大般涅槃經義記 8.167

### [8.167](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1764.8.167)

言「果果者」牒第四門，「即大涅槃」斥其體相。此前十二因緣家果，因緣之理顯為此果名大涅槃。向前菩提望於前因已受果名，涅槃是彼果家之果故名果果。理實菩提及與涅槃並有性淨方便之義，但今文中方便之果偏名菩提，性淨之果偏號涅槃，上下多然，性淨就體彰寂顯故。

> The words "effect-of-effect" take up the fourth gate, and "is great nirvāṇa" identifies its substantial characteristic. This is the effect belonging to the preceding twelve links of dependent origination: the principle of dependent origination is manifested as this effect, which is called great nirvāṇa. The aforementioned bodhi, viewed in relation to the preceding cause, has already received the name "effect"; nirvāṇa is the effect of that effect, and hence is called an effect-of-effect. In principle and in reality, bodhi and nirvāṇa both possess the meanings of natural purity and expedient means; yet here in the text, the effect of expedient means is specifically named bodhi, and the effect of natural purity is specifically called nirvāṇa. Throughout \[the sūtra\] it is largely thus, because natural purity manifests stillness in terms of the substance.
