妙法蓮華經玄義 6.128

6.128

三、就所詮者，若對六道眾生說人天乘者，此詮有為，能詮、所詮俱麁。若對鈍根三藏五門，詮於生滅四諦理，此則能詮、所詮俱麁。若通教體法五門，比於三藏析門，體門能詮雖巧，而所詮猶是真諦，所詮亦麁。若別教五門，能詮為麁，所詮中道為妙。若圓教五門，能詮、所詮俱皆是妙也。

Third, regarding what is signified: if expounding the vehicle of humans and devas for beings of the six destinies, this signifies the conditioned, and both the signifier and the signified are crude. If expounding the principle of the Four Noble Truths of arising and ceasing through the five gates of the tripiṭaka for those of dull faculties, then both the signifier and the signified are crude. If the five gates of embodying phenomena in the shared teaching are compared to the gate of analytical reduction in the tripiṭaka, although the signifier of the gate of embodying is skillful, what is signified is still the real truth, so what is signified is also crude. In the five gates of the distinctive teaching, the signifier is crude, but what is signified, the Middle Way, is subtle. In the five gates of the perfect teaching, both the signifier and the signified are subtle.
