NOTES

One Niigiirjuna scholar has translated Shih-erh-men-lun ( j- ~-I'~,;iIli) as Twelve Topic Treatise. I prefer Twelve Gate Treatise, for the word men (r'J) literally means gate; it is a way to get out of some place and to enter into another, and shih-erh, twelve, is a perfect number for the Chinese. The title Twelve Gate Treatise fits the original purpose of the book, namely, that it is designed as the perfect way to get rid of extreme views and enter into the right view. According to tradition, the verses of the Middle Treatise are given by Niigiirjuna, but their explanations are given by Pingala (w fl). The verses of the Hundred Treatise are given by Aryadeva, but their explanations are given by Vasu (W~). However, in the Twelve Gate Treatise, both verses and explanation are given by Niigiirjuna. The Preface and Table of Contents are given by Seng-jui, whose dates are 352-436.

PREFACE [SHENG-JUIJ

1 1fr (che) literally means snap, cut or prune. Here it means to refute errone­ ous or extreme views, or to prune inessentials. '*' (chung) literally means center, middle, moderation. Here it means to expound or to illuminate some­ thing correctly. It also means to bring out essentials. According to Chi-tsang, che-chung is "to prune things and make them straight or harmonious". (Commentary on the Twelve Gate Treatise, T. 1825, p. 17Ia.)

2 ,.,j:§ (shih-hsiang) literally means the true mark, the reality, but here it primarily means emptiness or the . The opening phrase can be rendered as "The Twelve Gate Treatise is to expound correctly the doctrine of emptiness by refuting extreme views". It might also be rendered, "The Twelve Gate Treatise is the concise summary of the doctrine of emptiness".

3 illli (tao-ch 'ang, bodhimalJ¢ala) literally means the field or place of enlightenment. Here it refers to right observation or enlightenment.

4 In his Early Madhyamika in India and China, Richard Robinson translated yuan and Ii as "the source or the one source" and "the principle or the one principle", respectively (p. 208).

5 If translated literally, "there would be deviations, attached inclinations".

6 Literally, "no matter (shih) is unexhausted". In the previous paragraph, Seng-jui talks about li (fIt'); in this paragraph, he mentions shih (~). Shih is phenomenon and activity, in contrast with Ii, which is theory, the underly­ ing principle, noumenon or essence. The ideas of shih and Ii later become important philosophical concepts in the Hau-yen and T'ien-t'ai Schools, and Neo-Confuncianism.

7 !i;;: (ch 'uan). The term jishtrap comes from the Chuang-tzu, 26.

8 Reliance here means the reasons which serve to support the doctrine of emptiness. It also means the devices which are used to show the emptiness of all things.

9 The terms ;{ilk (chao-tz'u) are taken from the Analects Book IV: Chapter V. 110 NOTES

10 f-l'H~ (liang-hsiian) also means double profundity. Here it refers to the emptiness of emptiness or the doctrine of emptiness. These Chinese terms are taken from the Tao-te-ching, Chapter I. Seng-jui used Taoist and Confucian terms and phrases to explain Buddhist teachings.

11 Or eliminate erroneous views in one destination. -3& (i-chih) also come from the Tao-te-ching, Chapter XXXIX. They mean one destination or unity. The terms iMirP (tien-p'ei) come from the Analects Book IV: Chapter V.

12 'IPd,i,l( (hui-hui) literally means great or broad enough to embrace every­ thing. The phrase comes from the Chuang-tzu, 3, 2a, 4b.

13 The phrase comes from the Tao-te-ching, Chapter XIV.

14 fa. (ho-luan), according to Chi-tsang, is an imperial carriage which has a phoenix singing in a gentle voice. Here it stands for the Great Vehicle. 'The Northern Ocean' is taken from Chuang-tzu I, I A. 1a.

15 Chi-tsang comments that "just as when the sun comes out, there is no longer any dark place, so when this treatise is studied, there will be no more doubt and impediment". (op. cit" p. 1746)

16 Literally, "It is not because of any benefit". This can also be rendered, "I have done so not for the benefit of others".

CHAPTER I: CAUSAL CONDITIONS

1 See David J. Kalupahana, Causality: The Central Philosophy of (University of Hawaii Press, Honolulu, 1975).

2 See Walpola Rahula, What The Buddha Taught (Grove Press, New York, 1959). pp. 52-54.

3 :f!I: (0 also means meaning, purpose, truth and righteousness.

