大般涅槃經義記 4.49

4.49

第二段中，「是乳雖從草、血而出不得言二」正明無二，草血出乳是其別異，辨異兼一是以言「雖」，轉前作後是故不得一向定二。「唯得」已下釋成無二，唯從草、血因緣生乳，非餘處來，是故不得一向定二。「酪至」已下以初類後，「以是義」下結成無二。以是乳等從前生後，性無別故同名牛味，牛味同故名為無二。

In the second section, 'although this milk emerges from grass and blood, it cannot be called two' properly explains non-duality. That grass and blood produce milk is their difference; to distinguish the difference while including the oneness, it therefore says 'although'. The preceding is transformed into the succeeding, and therefore it cannot be categorically fixed as two. From 'it can only' downward, it explains and completes the non-duality: it is only from the conditions of grass and blood that milk is produced, and not from anywhere else; therefore it cannot be categorically fixed as two. From 'cheese up to' downward, it infers the subsequent by the initial; from 'for this reason' downward, it concludes the non-duality. Because these such as milk are produced subsequent from prior, and their nature is without distinction, they are jointly named bovine flavour; because the bovine flavour is identical, it is called non-dual.
