法華文句記 8.53

8.53

「上懈退中三」，今略不頌第一中路。又不頌第三不能復進，文闕。重空三昧者，《大論》云：「無相無相乃至無願無願」，觀心釋化亦須約圓。頌合譬中，經云「為一切導師」，文云「合五百」者，即導師譬，五百由旬從所行說。上頌開中不頌中路者，亦是文略，應云亦不頌不進，今頌合中路，又無餘二。「不縱不橫」具如《止觀》第二第三及《玄》文三法。

Regarding "The three parts in the remissness and retreat above": now it briefly does not versify the first, the halfway road. Nor does it versify the third, being unable to advance further; the text is lacking. Regarding the double emptiness samādhi: the Great Treatise says, "Signlessness of signlessness, up to wishlessness of wishlessness." Explaining the phantom through contemplation of the mind must also be in terms of the perfect [teaching]. In the verse matching the parable, the sūtra says "As a guide for all," and the commentary says "Matches the five hundred": this is the parable of the guide; the five hundred yojanas are spoken of in terms of what is traversed. The fact that the verse above opening [the provisional] does not versify the halfway road is also an abbreviation in the text; it should be said that it also does not versify not advancing; now the verse matches the halfway road, but lacks the other two. "Neither vertical nor horizontal" is fully as in the second and third [fascicles] of the Mohe zhiguan and the three dharmas in the Profound Meaning.
