- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [62.29](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.62.29)

疏「涅槃云」下，四引《涅槃》，即第二十九經，南本二十七。「佛言：『善男子！眾生佛性不一不二，諸佛平等猶如虛空，一切眾生同共有之。若有能修八聖道者，當知是人即得明見佛性。善男子！雪山有草，名曰忍辱，牛若食之則成醍醐。眾生佛性亦復如是。』」釋曰：斯為正義。下師子吼牒難亦云：「如佛所說：若有修習八聖道者，則見佛性。是義不然」下，難意云：道若是一，餘人無分。故佛舉平坦之路以況八正，明知八正能見佛性，即非小矣。疏中義引。

> Regarding the commentary's phrase “The \*Nirvāṇa\* says…” and so forth: fourth, it cites the \*Nirvāṇa-sūtra\*, namely the twenty-ninth fascicle \[in the Northern edition\], which is the twenty-seventh in the Southern edition: “The Buddha said: ‘Good son! Sentient beings’ buddha-nature is neither one nor two. The Buddhas are equal, just like empty space; all sentient beings share it alike. If someone is able to cultivate the eightfold noble path, you should know that this person will directly see the buddha-nature clearly. Good son! In the Snow Mountains there is a grass named “patience”; if cows eat it, it turns into ghee. Sentient beings’ buddha-nature is also just like this.’” The explanation states: This is the correct meaning. Below, Siṃhanāda, citing the objection, also says: “As the Buddha has spoken: ‘If someone cultivates the eightfold noble path, they see the buddha-nature.’ This meaning is not correct…” Below, the gist of the objection is: if the path were one, other people would have no share in it. Therefore the Buddha brought up a flat and level road to illustrate the eightfold noble \[path\], making clear that the eightfold noble \[path\] is capable of seeing the buddha-nature, which means it is not Hinayāna. It is cited according to its meaning in the commentary.
