案僧亮曰：《涅槃經》說性如是，不讀則不見也。僧宗曰：第八更寄譬顯非內非外之理也。煩惱䨱故非內，惑盡則見故非外也。寶亮曰：第三翻，遣執。凡欲學者，莫承聲而著。若聞色是佛性，不得言唯色是而心非；復聞四陰是佛性，亦不得言唯心是而色非。但聖人說法，隨時逐物所須，豈可定執耶？

> Sengliang comments: The Nirvāṇa Sūtra describes the nature in this way; if one does not read it, one will not see it. Sengzong comments: The eighth again resorts to an analogy to reveal the principle of being neither internal nor external. Because it is covered by defilements, it is not internal; because it is seen when delusions are exhausted, it is not external. Baoliang comments: The third turn eliminates attachments. All who wish to study should not attach to literal sounds. If one hears that form is the buddhadhātu, one must not say that only form is and mind is not; if one again hears that the four aggregates are the buddhadhātu, one must not say that only mind is and form is not. But the sage expounds the Dharma according to the times and following what beings need; how could one cling fixedly?
