華嚴經探玄記 5.20

### [5.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.5.20)

初偈中分二：先敘此會事、後三釋疑。前中初二敘〈昇天品〉事；次三敘此處集相；次二敘結通事，於中先明所由、後顯其相。二釋伏疑。疑云：佛果自在，可得一身赴一切會無有障礙，思議不逮。菩薩因人，既局不足，何因亦得如此普遍？釋中三：初偈初發心深、二修行深、三成德深，故得同佛遍也。

> The first \[set of\] verses is divided into two: first, recounting the events of this assembly; second, three \[verses\] resolving doubts. In the former, the first two recount the events of the "Chapter on Ascending to the Heavens"; the next three recount the marks of gathering at this place; the next two recount the events concluding with universal pervading, within which it first explains the reason and then reveals its marks. Second, resolving latent doubts. The doubt says: "The Buddha's fruition is sovereign, so a single body can attend all assemblies without obstruction, beyond the reach of thought. A bodhisattva is a person in the causal \[stage\], limited and deficient; for what reason can they also be all-pervasive like this?" In the resolution, there are three \[points\]: first, the initial aspiration of mind is deep; second, the cultivation of practice is deep; third, the accomplishment of virtues is deep; therefore, they can pervade like the Buddha.
