金光明經文句記 1.75

1.75

二、「賢阿」下，通教。觀既體法，顯二種空，謂但不但。鈍根菩薩同二乘人唯見但空，無中實故，非色心本。故佛元由誓無殘習，幻出身智終歸灰滅，色有分齊故云丈六。若利菩薩，受別圓接解不但空，空是本覺中實之體，是妙色心佛位證得，所有身智稱體無邊，故名尊特尊崇奇特，亦名報身。秖一佛身，由利鈍機見二種狀，故云合身。通教佛身須作此辯。應了鈍根見佛，縱高十里乃至百億，以依但空，亦非尊特，有分齊故。若利人見丈六八尺，既依中道亦無分齊，是故下文金龍尊王偈讚三十二相，《文句》解云正歎尊特。

Second, from "Worthy Ā[nanda]" down, the Shared Teaching. Since its contemplation realizes [emptiness through] dharmas, it reveals two kinds of emptiness, called "mere [emptiness]" and "not-mere [emptiness]." Bodhisattvas of dull capacity, together with the persons of the two vehicles, see only mere emptiness; lacking the reality of the Middle, it is not the source of form and mind. Therefore, the Buddha originally made a vow to have no residual habit-energies, and his manifested body and wisdom ultimately revert to ashes and extinction; because form has determinate limits, it is called the sixteen-foot [body]. If it is a bodhisattva of sharp capacity, who receives the integration of the Distinct and Perfect teachings and understands not-mere emptiness, emptiness is the essence of original enlightenment and the Middle reality; it is wondrous form and mind attained at the Buddha stage, and all of his bodies and wisdom match the essence and are boundless, hence named the "revered and extraordinary," meaning honored and uniquely wondrous, and also called the reward body. It is just one Buddha body, but because of sharp and dull capacities two kinds of appearance are seen, hence it is called the "conjoined body." The Buddha body of the Shared Teaching must be distinguished in this way. One should realize that when one of dull capacity sees the Buddha, even if he were ten li or even a hundred billion [li] high, because it relies on mere emptiness, it is still not the revered and extraordinary body, since it has determinate limits. If a person of sharp capacity sees a body of sixteen feet or eight feet, since it relies on the Middle Way, it also lacks determinate limits; therefore, in the verse below praising the thirty-two marks of King Suvarṇaprabhāsa, the *Textual Commentary* explains that it properly praises the revered and extraordinary [body].
