法華論疏 3.217

3.217

如來說言不離我身是無上義者，佛於一切人中最為無上，故判無上唯在於佛。而言不離我身者，謂不離法身最是無上。問：何因緣故忽此此語來？答：因上同不同義故生。今明三乘同有法身，昔明三乘不同法身，因於此語故明同有法身便是無上。若前門中不明同有法身，便非無上也。

As for "the Tathāgata says that not departing from my person is the peerless meaning," the Buddha is the most supreme among all persons; therefore, peerlessness is determined to reside only in the Buddha. As for saying "not departing from my person," it means that not departing from the dharmakāya is the most supreme. Question: For what reason does this statement suddenly appear? Answer: It arises because of the preceding meanings of sameness and non-sameness. Now it is explained that the three vehicles equally possess the dharmakāya, whereas formerly it was explained that the three vehicles did not share the dharmakāya; because of these words, it is made clear that equally possessing the dharmakāya is precisely peerless. If in the previous section it had not been explained that they equally possess the dharmakāya, it would not be peerless.
