大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 84.26

84.26

Under "Third: directly clarifying the entry into meditative absorption," the text of the Commentary has three parts: first, a general introduction; second, from "the term *pin shen*" downward, explaining the name; and third, from "therefore, relying on the ancient masters" downward, explaining the meaning. In the second, there are two parts: first, recounting the past, which is the idea of the *Kanding*; second, from "however, the old sūtra" downward, distinguishing compliance and contradiction. Within this, there are three parts: first, clarifying that the Chinese and Sanskrit are not of the same category, just as *sūtra*, *xiuduolu*, and *sūtra* (sudanlan), though different, share one category of phonological cadence, whereas *fenxun* (lion's stride) and *pishi* are worlds apart in linguistic cadence; second, from "Nirvāṇa [Sūtra], fascicle twenty-five" downward, citing two textual passages as evidence to clarify that it is this phrase; and third, from "merely as an antonym" downward, making a concession and citing the Sanskrit to denote the meaning of mastery.
