大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 44.36

44.36

In the "Seventh: Section of Restatement in Verse," within the two verses of the sixth line, the first verse restates the preceding correct analysis of the three truths; the first half of the following verse restates the arising of compassion based on wisdom, while the second half restates benefiting beings through the perfection of practice. However, both contrast existence and non-existence, possessing the meaning of the three truths. Formerly, commentators took the first half as preparatory application, the next half as the fundamental, and the latter verse as the subsequently attained; yet, adopting the text of the Mahāyānasaṃgraha, that treatise relies on the six pāramitās and does not seem to match the teaching. If one also directly clarifies the doctrinal principles, it can be harmonized with the preceding text. Since it relies on the Benye, the present verse cannot record the old [interpretation].
