二諦義 3.18

3.18

問：若為初發心即並觀耶？解云：初發心即學二諦。無有菩薩不學二諦者，凡是菩薩即學二諦觀。為是故初發心即學二諦竝觀，乃至後心亦學二諦並觀，而不無明晦為異。晦故為初心、明故為後心，此明晦判前後，非是並不並而判前後也。

Question: How is there simultaneous contemplation right from the initial aspiration? Explanation: Upon initially aspiring, one learns the two truths. There is no bodhisattva who does not learn the two truths; anyone who is a bodhisattva learns the contemplation of the two truths. For this reason, right from the initial aspiration one learns the simultaneous contemplation of the two truths, and all the way to the final mind one also learns the simultaneous contemplation of the two truths, though not without the difference of dimness and clarity. Because of dimness, it is the initial mind; because of clarity, it is the final mind. This dimness and clarity distinguish earlier and later, not whether one is simultaneous or non-simultaneous.
