金光明經文句記 5.103

5.103

二、「又淨」下，引文證。因感出世，由生成佛，人皆共知，四教悉爾。今從圓說，始窮經意，良以自他性本不二，方有能感及有能資。因感出世者，即十界機感。十界應也，以生地獄與佛地獄性不二故，方能感見地獄之應，乃至感佛亦復如是。今宗所論感應皆具十法界者，為顯不二。義若不然，豈惟眾生不能感佛，抑亦十處不成法界。宜深究之，宜深究之。由生成佛者，眾生能作成佛勝緣也。若順若違，並資佛行。而惡逆者其功最強，如無達多，佛豈成道？然若惡法本非佛性，何能資助菩薩成佛？菩薩不觀生為法界，非同體悲、非無作行，何能成就大菩提果？若其佛外有一眾生，非佛法界；生外有佛，法界不成。不作此解，未超三藏，何況通別？

Second, from "Also the pure..." onward, citing texts as proof. Appearing in the world due to stimuli and attaining Buddhahood by means of living beings are universally known to all, being the same in all four teachings. Now, explaining from the Perfect [teaching], one begins to exhaust the meaning of the sūtra: precisely because the natures of self and other are inherently non-dual, there can be that which can stimulate and that which can assist. Appearing in the world due to stimuli refers to the capacities of the ten realms stimulating the responses of the ten realms; because the nature of the hell beings and the nature of the Buddha's hell are non-dual, they are then able to stimulate and see the response of hell, and so forth up to stimulating the Buddha, which is also like this. In the discussion of stimulus and response in our school, all possessing the ten Dharma realms is to reveal non-duality. If the meaning were not so, not only could sentient beings not stimulate the Buddha, but also the ten places would not constitute the Dharma realm. One should deeply investigate this; one should deeply investigate this. Attaining Buddhahood by means of living beings means that sentient beings can create supreme conditions for attaining Buddhahood. Whether conforming or opposing, they all assist the Buddha's practice. Yet those who commit evil and rebel have the greatest efficacy: without Devadatta, how could the Buddha have attained the Way? But if evil dharmas were fundamentally not the Buddha-nature, how could they assist the bodhisattva in attaining Buddhahood? If the bodhisattva did not contemplate living beings as the Dharma realm, without the compassion of identical substance and without unconditioned practice, how could he accomplish the fruit of great bodhi? If outside the Buddha there were a single sentient being, it would not be the Buddha's Dharma realm; if outside sentient beings there were a Buddha, the Dharma realm would not be established. Without making this interpretation, one has not surpassed the Three Piṭakas, let alone the Shared and Distinct [teachings].
