大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 6.36

6.36

Regarding the commentary's "If one says that the third period is solely named deprecation and praise..." and so forth, this refutes the third period. The text has two parts: first, a dual presentation; and second, from "The Vimalakīrtinirdeśa says..." onward, a dual refutation. First, refuting the claim that the third period did not explain the meaning of permanence is clear. Second, from "The Prajñā[pāramitā] also says..." onward, it refutes the claim that [the third period] uniquely holds the designation of deprecation and praise, because the second period also deprecated and praised: the two vehicles being like fireflies was the deprecation; the bodhisattvas being like the sun was the praise.
