大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 10.7

10.7

Regarding the Commentary's passage from "Therefore, this perfect teaching..." onward: it concludes with the classification of what is subsumed. Within this there are three: first, generally revealing the profound and vast; next, from "The One Vehicle has two..." onward, separately explaining the profound meaning; afterwards, resolving objections. In the second, the phrase "shared teaching" means that although the two teachings—final and sudden—speak of one nature and one characteristic, having neither two nor three, they do not explain the perfect fusion endowed with virtues and phenomenon and phenomenon unobstructed, and therefore they are not the distinct teaching. Yet within the distinct teaching there are one nature and one characteristic, principle and phenomena unobstructed, and words and thoughts being severed, identical to those two teachings.
