維摩經略疏垂裕記 5.54

5.54

二、念佛垂旨。「三種緣集」者，荊溪云：二種緣集加法界集，〈方便品〉前皆但立二。〈方便品〉初便依攝師立法界集者，為欲消品消文便故。若不爾者，弟子菩薩但共為一無為緣集，大小則濫，故更順古離為三種。若爾，何以破他？答：名同義異，已如前說。

Second, reflecting on the Buddha conveying his intention. Regarding the "three kinds of conditioned assembly": Jingxi says that adding the dharmadhātu assembly to the two kinds of conditioned assembly—prior to the "Expedient Means" chapter only two were ever established. Establishing the dharmadhātu assembly at the beginning of the "Expedient Means" chapter according to the Master of the Compendium was for the convenience of explaining the chapter and text. If not so, disciples and bodhisattvas would share only a single unconditioned conditioned assembly, and the great and small would be conflated; hence, following the ancients, it was further divided into three kinds. If so, why refute others? Answer: The names are the same but the meanings differ, as explained previously.
