華嚴經探玄記 5.65

5.65

九僧中，一約位求僧，謂四向四果以同證無我，和合者誰？故無僧也；二約德用求，謂三明六通；三約根求，謂鈍根羅漢假託時處方得解脫名時脫，利根反此名非時脫。

Ninth, in the Saṃgha: 1. seeking the Saṃgha with reference to stages refers to the four directions and four fruits, since they identically realize selflessness, who is it that harmonizes? Hence there is no Saṃgha; 2. seeking with reference to virtuous functions refers to the three knowledges and six supernormal faculties; 3. seeking with reference to faculties refers to dull-rooted arhats who must rely on time and place to attain liberation, called "timely liberation," while sharp-rooted ones are the opposite, called "non-timely liberation."
