Mahāśamatha-vipaśyanā Principles and Categories (摩訶止觀義例科)


○第二所依正教例者
散引諸文。該乎一代。

This collection draws from various texts, encompassing the entire teaching of the Buddha's lifetime.

文體正意唯歸二經。一依法華本迹顯實。二依涅槃扶律顯常。以此二經同醍醐故。

The true intent of the scriptures ultimately points to two sutras. First, the Lotus Sutra reveals the ultimate reality through its teachings on the original ground and manifested traces. Second, the Nirvana Sutra supports the precepts to reveal the eternal nature. These two sutras are both like the finest ghee—the highest teaching.

所以釋名論待論絕。乃至偏圓文中具引蓮華三喻釋名。

Therefore, the "Explanation of the Title" section discusses both the provisional and the ultimate. It even draws on the three analogies of the lotus flower from the comprehensive and perfect teachings to explain the title.

顯體具用光宅四一。即是實相為行正體也。
況諸境十乘皆以大車為喻。
故生起十乘文末總稱歎云。積劫勤求。道場證得。身子三請。法譬三說。正在茲乎。
是知四種三昧皆依實相。實相是安樂之法。四緣是安樂之行。證實相已。所獲依報名為大果。
起教只是為令眾生開示悟入。
旨歸只是歸於三軌妙法祕藏。
所以始末皆依法華。此即法華三昧之妙行也。
次用涅槃者。雖依法華咸歸一實。末代根鈍。若無扶助。則正行傾覆。正助相添方能遠運。
佛化尚以涅槃為壽。況末代修行非助不前。
故扶律說常以顯實相。推功在彼。故正用法華意顯圓常。即二經齊等。

第一所傳部別例者
第三文義消釋例者
