法華玄論 8.81

8.81

次總評。上來諸釋皆非經意。所以然者，此經三周說權實，有法譬、有合譬，此五百由旬亦有合譬。諸經師不觀合譬文、不解合譬意，故引餘處經意以釋此文，故皆僻謬也。次出今譬意。今所釋者，三界為三百，聲聞地為四百，緣覺地為五百也。

Next, an overall appraisal: The above explanations are all not the intention of the sūtra. Why is this? In this sūtra, the provisional and real are preached in three cycles, with doctrine and parable, and with matching the parable; these five hundred yojanas also have a matching of the parable. Sūtra masters do not observe the text of matching the parable and do not understand the intention of matching the parable, and therefore cite the intent of sūtras elsewhere to explain this text, hence they are all biased and mistaken. Next, to present the intention of the present parable: What is explained now is that the three realms are three hundred, the stage of śrāvakas is four hundred, and the stage of pratyekabuddhas is five hundred.
