起信論疏筆削記 10.9

### [10.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.10.9)

《淨名》下，三、重證。不生等者，意云：無常之法必無自性，以無性故，即不生滅。此與《楞伽》文異義同。七識等者，亦即流轉無性，四相無念義，故《圓覺》云：知是空華，即無流轉，亦無身心受彼生死。《楞伽》正文云：五識身不流轉。今云七識，疏筆誤爾。如來藏等者，以有實體不可泯故，故生滅處即如來藏。《楞嚴》云：生滅去來，本如來藏妙真如性。

> 'The Vimalakīrti-nirdeśa…' is the third: re-confirming the proof. 'Unarisen…' means: impermanent dharmas must lack intrinsic nature; because they lack nature, they are neither arising nor ceasing. This differs in wording from the Laṅkāvatāra-sūtra, but the meaning is identical. 'The seven consciousnesses…' also refers to the meaning that transmigration lacks nature and the four marks are free from thought. Therefore the Yuanjue jing says: 'Knowing they are sky-flowers, there is no transmigration, nor are there body and mind undergoing that saṃsāra.' The original text of the Laṅkāvatāra-sūtra says: 'The collection of the five consciousnesses does not transmigrate.' It now says 'seven consciousnesses' merely due to a slip of the commentator's pen. 'The tathāgatagarbha…': because it has a real substance that cannot be obliterated, the locus of arising and ceasing is itself the tathāgatagarbha. The Śūraṅgama-sūtra says: 'Arising, ceasing, departing, and coming are fundamentally the wonderful tathatā-nature of the tathāgatagarbha.'
