大般涅槃經集解 18.105

18.105

案僧亮曰：佛若為說真我佛性者，譬求己之金藏也。法瑤曰：擬宜眾生有此理耳，不言其意也。若審知其理然後修善，如先示我而後作也。僧宗曰：常機欲發，應為菩薩，則先人而後己，如示子之金藏也。既功在後己，則除惑之義顯。取果彌疾，譬速作也。寶亮曰：夫機感小教，大機必熟，終得常樂，義言示也。道慧曰：此喻智慧也。若能顯示佛性，令得真解，乃能行行也。

Sengliang states: If the Buddha expounds the true self of the buddhadhātu for them, it is compared to seeking one's own storehouse of gold. Fayao states: This adapts to sentient beings having this principle, not stating their conscious intention. If they clearly know its principle and only then cultivate good, it is like first showing it to me and working afterward. Sengzong states: When the capacity for permanence is about to stir, one should become a bodhisattva, putting others first and oneself second, like showing the son the storehouse of gold. Since the merit lies in putting oneself second, the meaning of eliminating delusion is made apparent. Grasping the fruit becomes even swifter, compared to working quickly. Baoliang states: When capacity responds to the lesser teaching, the great capacity will surely ripen, and they will ultimately attain permanence and bliss; figuratively this is called 'showing'. Daohui states: This illustrates wisdom. If one can reveal the buddhadhātu and cause them to attain true understanding, only then can they carry out the practices.
