法華玄論 4.104

4.104

Answer: Some naturally awaken through requiring explanation, while others naturally awaken without requiring explanation; how could one use this to judge definitive and non-definitive? If every single sūtra were to clarify all meanings completely, there would be only one teaching and only one spiritual capacity; why would there be multiple texts? Third, the Śrīmālādevī-sūtra fully clarifies that the true Dharma produces the five vehicles and gathers the five vehicles back into the true Dharma. The Saddharmapuṇḍarīka-sūtra merely clarifies unifying the three vehicles into the One Vehicle and opening the One Vehicle into the three vehicles; it does not directly unify humans and devas into the One Vehicle, nor does it open the One Vehicle into the three vehicles and into the human and deva vehicles.
