佛以一音演說法。或有恐畏或歡喜。或生厭離或斷疑。斯則神力不共法 此二行樂說辯也。肇曰。眾生聞苦報則恐畏。聞妙果則歡喜。聞不淨則厭離。聞法法相則斷疑。不知一音何演而令歡畏異生。此豈二乘所能共也。

"The Buddha expounds the Dharma with a single voice: / Some feel fear, while others rejoice; / Some give rise to revulsion, while others sever doubt: / This is the unshared dharma of his spiritual power." These two lines are unimpeded eloquence in delightful discourse. Sengzhao says: "Sentient beings, hearing of the retribution of suffering, feel fear; hearing of the wondrous fruit, they rejoice; hearing of impurity, they give rise to revulsion; hearing of the marks of phenomena, they sever doubt. One does not know how a single voice is expounded to cause joy and fear to arise differently. How could this be shared by the two vehicles?"
