大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 61.99

61.99

疏「他人陵我以剛強」等者，即借《老子》之言。彼云「柔弱勝剛強」，又云「天下之至柔，馳騁天下之至堅」，例而用之耳。

Regarding the commentary's 'Others insulting me with rigidity and unyieldingness,' and so forth, this borrows the words of Laozi. He says: 'The soft and weak overcomes the rigid and strong,' and further says: 'The most yielding beneath heaven gallops through the most firm beneath heaven'; it is merely used as an analogy.
