法華義疏 5.180

5.180

前文既明昔教說五眾是生滅，即知今教明五眾不生不滅。故〈方便品〉云「諸法從本來，常自寂滅相」。又《中論》云「為聲聞人說十二因緣是生滅，為菩薩說十二因緣不生不滅」，故大小二乘，有生滅、無生滅二觀義也。

Since the preceding text explained that the former teaching stated that the five aggregates are arising and ceasing, one readily knows that the present teaching illuminates the five aggregates as neither arising nor ceasing. Thus the “Expedient Means Chapter” states, “All phenomena from the beginning / are constantly marked by quiescent cessation.” Furthermore, the *Mūlamadhyamakakārikā* states, “For the sake of śrāvakas, the twelve links of dependent origination are taught as arising and ceasing; for the sake of bodhisattvas, the twelve links of dependent origination are taught as neither arising nor ceasing.” Thus between the two vehicles of Mahāyāna and Hīnayāna, there are the meanings of the two contemplations: with arising and ceasing, and without arising and ceasing.
