華嚴經金師子章註 1.75

1.75

釋曰：今由緣生非生，方得名生，了生死性乃是無生。論云：「因不自生，緣生故。緣不自生，因生故。」然生與無生互成互奪，奪則無生，成乃緣生。由即成即奪，是故生時無生。如是了者，名達無生。

Commentary: Now, because dependent arising is non-arising, only then does it obtain the name 'arising'; understanding the nature of birth-and-death is precisely non-arising. A treatise states: 'Causes do not arise of themselves, because they arise through conditions. Conditions do not arise of themselves, because they arise through causes.' However, arising and non-arising mutually accomplish and mutually supersede each other; when superseding, there is non-arising; when accomplishing, it is dependent arising. Because it is immediately accomplishing and immediately superseding, for this reason at the time of arising there is no arising. One who understands in this manner is called one who has realized non-arising.
