淨名經集解關中疏 2.407

2.407

The Buddha told the bodhisattvas: "There is a dharma gate of liberation called 'the exhaustible and the inexhaustible', which you all should study." Below, the second part answers. The text has four parts: first, stating the name; second, a brief explanation; third, an extensive explanation; fourth, concluding encouragement. This is the first. Sengzhao says: "Conditioned dharmas have the three characteristics, therefore they are exhaustible. Unconditioned dharmas lack the three characteristics, therefore they are inexhaustible."
