大方廣佛華嚴經疏 11.5

11.5

三宗趣者，標列無邊勝德，廣釋所知世界海為宗。然其意趣乃有多種：一令諸菩薩發大信解悟入為趣。謂令知佛及菩薩大悲行海廣覆無邊盡眾生界，倣而行故；世界無邊悉嚴淨故；眾生無邊悉化度故；剎由心異，當淨自心及他心故；世界重重無盡無盡，以大行願悉充滿故；佛界生界非一非異，能正了知成大智故、未能了者熏成種故，皆意趣也。亦為顯此深意，故此品來。故下頌云「離諸諂誑心清淨，常樂慈悲性歡喜，志欲廣大深信人，彼聞此法生欣悅。」若不聞此無邊無盡無二之境，滯於權小，普賢行願何由可成？故普賢自說為令眾生等文，皆是此品之意趣也。

Third, the central principle and aim: taking the setting forth of boundless superior virtues and the broad explanation of the ocean of worlds to be known as the central principle. Yet its aims and purports are manifold: first, to cause all bodhisattvas to generate great faith and understanding and awaken into it as the aim. That is, to make them know that the ocean of the great compassionate practices of the buddhas and bodhisattvas broadly covers without bound the entirety of sentient beings' realms, so that they may emulate and practice it; that worlds are boundless, all to be adorned and purified; that sentient beings are boundless, all to be transformed and delivered; that kṣetras differ according to the mind, so one should purify one's own mind and others' minds; that worlds are multiply layered, inexhaustible and infinite, to be completely filled with great practices and vows; that the buddha-realm and the sentient-being realm are neither one nor different, so that those able to properly comprehend them achieve great wisdom, and those not yet able to comprehend them have seeds perfumed [into them]—these are all aims. It is also to reveal this profound meaning that this chapter comes. Therefore, a subsequent verse says: "Free from all flattery and deception, mind pure, / Always delighting in compassion, naturally joyful, / A person of vast aspiration and deep faith— / Hearing this Dharma, they give rise to joy." If one does not hear of this boundless, inexhaustible, and non-dual realm, and remains stagnant in provisional and Hinayāna [teachings], how could Samantabhadra's practices and vows ever be accomplished? Therefore, Samantabhadra's own words stating that it is to cause sentient beings [to achieve this], etc., are all the aim and purport of this chapter.
