1.22

夫適化無方、陶誘非一,考聖心以息患為主,統教意以開道為宗,若因開以取悟則聖教為之開,若由合而受道則聖教為之合,如其兩曉並為甘露,必也雙迷俱成毒藥。若然者,豈可偏守一逕以應壅九逵者哉!

Now, adapting transformation has no fixed rule, and cultivating and guiding are not singular. Examining the sage's mind, quelling suffering is taken as primary; discerning the intention of the teaching, opening the Path is taken as the principle. If one attains awakening by means of division, then the sacred teaching is divided for them; if one receives the Path by means of integration, then the sacred teaching is integrated for them. If one understands both, both become sweet nectar; if one is confused by both, both become poison. If that is so, how could one rigidly adhere to a single path to block the grand avenues?
