"Truth" is what is real. But now the "opposite of truth" is what? It is falsehood. Hence in the very beginning he did not say animosity or falsehood but instead he said the opposite of friendship and truth, what does this mean? He meant that they "refer neither to the absence of friendship and truth, nor to what is different from these two." As it is not just the absence of them. Remember that I had told you this earlier about how to collectively decide on an issue. We would ask those who agree with the first alternative to raise their hands first. Then we would ask those who agree with the second alternative to raise their hands the second time. But after we vote, many people are still undecided. Now the situation here is not the same case. It is that for those who agree, please raise your hand. And for those who do not raise their hands, this would mean they oppose this. There are only these two choices. So, no one is left out. Hence what this place is telling us is the same. This is the reason he used the word "opposite" and the word "absence." It is whatever that is opposite of friendship and the truth, whatever that is incompatible to friendship and the truth. These are what we should remedy. These are all included in ignorance.

希求解脱 : 无明如非亲实等 II

“实”是实在的,现在呢“非实”是什么?虚诳的。所以它这个地方,他不说怨敌、虚诳,而说非亲、实,是意思什么?说“非唯遮无亲友谛实,及异亲实”,不但是遮止这一个。记得不记得我前面告诉你们,说我们共同在这里表决一样东西的时候,说赞成甲的请举手,赞成乙的请举手,举完了半天还有很多人有问题的。现在不是,赞成的请举手,不举手的就是反对的,就这两样,那就没有遗漏了。所以在这个地方也告诉我们,他所以用这个“非”、所以用这个“遮”的原因何在,是这样—就是凡是不亲爱的、不实在的,与这个所有跟亲、实相违的,这个就是我们要对治的,这个都包含在无明当中。
