5.114

四、明圓教三法者,以真性軌為乘體。不偽名真,不改名性,即正因常住,諸佛所師,謂此法也。一切眾生亦悉一乘,眾生即涅槃相,不可復滅;涅槃即生死,無滅不生。故《大品》云:「是乘不動、不出。」即此乘也。

Fourth, in clarifying the three dharmas of the perfect teaching, the track of the real nature is taken as the substance of the vehicle. Unfalsified is named 'real', unaltering is named 'nature'; that is, the proper cause that is constantly abiding, what all buddhas take as master—this is that dharma. All sentient beings are also entirely the single vehicle; sentient beings are themselves the mark of nirvāṇa, which cannot be extinguished again; nirvāṇa is itself saṃsāra, without extinction and unarisen. Thus the Pañcaviṃśati-sāhasrikā-prajñāpāramitā-sūtra says: 'This vehicle does not stir, does not go forth.' It is precisely this vehicle.
