金剛三昧經論 3.133

3.133

論曰：此是第二重決。於中有二：先難、後決。是難意云：若佛所說言教之法非所取故，不如空華畢竟無者，是即此法應自然成，以無待故猶如真如。為決此難故說是偈，是偈意言：我所說法絕名言故，本無有無自他始終，若成若敗即不得住，云何得言自然成耶？是顯彼因有相違過，謂法無成敗，以無待故，如無所取，又如真如。由是道理彼難不成，難不成故所疑決矣。

The treatise states: This is the second [part], resolving again. In this there are two: first, an objection; second, the resolution. The meaning of the objection says: If the dharmas of teaching expounded by the Buddha are not grasped objects, and thus are not utterly nonexistent like sky-flowers, then these dharmas should be spontaneously established, because being without dependence, they are just like true thusness. To resolve this objection, this verse is spoken. The meaning of this verse says: Because the Dharma expounded by me transcends designations and words, it fundamentally lacks existence, nonexistence, self, other, beginning, and end; whether established or destroyed, it does not abide. How could it be said to be spontaneously established? This reveals that his logical reason has the fallacy of contradiction: namely, that dharmas are without establishment and destruction because they are without dependence, like being without grasped objects, and also like true thusness. By this principle, his objection fails to stand, and since the objection does not stand, the doubt in question is resolved.
