妙法蓮華經玄義 8.15

8.15

二、翻為契者，契緣、契事、契義。世界說是契緣；隨宜說是契生善；隨對治說是契破惡，是為契事；隨第一義說，是契義。

2. Translated as "tallying" (*qì*): tallying with conditions, tallying with facts, and tallying with meaning. Preaching according to the mundane is tallying with conditions; preaching according to suitability is tallying with generating good; preaching according to counteraction is tallying with destroying evil—these are tallying with facts; preaching according to the supreme truth is tallying with meaning.
