金光明最勝王經疏 4.40

4.40

The specific resolution below has three parts: first, in terms of bodhi. The *Mañjuśrī-paripṛcchā-bodhicitta-sūtra* says: "Bodhi has merely a name; it is spoken of conventionally." The treatise explains: manifesting dharmas that can be realized, it has merely nominal function through false discrimination, for its essence lacks reality. This means that what is realized is merely a nominal designation, hence it says "conventionally." If one grasps it according to the name, that is false discrimination, and its essence lacks reality. The designating name is provisional, and that which is designated is likewise. The above is clarified in terms of dharmas.
