案道生曰：若以實為實，乃成竊耳。以不實為實，然後知非也。應詰求其實義，為索示也。僧亮曰：菩薩既去，圓教亦隱。小乘以無我為化，偏教失中，譬謗也。違化得罪，譬收也。必經斷事，譬至王所也。可以示我者，初果已斷，示相之我是其所了；今責求形色自在之相也。

Daosheng notes: "If one takes the real as real, then it becomes stealing. Taking the unreal as real, one only afterward knows it to be wrong. One should interrogate and seek its real meaning; this is asking to be shown." Sengliang notes: "The bodhisattva having departed, the complete teaching was also concealed. The Hīnayāna used selflessness as its transformation; this one-sided teaching lost the middle, compared to slander. Violating the transformation and incurring guilt is compared to being seized. Having to undergo a judgment is compared to arriving at the king's place. 'You may show it to me': the first fruition has already severed [afflictions], and the self with discernible characteristics is what they understand; now he reproaches and demands the sovereign characteristics of form and color."
