華嚴經探玄記 13.68

13.68

Fourth, the passage beginning "This bodhisattva dwelling in the [Stage of] Presence" clarifies the fruition of attaining the indestructible mind. Among the ten phrases, the first is general. "Profound mind" means deeply penetrating and difficult to shake; in the Treatise Sūtra, "indestructible mind" refers to being firm and non-regressing. The remaining nine are particular: 1. faithful contemplation regarding the principle; 2. practice capable of receiving subduing; 3. being able not to be alarmed or frightened in profound and secret places; 4. not losing one's own share; 5. superior progress without cessation; 6. not envying others' virtues and not breaking one's own precepts—the two practices being universally purified is why it is called "vast mind"; 7. loving-kindness universally benefiting sentient beings; 8. seeking the wisdom of higher bhūmis; 9. skillfully transforming sentient beings.
