大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 5.37

5.37

In the commentary, from “Below, revealing the characteristics” downwards reveals the characteristics. The text has two parts: first, referring to what was generally stated earlier, namely regulating and subduing faults and extinguishing evil, which refers to the practice of cessation, training the three karmas. Innate goodness, keeping faith, and so on apply to both cessation and application. Vinaya takes ceasing evil and performing good as its essential purport; the Vinaya school takes upholding and violating as its exclusive focus; hence cessation and application are taken together as revealing the characteristics.
