此引昔權以明今實也。我常方便說一切法無有我性，故說無我，非是無有陰界入法之自性也。欲比法身與陰界入合，無有陰界入生死自性，非無法身常住自性，故云如來句義應知亦然。故《地持經》中明二法性：一事法性，性差別故；二實法性，性真實故。此陰界入諸法自性，即事法性也；如來法身常住自性，即實法性也。

> This cites past provisional teachings to illuminate the present ultimate truth. I previously taught as an expedient that all phenomena have no nature of an ātman, and thus taught non-self; it was not that the phenomena of the skandhas, dhātus, and āyatanas lack their own nature. Wishing to draw an analogy to the Dharmakāya being conjoined with the skandhas, dhātus, and āyatanas—having no intrinsic nature of saṃsāric skandhas, dhātus, and āyatanas, yet not lacking the eternally abiding intrinsic nature of the Dharmakāya—it therefore states: 'the semantic expressions of the Tathāgata should be known to be likewise.' Hence, the \*Bodhisattvabhūmi Sūtra\* (\*Dichi jing\*) explains two dharma-natures: first, the phenomenal dharma-nature, because its nature involves differentiation; second, the real dharma-nature, because its nature is genuine reality. The intrinsic nature of these phenomena of the skandhas, dhātus, and āyatanas is the phenomenal dharma-nature; the eternally abiding intrinsic nature of the Tathāgata's Dharmakāya is the real dharma-nature.
