大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 32.38

32.38

Regarding the Commentary's 'Answering the third objection': this refers to the objection above: if the single nature accords with the various kinds, the ultimate truth is lost; if the various kinds accord with the single nature, the conventional truth is lost; also, nature and characteristics would contradict each other. The present answer intends to clarify that nature and characteristics do not contradict each other. However, the Commentary has two meanings: first, clarifying that nature and characteristics are both eliminated, so there is nothing that could contradict, which is the meaning of the second half.
