涅槃經遊意 1.225

1.225

破第二義解：若得佛之理已自是常，則眾生身中已有常住之法，還成常見之執，非真神之法；若此理無常，則不成本有之義。

Refuting the second explanation: if the principle of attaining Buddhahood were already eternal of itself, then within the bodies of sentient beings there would already be an eternally abiding dharma, which reverts to the grasp of eternalism, not the dharma of the true spirit; if this principle were impermanent, it would not establish the meaning of original existence.
