法融記云:善教者,約三乘,則此生他世順益者善也,此生他世違損者惡也。於此二中無可記別者,無記也。約一乘,則只是善也。何者?謂儼師云:圓通之致處無不善,觸緣斯順不擇物而施(已上)。故知一乘唯一善耳。問:若爾,無記與惡只一善耶?答?爾也。問?爾則舉惡時亦如是耶?答:爾也。然云善者,約隨舉無側義云耳。無方者,若三乘,則隨說一二乃至無量非是無方。何者?三乘之教隨別機說,故非無方。一乘之教,隨說諦緣度等,徹於海印究竟之際自在而說,故云無方也。應機隨病非一者,猶如小醫各別與藥。若大醫王普集天下種種諸物作一團藥,無問病之若于差別,平等普與、病無不治。一乘之佛亦復如是,普應諸教機根之病,唯以一種海印定法稱根而說,聲聞人中與全海印四諦之法,獨覺人中與全海印緣生之法,菩薩人中與全海印六度之法,乃至熟頓人中亦全全與之耳。

Farong's Record states: As for "good teaching": in terms of the three vehicles, that which accords and benefits in this life and other lifetimes is good, while that which contradicts and harms in this life and other lifetimes is evil. That which cannot be categorized as either of these two is the indeterminate. In terms of the One Vehicle, it is simply good. Why so? Master Yan said: "The ultimate purport of perfect interfusion leaves nothing unvirtuous; meeting conditions, it accords with all, bestowing without discriminating among things." Therefore, know that the One Vehicle is uniquely good. Question: If so, are the indeterminate and evil also simply this one good? Answer: Yes. Question: If so, when evil is brought up, is it also like this? Answer: Yes. However, its being called "good" is said in the sense that whatever is brought up lacks any bias. As for "without direction" [or bounds]: in terms of the three vehicles, expounding one, two, or even immeasurable [teachings] according to [capacities] is not "without direction." Why? Because the teachings of the three vehicles are expounded in accordance with distinct faculties, they are not "without direction." The teaching of the One Vehicle, whether expounding the truths, conditions, or pāramitās, penetrates to the ultimate limit of the ocean seal and expounds with sovereign ease; hence it is called "without direction." As for "responding to faculties according to their diseases, being not of one kind": it is like minor physicians who dispense remedies separately. A supreme physician king, however, gathers all kinds of substances from under heaven to make a single medicinal ball; regardless of how different the diseases are, he bestows it universally and equally, and there is no illness it does not cure. The Buddha of the One Vehicle is also like this: responding universally to the diseases of faculties and capacities across the various teachings, he expounds only with the one Dharma of the ocean seal samādhi according with their faculties: among śrāvakas, he bestows the Dharma of the four truths of the complete ocean seal; among pratyekabuddhas, he bestows the Dharma of conditioned arising of the complete ocean seal; among bodhisattvas, he bestows the Dharma of the six pāramitās of the complete ocean seal; and even among the mature and the sudden, he also bestows it completely and entirely.
