三、約理者,理是一法,名義則多,故《大涅槃經》云「如天帝釋,有種種名」。解脫亦爾,多諸名字,名字異故,故名為「別」。同是一理,故名「通」也。從教起行,從行入理,俱有通、別也。
Third, concerning principle: the principle is a single dharma, yet its names and meanings are manifold. Hence the Mahānirvāṇa Sūtra states: "Just as the heavenly king Śakra has various names." Liberation is also like this, having many names. Because the names differ, it is called "distinctive." Because it is identically one principle, it is called "shared." From teaching one generates practice, and from practice one enters principle; all possess both the shared and the distinctive.
