維摩經略疏 4.50

4.50

問：生空何得入中？答：《大品》明一切法趣我見等，《大經》明眾生佛性不即六法不離六法，此明六十二見是如來種。今言法者，即無明心具一切法，故下文云「心垢故眾生垢，心淨故眾生淨。」《華嚴》云「心如工畫師，造種種五陰。一切世間中，無不從心造。」約此以明一切法也。

Question: How can the emptiness of sentient beings enter the Middle? Answer: The Dàpǐn explains that all dharmas tend toward the view of self, and so forth; the Mahāparinirvāṇa Sūtra explains that the buddha-nature of sentient beings is neither identical with nor separate from the six dharmas; this explains that the sixty-two views are the seed of the Tathāgata. When speaking of "dharmas" here, the mind of ignorance fully possesses all dharmas; hence the text below states: "Because the mind is defiled, sentient beings are defiled; because the mind is pure, sentient beings are pure." The Avataṃsaka states: "The mind is like a skilled painter, creating the various five aggregates; within all worlds, there is nothing not created by the mind." It is in reference to this that all dharmas are explained.
