大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 61.65

61.65

Under the Commentary's "Why not attend? Because of seeing selflessness," this is the treatise explaining the words 'not attending'. It means that form lacks its own substantiality and is empty in its very essence; hence it is called selfless, which is the selflessness of dharmas (dharmanairātmya). From "In terms of the bodhisattva's real antidote" onward, this is the Commentary explaining the treatise. As for saying "merely wearying of suffering and coarseness as preparatory practice," this is subduing defilements via the six aspects of the contaminated [path], meaning wearying of the lower as suffering, coarse, and a hindrance, and delighting in the higher as calm, sublime, and an escape, briefly stated as suffering and coarseness. However, regarding this antidote, although the sūtra has no explicit text, the treatise master adopted the sense of 'not attending' to explain it.
