大般涅槃經義記 6.245

6.245

文中有四：一汎明一切無義不同，或有全無名之為無，或非、或少、或隱名無；二「雖言少法名為無」下就前無中明其少無，實非無法；三「願王留」下就人分別，明一切生皆有往業，說言無罪，少故名無；四「若使」下明其先王自有罪業，故殺無罪。

Within this text there are four points: first, broadly explaining that all the meanings of "non-existence" are not the same: some have total non-existence, which is called "non-existence"; or non-identity, or paucity, or concealment, which are called "non-existence"; second, from "Although one speaks of a few dharmas as 'non-existent'..." downwards, regarding the aforementioned non-existences, he clarifies the non-existence of paucity, which is not truly the absence of dharmas; third, from "May the king pay attention..." downwards, distinguishing with respect to persons, he clarifies that all living beings have past karma, and when one says there is no crime, it is called "non-existent" because it is little; fourth, from "If..." downwards, he explains that the former king inherently had sinful karma, hence killing him was without guilt.
