大乘法苑義林章 6.6

6.6

As for the one vehicle, the Śrīmālādevī-sūtra says: "When the Dharma of the path of the one vehicle is taught, the ultimate Dharmakāya is attained. Beyond this, there is no further teaching of the Dharma of the one vehicle. For the assembly of the three vehicles, taking refuge is attended by fear; it is not the ultimate refuge." The Xianyang shengjiao lun says: "The Sugata who well taught the wondrous three bodies, / The teaching and realization of the Dharma, fearless and uncontaminated, / And the supreme vehicle, the true sons of the Sage— / I now first praise in meditation with utmost sincerity." The Buddhabhūmi-sūtra-śāstra says: "I bow my head to the unsurpassed, excellent field of merit: / The three bodies, the two truths, and the assembly of the one vehicle." The Lotus Sūtra also says: "In the Buddha lands of the ten directions, / There is only the Dharma of the one vehicle," and so forth.
