3.27

「私謂」下，章安私釋。私者，《蒼頡》云「不公也。」既非大師當眾所說，又非親對大師印述，故名為私。若論二諦，證雖在聖，本教凡夫；雖教凡夫，實未證得。語證則奪凡夫無分，故云「併奪」。論教則與凡夫俱得，故云「併與」。若於凡邊奪真而與其俗，故云「半與半奪」。

From "Privately I say" downward is Zhang'an's private interpretation. "Private", as the Cangjie says, means "not public". Because it was neither spoken by the Great Master in the presence of the assembly nor verified and related directly to the Great Master, it is called "private". As for the two truths, although realization belongs to the sage, the original teaching was for ordinary people; yet although taught to ordinary people, they have not truly realized it. Speaking of realization, it is entirely stripped away from ordinary people, who have no share in it, hence called "complete stripping away". Speaking of teaching, it is equally shared with ordinary people, hence called "complete giving". If for the ordinary person the ultimate is stripped away while the conventional is given to them, this is called "half-giving and half-stripping away".
