法華文句記 7.171

7.171

理一義異。言理一者，秖緣理一是故性修相對離合。言義異者，對生死邊名為相對。理體本淨名為種類。又聞能觀智名為了種，聞所緣理名為正種，即是理淨與事淨為類。

They are one in principle but different in meaning. That they are one in principle means that precisely because the principle is one, nature and cultivation are mutually contrasted, separated, and combined. That they are different in meaning means that in contrast to the aspect of birth and death, it is called "mutually contrasted"; while the substance of principle being originally pure is called "category." Furthermore, hearing the wisdom capable of contemplation is called the revealing seed, and hearing the principle that is the object of contemplation is called the direct seed; this means that purity of principle and purity of phenomena form a category.
