1.122

次總別無定,一切皆總皆別。若當涅槃總三德別,有時三德總涅槃別,一切皆是般若,皆是解脫,有涅槃成祕藏。如《四相品》說,涅槃為別也。《大品》云攝一切善法入般若,是般若為總也。然今因涅槃總別,則議涅槃別總必具此二義,若偏取一義,則未識涅槃通意也。

Next, general and specific are not fixed; everything is general and everything is specific. When nirvāṇa is the general, the three virtues are the specific; at other times the three virtues are the general and nirvāṇa is the specific. Everything is prajñā, everything is liberation, and having nirvāṇa constitutes the secret store. As explained in the 'Four Characteristics Chapter', nirvāṇa is the specific. The *Dapin* says that all wholesome dharmas are gathered into prajñā; this is prajñā being the general. However, now, taking nirvāṇa as general and specific, when discussing nirvāṇa as specific and general it must possess these two meanings. If one one-sidedly grasps a single meaning, one has not yet understood the comprehensive intention of nirvāṇa.
