妙法蓮華經玄義 2.33

2.33

佛界十法者，皆約中道分別也。《淨名》云：「一切眾生皆菩提相，不可復得。」此即緣因為佛相。性以據內者，智願猶在不失，智即了因為佛性。自性清淨心，即是正因為佛體。此即三軌也（云云）。力者，初發菩提心，超二乘上，名為力。作者，四弘誓願要期也。因即智慧莊嚴也。緣即福德莊嚴也。果即一念相應，大覺朗然，無上菩提，為習果也。報即大般涅槃果，果斷德，禪定三昧，一切具足，是報果也。本末等者，即相性三諦與究竟三諦不異，故言等也。空諦等者，元初眾生如，乃至佛如皆等也。俗諦等者，眾生未發心，佛記當作佛。佛既已成佛，說佛本生事，即是初後相在假等也。中等者，凡聖皆實相也。就佛界亦九亦十。

As for the ten dharmas of the buddha realm, they are all distinguished in terms of the Middle Way. The Vimalakīrti-nirdeśa says: 'All sentient beings are the mark of bodhi, which cannot be attained again.' This is the conditioning cause as the buddha mark. That nature relies on what is internal means that wisdom and vows still remain without being lost; wisdom is the revealing cause as the buddha nature. The mind pure in its own nature is the direct cause as the buddha substance. These are the three tracks (and so on). Force: initially generating the bodhimind and transcending the two vehicles is called force. Action: the commitments of the four universal vows. Cause: the adornment of wisdom. Condition: the adornment of merit. Effect: in a single moment of thought corresponding, great awakening shines brightly, with unsurpassed bodhi as the habitual effect. Retribution: the fruit of the great parinirvāṇa, the fruit of the virtue of severance, dhyāna and samādhi, completely fulfilling all things—this is the fruit-retribution. That the beginning and end are equal means that the three truths of mark and nature are not different from the three truths of the ultimate; therefore it is said they are equal. That the truth of emptiness is equal means that from the original suchness of sentient beings up to the suchness of the Buddha, all are equal. That the conventional truth is equal means that before sentient beings have generated the [bodhi]mind, the Buddha prophesies that they will become buddhas; once the Buddha has already achieved buddhahood, he preaches the events of his own past lives—this is the provisional equality of the mutual presence of beginning and end. That the middle is equal means that both ordinary and sagely are the true mark. Regarding the buddha realm, there are also nine and also ten.
