維摩經略疏 1.67

1.67

問：理無二是，何得有四？答：諸法畢竟無說，非權非實，尚無一種，何況有四。而權而實者，權故說三，實故說一，權實備明則有四種。

Question: In principle there are not two rights; how can there be four?
Answer: All phenomena are ultimately beyond preaching, neither expedient nor real; there is not even a single kind, let alone four. Yet as expedient and real: because of the expedient, three are spoken; because of the real, one is spoken. When expedient and real are fully elucidated, then there are four kinds.
