妙法蓮華經文句 6.14

6.14

From "The Tathāgata has already departed from the burning house of the triple world" onwards, thirty and a half lines, is the second [section], versifying the synthesis of the particular parable. The versification of the opening above was entirely without non-fictiveness, whereas the versification of the synthesis here possesses it. The first three gāthās versify seeing all sentient beings subjected to birth, old age, and so forth, synthesizing the parable of seeing the fire. The text of the versification of the parable of seeing the fire above had three parts, and the synthesis here also has three: the first gāthā versifies the above [point of] the Tathāgata being able to see, precisely because he dwells peacefully in tranquility, he is able to see the children in the five turbidities, directly synthesizing "hearing someone say"; next, from "Now this triple world" onwards, the second [part], one and a half lines, versifies the above [point of] the seen sentient beings being burned and boiled by birth, old age, sickness, and death, synthesizing the second parable of the fire seen; from "I alone" onwards, the third [part], half a gāthā, versifies the above [point where] the Buddha, having seen this, then had this thought, synthesizing the alarmed entry into the burning house.
