大般涅槃經集解 36.31

36.31

Fayao states: If one does not know the meaning, one’s own path is not yet perfected; how could one benefit beings through understanding? Therefore, one urgently needs to know both the Dharma and the meaning. Baoliang states: The second has no separate essential purport. It is called “knowing the meaning” precisely because one deeply comprehends the rationale underlying these twelve names.
