1.22

論所謂不生不滅與生滅和合非一非異　（述曰。此辨相也。如來藏不生滅心舉體□故不離生滅。生滅心相無非真故。故亦不離不生滅心。如是不離名為和合。但是不生滅與生滅和合。以是向末隨緣門故。非是生滅與不生滅和合。以非向本歸真門故。非一異者不生滅心。答。向末則鈍是生滅。無鈍淨真如。向本歸真如者亦是鈍淨真如。答。真如與生滅相和。是得成和合義故言不非一異。全體動故心與生滅非異。而恒不失真如心性故心與生滅不一。若定一者生滅盡時真心應滅即墮斷邊。若定異者無明熏時心應不動即墮常邊。既離二邊故非一異。非一異故方成和合）。

Treatise: What is called neither arising nor ceasing is in conjunction with arising and ceasing, neither identical nor different. (Commentary: This distinguishes the marks. The unarising and unceasing mind of the tathāgatagarbha, because its entire essence [...], is not separated from arising and ceasing; because the marks of the mind of arising and ceasing are nothing other than the true, they are also not separated from the unarising and unceasing mind. Such non-separation is called conjunction. But it is only the unarising and unceasing in conjunction with arising and ceasing, because this is the aspect of proceeding toward the branches and following conditions; it is not arising and ceasing in conjunction with the unarising and unceasing, because it is not the aspect of proceeding toward the root and returning to the real. As for "neither identical nor different," it is the unarising and unceasing mind. Reply: Proceeding toward the branches is wholly arising and ceasing, without pure tathatā; proceeding toward the root and returning to tathatā is also pure tathatā. Reply: Tathatā and arising and ceasing being harmonious with each other accomplishes the meaning of conjunction; hence it says neither identical nor different. Because its entire essence moves, the mind and arising and ceasing are not different; yet because it constantly does not lose the mind-nature of tathatā, the mind and arising and ceasing are not identical. If they were definitively identical, when arising and ceasing ended the true mind would also cease, falling into the extreme of annihilationism. If they were definitively different, when perfumed by avidyā the mind would not move, falling into the extreme of eternalism. Since it is free from both extremes, it is neither identical nor different. Because it is neither identical nor different, conjunction is thereby accomplished.)
