肇論新疏 3.312

3.312

緣起，謂十二因緣。津，謂渡處，渡已名濟。四諦可知。若緣若諦，隨一法門三人同稟，通教意也。所稟法門無殊，隨其機宜但成自乘菩提，亦《婆沙》之意。《涅槃》略云：「十二緣生，下智觀者得聲聞道」等。見諦之理名曰中的，行相皆多，如《婆沙》說。絕偽者，斷惑也。即真者，證理也。同升無為者，明所趣非異。然其下，明能趣有殊。後句，即《論語》云：「射不主皮，為力不同科。」以法對喻，昭然可知。

“Dependent origination” refers to the twelve links of dependent origination. “Ford” refers to the crossing-place; once crossed, it is called ferried across. The four noble truths are easily understood. Whether conditions or truths, that any single Dharma-gate is received in common by the three types of persons is the purport of the Shared Teaching. That the Dharma-gate received is without difference, yet according with their capacities they merely accomplish the bodhi of their own vehicle, is also the purport of the Vibhāṣā. The Mahāparinirvāṇa-sūtra briefly says: “Contemplating the twelvefold dependent origination with lesser wisdom, one attains the śrāvaka path,” and so forth. Beholding the principle of the truths is called “hitting the target”; the aspects of practice are all manifold, as explained in the Vibhāṣā. “Abandoning falsity” means severing delusions. “Approaching truth” means realizing the principle. “Together ascending to the unconditioned” clarifies that that toward which they proceed is not different. From “yet that” onward clarifies that those who proceed have distinctions. The last sentence draws from the Analects: “In archery, hitting the leather is not the principal matter, because people's strength is not of the same degree.” Comparing the Dharma to the metaphor, it is clearly evident.
