3.137

是天是人之定報，豈能應天應人而現形？正由非天非人，所以能應天人有體方用。

Being a deva or being a human is a fixed retribution; how could one respond to devas and respond to humans by manifesting form? It is precisely because of being neither deva nor human that he can respond to devas and humans; only where there is substance can there be function.
