華嚴經探玄記 5.45

5.45

四住，標中釋名可知。《法華》云「從佛口生、從法化生」等。初十自分，同四地中十種法知。初三攝心入理以修止行：一證心於佛、二窮法原底、三安心契彼，以此寄當出世位故，於三寶得不壞淨信。後七照達事相以修觀行：一分折所化聚類多端、二應機現剎差別非一、三眾生依報染淨類異、四業有黑白不同、五果有苦樂之異、六生死有七種差別、七涅槃二四五異，皆於此等分折顯空及聚類差別，二義準之。又釋：七中一總舉正報染淨，次二依報染淨，次二因果染淨，次二分位染淨可知。後十勝進中，初三尋思簡擇、次三擇已正修、後三修已成滿、末後一總結無二。又釋、初三教法、次三行法、次三果法、後一理法。徵釋可知。

In the fourth abode, the explanation of the name in the positing should be known. The Saddharmapuṇḍarīka Sūtra says: "Born from the Buddha's mouth, born transformed from the Dharma," and so forth. The initial ten of one's own level are identical to the ten kinds of knowledge of dharmas in the fourth bhūmi. The first three collect the mind into principle to cultivate the practice of calm (śamatha): (1) realizing the mind in the Buddha; (2) plumbing the source and foundation of dharmas; (3) settling the mind in accord with that; because this corresponds to a supramundane stage, one attains indestructible pure faith in the Triratna. The latter seven illuminate phenomenal characteristics to cultivate the practice of contemplation (vipaśyanā): (1) analyzing the manifold groups of those to be transformed; (2) manifesting lands according to capacities with distinctions that are not one; (3) the different categories of defilement and purity in the circumstantial retribution of sentient beings; (4) karma has distinctions of black and white; (5) retributions have distinctions of suffering and pleasure; (6) birth and death has seven kinds of distinctions; (7) nirvāṇa has distinctions of two, four, and five; in all these, analyzing to reveal emptiness and the distinctions among categories, the two meanings should be understood accordingly. Another explanation: among the seven, the first generally presents the defilement and purity of direct retribution, the next two the defilement and purity of circumstantial retribution, the next two the defilement and purity of cause and fruit, and the next two the defilement and purity of stages, as should be known. In the latter ten of superior advancement, the first three are inquiry and selection; the next three are correct cultivation after selecting; the next three are fulfillment after cultivating; the final one generally concludes non-duality. Another explanation: the first three are teaching dharmas, the next three are practice dharmas, the next three are fruition dharmas, and the last one is principle dharma. The question and explanation should be known.
