法華玄義釋籤 3.8

3.8

二辨相中二：先引大師釋，次私釋。初文四悉自為四段。初文二：初釋、次料簡。初文中言「世界」者，謂五陰差別，界入亦然。次文者「若無」下問，「人者」下答，「第一義」下問，「答」下答也。「外人」下因釋。外人橫計，不名世界、不達差別，但總計我，無因謂自然，邪因謂梵天等。此四悉文全出《大論》。為人中三：標、釋、結。釋中二：初正釋，次「如雜業」下立傍正相以釋疑。初文云「或聽不聽」者，「聽」謂聽許，雖復雙舉，意在於聽；聽是所宜，宜即生善。次釋疑者，恐引此為疑：生善文中復有破惡者何耶？於中先出相狀，次正判。初文言「如雜業」等者，文引二經云：如經中說，以雜業故雜生世間，及更有破群那經。

Second, in discerning the characteristics, there are two [parts]: first, citing the Great Master's explanation; next, the author's own explanation. In the first text, the four siddhāntas naturally form four sections. The first section has two: first, an explanation; next, an analysis. In the first text, the word "world" refers to the differences among the five aggregates; the realms and bases are likewise. In the next text: from "If there are no..." onward is a question; from "A person..." onward is an answer; from "Ultimate truth..." onward is a question; and under "Answer" is the answer. From "Non-Buddhists..." onward, it explains accordingly. Non-Buddhists impute erroneously; this is not called "world", nor do they comprehend differences, but merely impute a self in a general manner, considering causelessness to be spontaneity, or wrong causes to be Brahmā and so forth. The text on these four siddhāntas comes entirely from the Da zhidu lun. Under [the siddhānta for] the individual, there are three: the heading, the explanation, and the conclusion. In the explanation, there are two: first, the direct explanation; next, from "As in mixed karma..." onward, secondary and primary characteristics are established to resolve doubts. When the first text says "sometimes permitting, sometimes not permitting": "permitting" means allowing; although both are mentioned, the intent lies in permitting. Permitting is what is suitable, and suitability produces good. As for the next resolution of doubts: it was feared that this would be cited as a doubt: in the text on producing good, why is there also the destruction of evil? Within this, it first sets forth the characteristics, and next directly assesses them. When the first text says "As in mixed karma..." and so forth: the text cites two sūtras, saying: as spoken in a sūtra, because of mixed karma, one is born variegatedly in the world; and further there is the Phalguna Sūtra.
