二諦義 3.2

3.2

次明二諦相即義第三。然此義橫無不多條緒，竪入極自深玄。今且略出三處經文，明二諦相即義。一者即向所引《涅槃經》世諦即第一義。二者《大品經》空即色、色即空，離空無色、離色無空。三者《淨名經》色性自空，非色滅空。然此三經文雖異，意同也。

Next, the third section clarifies the meaning of the mutual identity of the two truths. Now, horizontally, this meaning has no shortage of diverse threads, and vertically, it penetrates into the utmost profound and abstruse. For now, we shall briefly cite passages from three sūtras to clarify the meaning of the mutual identity of the two truths. First is the passage just cited from the Mahāparinirvāṇa Sūtra: conventional truth is identical to the ultimate truth. Second is the Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā Prajñāpāramitā: emptiness is identical to form, form is identical to emptiness; apart from emptiness there is no form, apart from form there is no emptiness. Third is the Vimalakīrtinirdeśa Sūtra: the nature of form is inherently empty, it is not that emptiness arises from the cessation of form. Now, although the phrasing of these three sūtras differs, their intent is the same.