4 I.*~ (fa-tsang) is the treasury of Buddha's teaching and the .

5 Shih-fang, referring to the eight points of the compass, the nadir and the zenith.

6 San-shih or the past, present and future.

7 In the Middle Treatise the doctrine of emptiness is spoken of as not for the unintelligent or slow-witted (XXIV: 12). NOTES 111

8 In the Middle Treatise Nagarjuna also pointed out that the unintelligent people have misconceived emptiness and hence ruined themselves (XXIV: 11 ).

9 Here Nagiirjuna carries on the spirit of the Buddha's compassion as stated at the end of the Middle Treatise: "I reverently bow to Gautama, who out of compassion taught this in order to eliminate all views". (XXVII: 30)

1 0 Tathiigata is normally interpreted as "thus come", "thus gone", or by some as "he who has come from the truth or absolute". It refers to one who has attained or arrived at the state of truth and is one of the epithets of the Buddha.

11 Literally, "immeasurable and boundless".

12 The two vehicles refer to sriivakayiina and pratyekabuddhayiina. The objective of both is personal salvation, while the objective of the or is the salvation of all sentient beings. Thus Mahayana is claimed to be superior to the two vehicles.

13 According to Master T'ai-hsu, great men are the men of great virtue and great wisdom. They are the same as buddhas. See T'ai-hsii, T'ai-hsu-ta-shih­ chiian-shu (A Collection of Great Master T'ai-hsu's Writings), Vol. 13 (Great Master T'ai-hsii Committee, Taipei, 1969), p. 617.

14 Il!ttt'l'f (Kuan-shih-yin) means "Regarder of the world's sounds, or cries". Avalokitesvara was originally represented as a male, but his image was later changed to that of a female figure. Among the Chinese, AvalokiteSvara is known as Kuan-yin, Goddess of Mercy. Kuan-yin is one of the triad of Amitabha, and is also represented as crowned with Amitabha.

15 is a bodhisattva who has obtained great power and stability. He is on Amitabha's right; Avalokitesvara is on his left. They are called the Buddhist Trinity of Sukhavati.

16 MaiijuSrI, in past incarnations, is described as the parent of many buddhas and as having assisted Sakyamuni into existence. His title was the supreme Buddha of the Nagas; now his title is the spiritual Buddha who joyfully cares for the jewel. His future title is to be the Buddha universally revealed. He is usually regarded as the guardian of wisdom and often holds a book, the emblem of wisdom, or a blue lotus. Legends about him are many. In the introductory chapter of the Lotus he is considered the ninth 112 NOTES predecessor or Buddha-ancestor of Siikyamuni. He appears in military array as defender of the faith. His signs and magic words are found in various sutras. His most famous center in China is Wu-t'ai Mountain in the province of Shansi, where he is the object of pilgrimages.

17 is the Buddhist messiah. According to tradition, he was born in Southern India of a family. He now lives in the Tusita heaven. He will come again some 4000 heavenly years after the nirvtil'Ja of Siikyamuni. He presides over the spread of the Buddhist church, protects its members and will usher in ultimate victory for Buddhism.

18 The six ptiramittis are charity, moral conduct, patience, devotion, con­ templation and knowledge. They are the means of crossing over from this shore of births and deaths to the other shore or nirvtil'Ja.

19 A similar issue is discussed in the Middle Treatise 1: 1-2 and 15: 3.

20 1H'~$; (yu-wei-ja, samskrta ) can also be rendered as conditioned things.

21 :t.ll: (wo, titman).

22 Itli:. (pi-chiu, bhik~u) means a religious man, an almsman, or one who has left home, been fully ordained, and depends on alms for a living.

23 Self belongings here refer to attributes or properties of the self.

CHAPTER II: WITH OR WITHOUT EFFECT

A similar statement is given in the Middle Treatise 1: 6. '~fJ (ting-yu).

2 Literally, "real and unreal (yu wu) are contrary to each other; unreal and real (wu yu) are contrary to each other".

3 T ~ (liao-yin).

CHAPTER III: CONDITIONS

1 This verse is similar to the Middle Treatise I: 11. According to Chi-tsang, there are five interpretations of "briefly and broadly": (1) briej1y refers to the aggregate of all causal conditions and broadly refers to each individual condition. (2) Chapter I has been a general examination of causal conditions and hence is implied by briej1y; Chapter II has been an analysis of the status NOTES 113 of effect and hence is called broadly. This third chapter examines both conditions and effect, and hence is both. (3) Briefiy means shortly, and broad ly means comprehensively. Chapter II discusses causal relation at length and hence has a broad examination of causality. This third chapter does 'not discuss causal relation at length and hence has a brief examination of causality. (4) Briefiy refers to the fact that Chapter II studies merely whether an effect is in a cause. Broadly refers to the fact that this chapter examines whether an effecUs in any of various conditions. (5) Briefiy means separately and broadly means together. This third chapter examines causes and condi­ tions separately and together; it is a brief and broad study of causality. (T. 1825, p. 195a).

