妙法蓮華經文句 3.12

3.12

上問次第者，自漸一途；非次第者，不定一途。既言種種相貌，何啻兩途而言是煩耶？此次第雜亂，兩番六度，擬他土開三藏，後說方等十二部經，辯六度相貌，具如此間不異。

The sequential inquiry above belongs to the gradual path; the non-sequential belongs to the indeterminate path. Since it speaks of "various characteristics," how could it be limited to merely two paths, such that one could say it is complicated? These two rounds of six pāramitās—sequential and mixed—model the other lands opening the Tripiṭaka and later preaching the vaipulya twelve divisions of scripture, discriminating the characteristics of the six pāramitās, fully identical to this land without distinction.
