金光明經文句記 5.80

5.80

六、諸法本故。經「一切眾生」等者，世間，謂五戒、十善、十二門禪等。出世間者，四教法門者，三乘修證也。國事者，禮樂征伐、治世育民之事也。造世論者，如上三論及下正論等也。皆因此經者，乃教、行、理三種經也。故新本云「欲生人天、欲得四果支佛、欲得佛，皆依此經懺悔滅障方得成就。」若探取化意，即是於一佛乘分別說三。但以此經部在方等教，猶屬通理，就人分未免異趣故。欲令等言，隨其五乘而得安樂也。

Sixth, because it is the root of all dharmas. In the sūtra, "all sentient beings" and so forth: worldly matters refer to the five precepts, ten virtues, twelve dhyānas, and so on. Transmundane matters refer to the dharma gates of the four teachings, namely the cultivation and realization of the three vehicles. State affairs refer to ritual, music, military campaigns, governing the world, and nurturing the people. Composing worldly treatises refers to treatises such as the three above and the treatises on correct governance below. "All relying on this sūtra" means the three kinds of sūtras: teaching, practice, and principle. Thus, the new translation says: "Desiring to be born among humans or devas, desiring to attain the four fruits or pratyekabuddhahood, or desiring to attain buddhahood, all must rely on this sūtra to repent and eradicate obstacles so as to achieve accomplishment." If we fathom the intention of transformation, it is precisely expounding three distinct vehicles within the One Buddha Vehicle. However, because this sūtra belongs to the Vaipulya teaching, it still pertains to the shared principle; categorized according to persons, different destinies are not yet avoided. Therefore, saying "wishing to cause..." means obtaining peace and joy in accordance with their five vehicles.
