大般涅槃經集解 53.20

53.20

Sengliang comments: This is the fourth objection. Sengzong says: The fourth objection says that by reason of the buddhadhātu one naturally attains Buddhahood, without relying on broadly preaching the twelve divisions of the canon. Baoliang says: In the fourth objection, from 'If, due to the buddhadhātu, one generates the mind of the unexcelled path' downward, it clarifies that the power of the buddhadhātu is strong and one should naturally attain Buddhahood; why is it necessary to broadly preach the twelve divisions of the canon to encourage people to practice? Below it then cites two parables to help construct the objection, using parables to illustrate that the power of the direct cause should naturally bring one to Buddhahood."
