金剛般若波羅蜜經略疏 2.32

2.32

In the first text, there are broadly five sections: first, four phrases revealing and establishing the real meaning; second, from 'The Buddha said: Subhūti' downward, revealing the fault through the inverse; third, from 'Subhūti, what the Tathāgata speaks of' downward, integrating with his noble intention; fourth, from 'yet childish...' downward, clarifying that delusion does not recognize truth; fifth, from 'Subhūti, childish...' downward, clarifying the integration and endorsement following correctness. Therefore the treatise gāthā says: 'In the equal, true dharmadhātu, / the Buddha does not liberate sentient beings; / because designations together with those aggregates / are not separate from the dharmadhātu.' Because conventional designations and the dharmadhātu are without distinction, the Tathāgata does not liberate a single sentient being; if he were to liberate sentient beings, that would be apprehending marks within the five aggregates. As for the text saying 'speaks of as non-beings,' because they do not give rise to noble dharmas, it therefore says 'non-beings.'
