華嚴經探玄記 6.33

6.33

一辨體性，有三：一約隨相，亦三：一以無貪善根、二彼俱思、三兼取三業無表。假實通論此三為性，此約初教。二約性，或以真如為性故，《起信論》云「知法性體無慳貪，隨順修行檀波羅蜜。」此顯順同法性之中無貪之功德故也，此約終教。三約實，準下文於施門中所攝無盡圓融法界為性，此約圓教。

1. Distinguishing the essential nature, which has three aspects: First, in terms of conforming to phenomena, which also has three: 1. Taking the root of goodness of non-greed [as its nature]; 2. The volition associated with it; 3. Concurrently including the non-informative [form] of the three karmas. Comprehensively considering both nominal and real, these three constitute its nature. This is in terms of the initial teaching. Second, in terms of the nature, it may take tathatā as its nature; thus the Treatise on Awakening of Faith says, 'Knowing that the essence of the dharmatā is free from stinginess and greed, one accords with it to practice the dānapāramitā.' This reveals the virtue of non-greed that accords with and is identical to the dharmatā. This is in terms of the final teaching. Third, in terms of reality, following the subsequent text, it takes the limitless and perfectly interpenetrating dharmadhātu subsumed within the gate of giving as its nature. This is in terms of the perfect teaching.
