法藏《大乘起信論義記》及元曉與見登的相關闡釋=Fa-Tzang's Interpretation of the Interweaving between Tathagatagarbha and Vijñaptimatra in His Commentary on Mahayanasraddhotpada and Yüan-hxiao's and Jiann-deng's Discussion on It
In the perspective of the topic of the interweaving between Tathagatagarbha and Vijñaptimatra, this paper tackles Fa-Tzang's (法藏) commentary on the theory of “one heart, two doors” in Mahayanasraddhotpada (《大乘起信論》). Tathagatagarbhavada exposes the ontological structure of the absolute mind. Vijñaptimatravada exposes the theory of the appearing of relative world. How can be synchronized these two trends? The theory of "one mind, two doors" in Mahayanasraddhotpada includes the understanding about the involving of the theory of the appearing of relative world into Tathagatagarbhavada's exposition of the ontological structure of the absolute mind. But this "involving" includes many theoretical difficulties, therefore Fa-Tzang's, Yüan-hsiao's (元曉) and Jiann-deng's (見登) commentaries on Mahayanasraddhotpada try to solve these difficulties. This paper firstly tackles the above theme in the Fa-Tzang's commentary on the theory of "one heart, two doors" in Mahayânasraddhotpada and after then illuminates the continuously exposition in Yüan-hsiao's and Jiann-deng's synthesis of the theory of absolute mind in Mahayânasraddhotpada and Hsüang-tsang's new teaching of Vijñaptimatravada.