2 This verse is almost identical with the Middle Treatise 1: 3.

3 Cause here mainly refers to the cause-condition (hete-pratyaya).

4 Conditions here refer to the three other conditions.

5 This verse is almost the same as the Middle Treatise 1: 12.

CHAPTER IV: CHARACTERISTICS

1 This verse is the same as the Middle Treatise 7: 1.

2 The same verse appears in the Middle Treatise 7: 4.

3 Pingala's commentary on the Middle Treatise 7: 4 is identical.

4 This verse is the same as the Middle Treatise 7: 5.

5 Same as the Middle Treatise 7: 6.

6 Same as the Middle Treatise 7: 7.

7 Similar to the Middle Treatise 7: 9. In the Hui-cheng-lun, 34-41, Nag8rjuna used the example of fire to discuss the similar issue.

8 Same as the Middle Treatise 7: 10.

9 This verse is almost the same as the Middle Treatise 7: 11.

10 Same as the Middle Treatise 7: 12. 114 NOTES

11 Same as the Middle Treatise 7: 13.

12 Same as the Middle Treatise 7: 14.

13 The similar example is discussed by Viitsyiiyana under Nydyasiltra 2.2.10; see Bimal Krishna Matilal, The Navya-nydya Doctrine of Negation (Harvard University Press, Cambridge, 1968), Vol. 46, p. 107.

CHAPTER V: WITH OR WITHOUT CHARACTERISTICS

1 1'l (yu) here also means existence and "to be with". ~ (wu) also means non-existence and "not to be with" or "to be without".

2 The last sentence may also be rendered, "there cannot be the functioning of characterization". This verse is quite similar to the Middle Treatise 5: 3.

3 According to Chi-tsang, two fallacies are involved: (1) things have already been characterized and need no characteristics, and (2) if they need to be characterized, it wi111ead to an infinite regress (op. cit., p. 201 b).

4 Pingala's commentary on the Middle Treatise 5: 3 is similar. (see T. 1564, p.76b-c).

5 Characteristics and the characterizable are causally co-ansmg and are devoid of self-nature, hence they are empty. This sentence might also be rendered, "Owing to these reasons, characteristics and the characterizable are empty."

6 40 (wu) also means things or objects.

7 ~40 (wu-wu) also means "there exists nothing" or "nothing exists".

CHAPTER VI: IDENTITY OR DIFFERENCE

1 ~ (shih, vijiuina).

2 IJt. (shou, vedanti) is one of the five .

3 1'llm (yu-lou, asrava) is whatever has kleSa, distress or trouble. It also means mortal life or the stream of births and deaths.

4 ~lm (wu-lou, anasrava) means no drop, leak, flow outside the passion stream, or passionless. It is nirvalJa as contrasted with W~, which is mortality. NOTES 115

5 lS~ (se-yin, riipa).

6 lj~ (hsjng~yjn, samskara).

7 lEJiI, (cheng-chien, samyag-dms).

CHAPTER VII: BEING OR NON-BEING

1 This sentence can also be rendered, "Being and non-being are neither together nor separate".

2 This verse comes from verse 19 of the Siinyatii-saptati.

3 See Chapter IV.

4 "Produced" (I3=. sheng) can also be rendered as "originated".

5 ~ (lao) also means old age.

CHAPTER VIII: NATURE

1 This verse is almost identical with 13: 3 in the Middle Treatise.

2 This sentence is the same as 15: 1b in the Middle Treatise.

3 Similar to the Middle Treatise 15: 2b.

4 The term sramalJa refers to Buddhist monks or ascetics of all kinds who have left their families and quit the passions. A sramalJa must keep well the truth, guard well every uprising of desire, be uncontaminated by outward attractions, be merciful to all and impure to none, not elated by joy nor harrowed by distress, and be able to bear whatever may come. The four fruits of the sramalJa are the four fruitions or rewards resulting from these practices: namely, srota-iipanna-phala, sakradiigiimi-phala, aniigiimi-phala, and -phala, i.e., four grades of sainthood. These four titles are also referred to as the four grades of sramalJas: namely, yellow and blue flowerSramalJas, lotus sramalJOs, meek sramalJOs and ultra-meek sramalJas.

