2.9
譬如下,引喻結顯。泥聚一也,本無定器,陶家以作工方便故成種種器,喻法無我亦一也,本無定名,以智慧方便說種種名,如前空、無相至涅槃等是也。故結云「或說如來藏、或說無我。」名雖不同,義則是一,蓋開引著我外道說如來藏,本令離著,入三脫門,成等正覺,豈同外道神我之見邪?三解脫者,性淨解脫、圓淨解脫、方便淨解脫也。
From 'Just as…' onward, he cites an analogy to conclude and clarify. The lump of clay is one and has no fixed vessel fundamentally; the potter, through the skillful means of craft, makes various vessels. This illustrates that the selflessness of dharmas is also one and fundamentally has no fixed names; through wisdom and skillful means, various names are spoken, as mentioned before from emptiness, signlessness, up to nirvāṇa. Hence he concludes: 'he speaks either of the tathāgatagarbha or of selflessness.' Although the names are different, the meaning is one. He guides and attracts the tīrthikas who cling to a self by speaking of the tathāgatagarbha, originally to cause them to abandon clinging, enter the three gates of liberation, and realize equal and perfect enlightenment; how could this be identical to the tīrthikas' view of a spiritual self? The three liberations are: the liberation of natural purity, the liberation of complete purity, and the liberation of skillful purity.
