### [8.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.8.17)

疏「若謂佛性有二」下，第七遮救無性。於中二：先牒救辭、後辯差當。今初。彼《法華疏》云「然性有二種：一者理性，《勝鬘》所說如來藏是。二者行性，《楞伽》所說如來藏是。前性皆有，後性或無。」故今許云「斯言可爾」。「故涅槃云」下，引經為證。

> The Commentary states: "If one maintains that Buddha-nature is twofold..." and below; this is the seventh part, blocking the defense of having no nature. Within this, there are two parts: first, citing their defense, and second, discerning its validity. As for the first: That commentary on the Lotus \[Sūtra\] says: "However, nature is of two kinds: first, the nature of principle, which is the tathāgatagarbha expounded in the Śrīmālā\[devī-sūtra\]; second, the nature of practice, which is the tathāgatagarbha expounded in the Laṅkā\[vatāra-sūtra\]. All possess the former nature, whereas some may lack the latter nature." Therefore, the text now concedes: "These words are acceptable." The phrase "Hence the Nirvāṇa says..." and below cites the sūtra as proof.
