法華玄義釋籤 1.93

1.93

標體中，先列、次釋。釋中先敘大師釋，次章安私釋。初文自四：初從「體」字去初釋字也。次從「故壽量品」下第二引同，從「今言實相」下第三簡非，從「斯乃」下第四結正。初釋字中又三：初釋字訓，次「各親」下引例為類，三「出世」下正出經體以同字義。初文可見。次文者，雖用儒宗不同彼意，彼明道喪故使獨親各子之局，所以禮興。今借彼禮法以譬體同，一切諸經咸歸實體，如各親其親；此之實體生一切法，如各子其子也。《禮記》第七云：「孔子曰：大道之行也天下為公，選賢與能、講信脩睦，故人不獨親其親，不獨子其子。」注云：「孝慈之道廣也。」今大道既隱，天下為家，各親其親、各子其子，禮義以為紀以正君臣、以篤父子，故義同也。

In designating the substance, it first lists and next explains. In the explanation, it first recounts the Great Master's explanation, and next Zhang'an's private explanation. The first text has four parts: first, from the word 'substance' onward, it first explains the word. Second, from 'Therefore the Chapter on the Lifespan...' downward, it cites the same. Third, from 'Now speaking of the true mark...' downward, it weeds out what is incorrect. Fourth, from 'This is...' downward, it concludes the correct. In first explaining the word, there are also three parts: first, explaining the etymology of the word; second, from 'each loving their own relatives...' downward, citing an analogy to show the category; third, from 'transcending the world...' downward, directly setting forth the substance of the sūtra to match the meaning of the word. The first text is clear. In the second text, although it uses the Confucian school, it differs from their intention: they explained that when the Way was lost, it caused the limitation of loving only one's own relatives and children, which is why ritual arose. Here, borrowing that ritual law to illustrate the identity of substance: all sūtras return to the real substance, like each loving their own relatives; this real substance produces all dharmas, like each treating their own children as children. The seventh chapter of the *Book of Rites* states: 'Confucius said: When the Great Way was practiced, the world was shared by all; the worthy and capable were chosen, trust was promoted and harmony cultivated. Therefore people did not love only their own parents, nor treat only their own children as children.' The commentary states: 'The way of filial piety and kindness was vast.' Now the Great Way has become hidden, the world is treated as a family, each loving their own parents and each treating their own children as children, with ritual and righteousness as the standard to rectify ruler and minister and make genuine father and son; therefore the meaning is the same.
