大方廣圓覺修多羅了義經略疏 1.565

1.565

The above prevented the fault of non-cultivation; having already known that one must definitely cultivate, he therefore asks about the gateway of remedies: how can one forever leave all illusions? The Śāstra states: “If one only contemplates tathatā without perfuming and cultivating through various expedient means, one will never attain purity.” In contrast to temporary departure, it says "forever leave," meaning that when initially contemplating the single substance, although one feels it is entirely true, later when meeting the eight winds, delusions arise tumultuously; practice is like the poor son, and understanding is like a flash of lightning. By what Dharma should one cultivate and cure so as to permanently eradicate the root of the affliction? However, where the sūtra says "for all sentient beings what expedient means should be used," between the two phrases the grammatical sense is disjointed, having been translated too tersely; words such as "discriminate and expound" should be added, and the meaning would be continuous. Those who understand should examine this carefully; it is frequently like this hereafter.
