金剛般若經贊述 2.316

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [2.316](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1700.2.316)

述曰，此第二也。世親云，但寄微塵為喻，非如言而有實，如衛世師等所執微塵也。「佛說微塵眾」者，謂寄微塵以喻化身也，「則非微塵」者，非如外道等所執實微塵也。

> The commentary states: This is the second \[part\]. Vasubandhu says: It merely borrows fine dust as a metaphor; it is not that they are real in accordance with the words, like the fine dust particles clung to by the Vaiśeṣikas and others. “What the Buddha speaks of as a collection of fine dust particles” refers to borrowing fine dust to serve as a metaphor for the manifestation body; “is not fine dust” means it is not like the real fine dust particles clung to by non-Buddhists and others.
