金剛般若論會釋 1.16

1.16

Within the path of realization, it explains the sublime body, the great body, the attained body, and the perfected body. Attaining the ultimate fundamental transformation of the basis (āśrayaparivṛtti) is named the sublime body; the intention here is that the unconditioned dharmakāya is called the attained body, while the saṃbhogakāya and nirmāṇakāya are called the perfected body. Alternatively, the self-enjoyment body and tathatā together are named the attained body. Relying on the Suvarṇaprabhāsa-sūtra, because both are the dharmakāya, being of the nature of the capable-of-attaining and the attained, other-enjoyment and nirmāṇakāya Buddhas assume the form of a Buddha, while Buddhas that do not assume the form of a Buddha are all named the perfected body. The intention in the repeated explanation in the latter fascicle clarifies that all three bodies attained are the sublime body, which should be known when arriving there. The great body means the body that embraces the bodies of all sentient beings, as the text below says: because of attaining the five equalities, it embraces all living beings as non-different from oneself and embraces all living beings as its own essence; hence it is named the great body, because it universally delivers them. Here it should be stated: all the factors of the path and defiled factors are assigned within the two categories of the path of realization and freedom from pride; these are precisely the ten hindrances and the ten pāramitās, with the ten suchnesses omitted, merely clarifying what is capable of realization.
