大般涅槃經集解 57.28

57.28

案僧亮曰：二手合時更無異法而來合者，合一是果，手二是因，而離手無合也；名色眾生亦爾。寶亮曰：若名色異，眾生者可得言縛；今名色與縛一體，如眼不自見，云何名色繫縛名色耶？佛答：以二手共合，更無別合法，即手為合，故即名色為縛也。

Sengliang comments: When the two hands join together, no other dharma comes to join them: joining as one is the effect, the two hands are the cause, and apart from the hands there is no joining; name-and-form and sentient beings are also like this. Baoliang says: If name-and-form were different from sentient beings, one could say they bind; now name-and-form and bondage are one substance, just as the eye does not see itself—how can name-and-form bind name-and-form? The Buddha answers: because the two hands join together, there is no separate dharma of joining; the hands themselves are the joining; therefore, name-and-form itself is the bondage.
