大般涅槃經義記 9.160

9.160

就下廣中文別有四：一就法舉類；二「是故隨人隨意」已下，約之顯法；三「五種眾生不應為說五種法」下，約人舉類；四「如汝所言佛涅槃」下，約之顯法。此四段中，前二一對法相不定，後二一對隨人不定。就初段中類別有三：一明諸法一異不定、二廣略不定、三淺深不定。三中初門一處辨之，後之兩門一處并舉。就初類中先開三門。言「一名法說無量名」者，顯體之名，名法不殊，名一名法。此法體中，義別眾多，隨別施名，是故得於一名法中說無量名。「於一義中說無量名」者，諸義同體互相集成，一備一切、一切成一。良以一中備一切故，隨之施名，名亦眾多，故於一義說無量名。「於無量義說無量名」者，隨其別義各施異名，故得於彼無量義中說無量名。

Within the broad explanation below, the text has four parts: first, adducing categories in terms of dharmas; second, from "Therefore in accord with the person and in accord with intention..." onward, applying them to reveal dharmas; third, from "To five kinds of sentient beings one should not speak five kinds of dharmas" downward, adducing categories in terms of persons; fourth, from "As you have said, the Buddha's nirvāṇa..." downward, applying it to reveal dharmas. In these four sections, the first two form a pair on the indeterminacy of the characteristics of dharmas, while the latter two form a pair on the indeterminacy according to persons. Within the first section, there are three kinds of categories: first, clarifying that the unity and diversity of dharmas are indeterminate; second, that breadth and brevity are indeterminate; third, that shallowness and depth are indeterminate. Among these three, the first approach is distinguished in one place, while the latter two approaches are adduced together in one place. Within the first category, he first opens three approaches. As for "In a single named dharma, speaking immeasurable names": the name that manifests the essence, where name and dharma are not distinct, is called 'a single named dharma'. Within this essence of the dharma, the distinct meanings are numerous; applying names according to the distinctions, one can therefore speak immeasurable names within a single named dharma. As for "Speaking immeasurable names within a single meaning": the various meanings share the same essence and mutually constitute one another, one possessing all, and all constituting one. Truly because one possesses all, when names are applied in accord with this, the names are also numerous; hence within a single meaning he speaks immeasurable names. As for "Speaking immeasurable names for immeasurable meanings": applying different names according to their distinct meanings, he can therefore speak immeasurable names for those immeasurable meanings.
