二、「若言」下,引經文觀法以正答。「且佛誠說」者,《大經》中佛自解說雙林所表之意。如經「東方雙樹表常無常」等,故云皆表半滿。無常即半,常即滿也。

Second, from "If it is said..." downward, citing sūtra passages and contemplative methods to answer directly. As for "Furthermore, the Buddha's sincere explanation," in the *Great Sūtra*, the Buddha himself explained the meaning signified by the twin groves. As the sūtra says, "The twin trees in the east signify permanence and impermanence," and so forth; hence it says they all signify the half and the full. Impermanence is the half, and permanence is the full.
