大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 4.8

4.8

Regarding the Commentary's statement from "Furthermore, or it is solely defiled..." downwards: the second set of four propositions. Whichever single kṣetra is taken, there are four propositions, without discussing root and branch or defilement and purity; now it is directly discussed in terms of the four propositions regarding the defiled kṣetra of Sahā. That is, the first three are based on the deficiency and fullness of purity and defilement, and the last one is based on the disappearance of characteristics and the manifestation of principle. If explained in terms of capacity: defiled is because it is seen by inferior capacity; pure is because it is seen by superior capacity; "both" is based on the simultaneous seeing by two people, and because the essence of the kṣetra is sovereign, they are simultaneous; "neither" is based on sudden capacity, and is also solely based on the essence.
