涅槃經遊意 1.9

1.9

此經之意復何窮？如：河西五門、波藪七分、興皇八章，迦葉三十解問，如來次第解釋則三十解意。今直舉其樞要，陳其綱領，可然。

How could the meaning of this scripture ever be exhausted? For example, the five gateways of Hexi, the seven divisions of Posou, the eight sections of Xinghuang, the thirty questions of understanding by Kāśyapa, and the Tathāgata's sequential explanations amounting to thirty intentions of understanding. Now, if we directly present its crucial essentials and set forth its main guidelines, that will suffice.
