十不二門指要鈔 1.58

1.58

問：「他云，一念即一性也，一念靈知性體常寂，又云，性即一念，謂心性靈寂，性即法身，靈即般若，寂即解脫。又云，一念真知妙體。又云，並我一念清淨靈知。據此等文，乃直指文中一念，名真淨靈知，是約理解。今云屬事，是陰入法。與他所指，賒切如何？」

Question: 'Others say that a single thought-moment is the single nature, and the spiritual awareness of a single thought-moment is in its essential nature constantly quiescent. They also say that nature is identical to a single thought-moment, meaning that the mind-nature is spiritually aware and quiescent; nature is identical to the Dharma-body, spiritual awareness is identical to prajñā, and quiescence is identical to liberation. They also say, the wondrous essence of true awareness in a single thought-moment. They also say, and my pure, spiritually aware knowledge in a single thought-moment. Relying on such texts, they directly point to the single thought-moment in the text and name it true, pure, spiritual awareness; this is an understanding in terms of principle. Now you say it belongs to phenomena and is a dharma of the aggregates and sense-bases. How do these compare with what the other party points to, in terms of being distant or immediate?'
