觀音玄義 1.49

1.49

料簡冥顯兩益，凡有三十六句。料簡權實二智者，前問答，實智照真而眾生得脫，權智照假而眾生得度。度為度權，亦度於實；脫為脫真，亦脫於假。答此亦具四句，或因真智解脫於權，七難消除，二求願滿是也；或因真智解脫於實，三毒皆離是也；或因權智得度於實，三十三身得度是也；或因權智得度於權，於怖畏急難之中得無畏是也。或二俱度脫、或二俱不度不脫，今依文判，互出一邊，前文脫權、後文度實。

In distinguishing covert and overt, the two benefits, there are thirty-six propositions in all. In distinguishing the two wisdoms of expedient and real: in the former question-and-answer, real wisdom illuminates the true and sentient beings attain liberation, while expedient wisdom illuminates the provisional and sentient beings attain deliverance. Deliverance means deliverance in the expedient as well as deliverance in the real; liberation means liberation in the true as well as liberation in the provisional. The answer to this also possesses four propositions: either through true wisdom one is liberated from the expedient, as in the seven disasters being eliminated and the two wishes being fulfilled; or through true wisdom one is liberated from the real, as in the three poisons all being separated from; or through expedient wisdom one attains deliverance into the real, as in the thirty-three bodies attaining deliverance; or through expedient wisdom one attains deliverance into the expedient, as in attaining fearlessness amidst dread and acute distress. Or both are delivered and liberated, or both are neither delivered nor liberated. Now, determining it according to the text, each mentions one side reciprocally: the former text liberates from the expedient, and the latter text delivers into the real.