5 The Buddha (the enlightened one), the Dharma (his doctrine or teaching) and the (the community of monks or followers) are known as the Three Jewels. For monks and laymen, initiation into Buddhism starts with a proclamation of allegiance, which runs like this: 116 NOTES

I take my in the Buddha. I take my refuge in the Dharma. I take my refuge in the Sangha.

6 The entire paragraph is almost identical with the Middle Treatise 24: 1-6.

7 These statements are almost identical with the Middle Treatise 24: 8-10.

8 The twofold truth is primarily a teaching device and has three kinds of utility. According to Chi-tsang, self-interest, other-interest and common interest have the following meanings: (1) To comprehend conventional truth and then ultimate truth produces uptiyaprajiui, the wisdom of using skillful means or expedient knowledge: this is self-interest. To comprehend ultimate truth and then conventional truth produces prajiitiuptiya, the means of attain­ ing wisdom: this is other-interest. To produce these two forms of wisdom is common interest. (2) To have one's own comprehension of the twofold truth and one's own production of the two forms of wisdom is self-interest. To use the twofold truth to help others in understanding the Buddha's dharma so as to attain the two forms of wisdom is other-interest. Enlightenment for oneself and others is common interest. (3) To produce prajiui by means of the ultimate truth is self-interest. To produce upaya by knowing the conven­ tional truth is other-interest. To have both prajiia and upaya is common interest (op. cit., p. 206b).

9 In the Middle Treatise Nagarjuna points out that ultimate truth needs conventional truth, while here he stresses the mutual dependence. The two truths are dependent on and relative to each other.

10 If the five skandhas have determinate nature (5£1"1:, ting-hsing), they cannot be changed. Hence, there can be no origination, destruction, imper­ mence, etc.

11 The argument here is similar to the reasoning in the Middle Treatise 24: 20-30.

12 Nagarjuna presents a similar argument in the Middle Treatise 24: 33-38.

13 The same issue is discussed in the Middle Treatise 1: 2b.

14 This is almost the same as the Middle Treatise 15: 3.

15 The same reasoning is found in the Middle Treatise 15: 4-5a. NOTES 117

CHAPTER IX: CAUSE AND EFFECT

1 This verse appears to summarize Niigiirjuna's argument in the Middle Treatise 12: 1.

2 The combinations of conditions do have function, so effect cannot come from elsewhere.

CHAPTER X: THE CREATOR This verse is similar to the Middle Treatise 12: 1.

2 1!J.ri it (wu-liang) here refers to saSvata-vada (eternalism).

3 lll~ (shih-tsun) is an epithet of every Buddha. This is a translation from "Lokaniitha" or "Bhagavat".

4 If,$ (shen) usually means god, divinity or spirit, but here it refers to 1\I$f1t (shen-wo), which is a self, ego, soul or permanent person.

5 This sentence seems to imply that anything which is a cause or an effect is impermanent.

6 Here Niigiirjuna uses "suffering" as an example of a creature in order to discuss the origin, duration and destruction of the universe.

7 k (t'ien) literally means heaven, but here it is a name for devas, gods.

8 Niigiirjuna seems to argue that the idea of God as the omnipotent creator is incompatible with the concept of karma and the principle of causal conditions.

9 What is made is supposed not to have the power of self-making, and hence cannot be changed by itself; otherwise it can make itself and should not be said to be made by God or others.

10 Inlii:lt (ju-yeh).

CHAPTER XI: THE THREE TIMES

1 This verse is similar to the Middle Treatise 11: 2.

2 The question whether negation must be the negation of something has also been raised in the Hui-cheng-lun, 11-16. 118 NOTES

3 "TliBi (k'o-p '0) is the refutable, the object of refutation.

4 The argument is similar to the Hui-cheng-lun, 61-67.

5 ~1t;I (i-yin). The causal relation between them is still doubtful.

CHAPTER XII: PRODUCTION

1 This verse is similar to the Middle Treatise 7: 15.

2 *ft (wei-sheng) may mean simply "is not produced".

3 This sentence can also be rendered, "It is contrary to production" or "there is no principle of producing in it".

4 Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi, also known as Anubodhi, is the excellent, complete enlightenment, the highest correct awareness. It is also considered to be the perfect wisdom of a Buddha.

5 Or "when it pre-possesses [causal conditions]".

6 This has been discussed in Chapter II.

7 "Without production" in the first sentence can also be translated as "before production as such is established". According to Chi-tsang's Commentary on the Twelve Gate Treatise, that which is producing (sheng-shr) must have production as such (sheng) as its substance; without sheng there can be no sheng-shr. So before sheng is established, how can one use sheng-shr to esta blish it? GLOSSARY
