御注金剛般若波羅蜜經宣演 2.23

2.23

經。須菩提如來至不異語者　演曰。次令信受而行於忍。世善賢良猶無諸誑。況乎大聖。對誘天龍有四諦語而為詭說。論云。真語者為顯世諦相故。實語者為顯世諦修行有煩惱及清淨相故。於中實者此行煩惱。此行清淨故。如語者為第一義諦相故。不異語者為第一義諦修行有煩惱及清淨相故。演曰。初總說俗諦。二別說俗諦。三總說真諦。四別說真諦。別說俗中。此有為行煩惱。此有為行清淨。或此行生煩惱如為名利行。此行增清淨如捨名利行。別說真中。依真修行有所斷煩惱有能斷清淨。或依真諦而修行時。此行生煩惱如有住心施。此行增清淨如無住心施。今勸菩薩依真諦修應信生忍。此不誑語者。即屬不異約口名誑約心名異。彼論自下為斷第九道非作因段。論云。此中有疑於證果中無道。云何彼於果能作因。頌云。

Sūtra: "Subhūti, the Tathāgata [...] does not speak differently." / Exposition: Next, [the sūtra] causes them to faithfully accept this and practice forbearance. Even worldly good and worthy persons are free from all deceit, how much more so the Great Sage? When guiding gods and dragons with the words of the four truths, would he make deceptive statements? The treatise says: "'Speaker of the true' is to reveal the characteristics of conventional truth. 'Speaker of the real' is to reveal that the practice of conventional truth has the characteristics of defilement and purity; in this, 'real' refers to this practice being defilement and that practice being purity. 'Speaker of the such' is to reveal the characteristics of paramārtha-satya. 'Speaker of the not-different' is to reveal that the practice of paramārtha-satya has the characteristics of defilement and purity." Exposition: First, it speaks generally of conventional truth. Second, it speaks distinctively of conventional truth. Third, it speaks generally of ultimate truth. Fourth, it speaks distinctively of ultimate truth. In the distinctive explanation of the conventional: this saṃskṛta practice is defiled, and that saṃskṛta practice is pure; or, this practice generates defilements, such as practicing for the sake of fame and gain, while that practice increases purity, such as practicing having renounced fame and gain. In the distinctive explanation of the ultimate: practicing based on the ultimate, there are defilements to be severed, and there is the purity of being able to sever them; or, when practicing based on ultimate truth, this practice generates defilements, such as giving with an abiding mind, while that practice increases purity, such as giving with an unabiding mind. Now, it encourages bodhisattvas to practice based on ultimate truth, and that they should believe and generate forbearance. "Speaker of the not-deceitful" belongs to the not-different; with respect to speech it is called deceitful, and with respect to mind it is called different. From here onward, that treatise aims to sever the ninth doubt, that the path is not the cause [of the fruit]. The treatise says: "Here there is a doubt: within the realized fruit there is no path; how can that path act as a cause for the fruit?" The verse says:
