2.3

約教者,住天園是示善,有牛嚼是示惡,三藏意也。以牛嚼身得道,此示惡非惡也,居天園而嚼,示善非善,通教意。示界內外善惡者,別教意。示善惡實相者,圓教意。

In terms of the teachings: dwelling in the heavenly grove displays good, while having the ox's chewing displays evil—this is the meaning of the Tripiṭaka [teaching]. Attaining the Way through a body that chews like an ox shows that evil is not evil; dwelling in the heavenly grove while chewing shows that good is not good—this is the meaning of the shared teaching. Displaying good and evil within and beyond the [three] realms is the meaning of the distinctive teaching. Displaying the true aspect of good and evil is the meaning of the perfect teaching.
