二諦義 2.22

2.22

問：何故作如此說耶？解云：對彼自性，明今因緣。因緣動彼自性之執。故經云「前以定動，後以智拔。」今前明因緣動彼性執，後當拔之也。但今一往且明因緣動彼自性。彼明浮虛定俗義、真實定真義。為是故，今動搖已，明俗是真義、真是俗義也。

Question: Why do you speak like this? Explanation: In contrast to their intrinsic nature, our causes and conditions are clarified. Causes and conditions shake their attachment to intrinsic nature. Therefore, the sūtra says: "First, shake with concentration; later, uproot with wisdom." Now, first, clarifying causes and conditions shakes their attachment to [intrinsic] nature; later, it will uproot it. But now, for the time being, clarifying causes and conditions shakes their intrinsic nature. They clarify insubstantiality as determinately the meaning of conventional, and reality as determinately the meaning of ultimate. For this reason, now having shaken them, it is clarified that conventional is the meaning of ultimate, and ultimate is the meaning of conventional.
