chasing after illusory realms, not yet transcending the dark path, merely turning towards the wind of truth in vain, falsely receiving the rain of Dharma. To say still chasing after illusory realms, it refers to being drowned in ‘emptiness’ or clinging to ‘existence,’ collectively called illusory realms. Not yet transcending the dark path means not transcending the path of darkness. If one develops the aforementioned biased views, one has not transcended the cycle of suffering. To say merely turning towards the wind of truth in vain, it refers to those who are biased turning towards the true doctrine in vain. ‘Wind’ refers to transformation (教化, teachings). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
