2.271

述曰,世親云,此即展轉疑中第三段疑也。於中曲有三段,此即為初文也。謂有疑曰:「雖相成就,不可得見如來,以非彼體,以如來法身為體;而如來法身,以見相成就,比知則知如來法身為福相成就。」此疑意云,報、化二身,即以法身為體,其外報、化身既有相好,以外比知內,法身亦應有其相好也。如覩人面,即知心事故。就此之中,文有其五,一者、如來問,二、善現不正答,三、如來却質,四、善現正答,五、舉頌以成,此初也。問意云,可於報、化身三十二相觀法身如來不?

The Commentary says: Vasubandhu states that this is the third section of doubt within the progressive doubts. Within it, there are three detailed sections, and this is the first passage. That is, there is a doubt that says: 'Although the marks are accomplished, one cannot see the Tathāgata, because they are not his essence, for the Tathāgata has the dharmakāya as his essence; yet as for the Tathāgata's dharmakāya, by seeing the accomplishment of the marks, one knows through inference that the Tathāgata's dharmakāya is the accomplishment of marks of merit.' The meaning of this doubt is: the reward body and transformation body have the dharmakāya as their essence; since the external reward and transformation bodies have the major and minor marks, by inferring the internal from the external, the dharmakāya should also have its marks and signs, just as when looking at a person's face, one knows the thoughts of their heart. Within this, the text has five parts: first, the Tathāgata asks; second, Subhūti answers incorrectly; third, the Tathāgata cross-examines; fourth, Subhūti answers correctly; fifth, verses are cited to confirm it. This is the first. The meaning of the question is: can one view the dharmakāya Tathāgata in the thirty-two marks of the reward and transformation bodies, or not?
