首楞嚴義疏注經 4.49

4.49

The upper phrase concludes the real; the lower phrase concludes the false. Nature-awakening necessarily possesses true brightness; hence it is said: 'Nature-awakening is wondrously bright, fundamental awakening is brightly wondrous.' Falsely one considers brightness to be distinct from awakening; therefore you say: 'If there is no object of brightening, then there is no brightening awakening,' because only when there is an object of brightening is it called awakening-brightness. From this, the views of understanding and confusion can be distinguished.
