大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 32.12

32.12

Regarding the commentary's "Furthermore, non-emptiness and existence being non-dual constitute one illusory existence": the preceding pair was the self-combination of emptiness and existence; this next pair is the interlacing and combining of the four meanings of emptiness and existence. Now this third one takes the meaning of non-emptiness on true emptiness and the meaning of existence on illusory existence, these two meanings according with each other to illuminate their non-duality. However, on non-emptiness it takes the meaning of being identical with existence, and on existence it takes the meaning of precluding annihilationism; hence they jointly constitute illusory existence, which is the Middle Way of non-emptiness and non-non-existence, where preservation and annihilation are unobstructed.
