維摩經略疏 3.87

3.87

問：無我與空何殊？答：四句不定。一、眾生名空，陰名無我，即是內離人故空，法不自在故無我。二、陰名空，眾生名無我，陰但是法故名為空，眾生是人故名無我。三、俱名空，猶如二空。四、俱名無我，如三無我。今經前明空門，多是二空；今明無我，約法無我。

Question: How do non-self and emptiness differ? Answer: The four propositions are not fixed. First: Sentient beings are called empty, and the aggregates are called non-self; this means that internally, being devoid of a person, they are empty, and because phenomena lack autonomy, they are non-self. Second: The aggregates are called empty, and sentient beings are called non-self; the aggregates, being merely phenomena, are called empty, and sentient beings, being persons, are called non-self. Third: Both are called empty, like the two kinds of emptiness. Fourth: Both are called non-self, like the three kinds of non-self. In the present sūtra, what was clarified previously regarding the gate of emptiness mostly pertained to the two kinds of emptiness; what is clarified now regarding non-self pertains to the non-self of phenomena.
