大般涅槃經集解 9.124

9.124

Daosheng comments: A subsequent Buddha appears in the world and expounds true permanence. Sengliang comments: This illustrates the birth of a subsequent Buddha. Though ordinary people seek perversely, the principle fundamentally abides permanently; the Buddhas of the three periods share the one same path. Sengzong comments: The five parables above explain that non-Buddhists stole the name of permanence without having the reality of permanence. Now it explains that the name of permanence from beginning to end returns to the Buddha. The previous application of the parables was already completed; this meaning arises here.
