大乘義章 3.40

3.40

第五門中辨其同異。同異之義，如《大智論》說。所言同者，如彼中說六因之義，相同《毘曇》更無差別。所言異者，小乘法中隨相定執，不知此等幻化緣起。菩薩了知如幻如化、如水中月、明鏡中像等，畢竟無有一法別守自性。雖無定性，因緣不無。此即是其同異之相。六因之義，略辨如是。

In the fifth section, similarities and differences are distinguished. The meaning of similarity and difference is as taught in the *Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa*. As for similarity: the meaning of the six causes as taught therein is the same as in the *Abhidharma*, without any difference. As for difference: in the Hīnayāna Dharma they grasp [them] definitely according to their characteristics, not knowing this dependent arising like an illusion or magical creation. Bodhisattvas thoroughly realize that [dharmas] are like illusions, like magical creations, like the moon in the water, like an image in a clear mirror, and so forth, and that ultimately not a single dharma maintains its own distinct self-nature. Although they lack fixed nature, causes and conditions are not non-existent. This is their aspect of similarity and difference. The meaning of the six causes is briefly distinguished in this way.
