大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 63.72

63.72

Regarding the commentary's "third, explaining the shared and specific in contrast with real dharmas," the four gates—six, seven, eight, and nine—are exclusively specific, because each concerns only one truth. In relation to the preceding five gates, the tenth gate is termed specific, because it contemplates only the two truths of cessation and the path; but in relation to the sixth through ninth, which contemplate only a single truth, it is also termed shared. As for "Master Huiyuan stating that the latter five are also shared," how are they termed shared and specific? What is contemplated shares across the four, but what is accomplished is only one, so it can also be termed specific. Regarding the commentary's "Now, first, the ten lines in the Yogācāra do not manifest the literal expressions," this refers to the aforementioned Vihāra Chapter. The treatise says: "All literal expressions are as stated in the sūtra; it merely grasps the sūtra's meaning." The doctrine it establishes resembles the explanation of the present treatise, differing only slightly; hence it is cited separately. Regarding the commentary's "the text has three clauses," that text first fully enumerates the names of the three clauses: first, "stated for this"; second, "stated through this"; third, "stated like this," which the subcommentary fully distinguishes below. Regarding the commentary's "may be known in sequence," this corresponds in sequence to the order of the four truths—suffering, origin, cessation, and the path—which are precisely the sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth in the present sūtra.
