8.217

初則未亡因相,次則未亡果相;今因果二相融為一體,故云心佛二同。因果既亡,二邊不立,故云善得中道。此中道體將證不久,故云非懷。然猶未亡中道之相,故云非出。此約顯理以明也。

First, the causal characteristic was not yet eliminated; next, the fruition characteristic was not yet eliminated. Now the two characteristics of cause and fruit blend into a single substance; hence it says "mind and Buddha being identical." With cause and fruit both eliminated, the two extremes do not stand; hence it says "skillfully attaining the Middle Way." The substance of this Middle Way will be realized before long; hence it says "neither holding it in." Yet one has not yet eliminated the characteristic of the Middle Way; hence it says "nor letting it out." This is explained in terms of revealing the principle.
