若住等者。反明也。徵釋。經意云:菩薩作福,若生貪著則成有漏,因既有漏果亦有漏,得三十二相但同輪王,不名為佛。此則因果俱失,成其所疑。今既作福不生貪著,則因成無漏,因既無漏果亦復然,所得三十二相莊嚴法身,名之為佛。云何疑其失因及果?

"If one abides," and so forth, clarifies by contrast. Questioning and explaining: The sūtra's intended meaning is that if a bodhisattva creates merit and gives rise to greedy attachment, it becomes contaminated; the cause being contaminated, the fruit is also contaminated, and attaining the thirty-two marks merely makes one identical to a cakravartin, not named a Buddha. This would mean that both cause and fruit are lost, forming the doubt raised. Now, since one creates merit without giving rise to greedy attachment, the cause becomes uncontaminated; since the cause is uncontaminated, the fruit is likewise so, and the thirty-two marks attained adorn the dharmakāya, being named a Buddha. How could one doubt that its cause and fruit are lost?
