若色不具三千者,《妙經文句》何故十二入各具千如為萬二千法門耶?且十二入中,唯有一分半屬心,十分半屬色。若如上人所說,只合有一千五百法門,則大師剩說一萬五百也。又《金錍》云:生佛依正,一念具足,一塵不虧。
If form does not possess the three thousand, why does the Miaojing wenju say that the twelve sense-entrances each possess the thousand suchnesses, making twelve thousand dharma gates? Moreover, among the twelve sense-entrances, only one and a half parts belong to mind, while ten and a half parts belong to form. If it were as you say, Venerable Sir, there should only be one thousand five hundred dharma gates, and the Great Master would have redundantly spoken of ten thousand five hundred! Furthermore, the Jinbi says: 'Sentient beings and the Buddha, dependent and proper, are complete in a single thought-moment, and not lacking in a single dust mote.'
