金光明經文句記 4.59

4.59

Second, from 'it is also' downward, he accomplishes the three aspects. Repentance and praise are the function, as explained above. Guiding the completion of the principle refers to the causes of the myriad practices. Only through non-attainment does one realize the three bodies; if it were not ultimate emptiness, how could there be non-attainment? Therefore, perfect emptiness guides the myriad practices to complete the principle of the virtues of fruition. Guiding the completion of the substance refers to the deep and vast Dharma-nature pervading all dharmas. Due to the two kinds of self, birth-and-death is vast and unending; now, using the two kinds of emptiness to guide all dharmas, he reveals and completes the substance of the sūtra.
