10.127
前明五十小劫即是半日,既是近遠無二,今類此可知。竺道生云:「言彼長者即伽耶是也。伽耶是者即非復伽耶。伽耶既非,彼長者何獨是乎!然則長短斯忘長短存焉」,蓋是古舊之說,勿得疑之。
Earlier it was explained that fifty minor kalpas were just half a day; since near and far are non-dual, this case can be understood by analogy. Zhu Daosheng said: "Calling that one an elder is precisely this Gayā. Since Gayā is this, it is no longer Gayā. If Gayā is not [merely this], how could that elder alone be so? Therefore, when both long and short are forgotten, long and short are preserved." This is indeed an ancient explanation; do not doubt it.
