大方廣佛華嚴經疏 19.26

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [19.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.19.26)

初中，天帝問者，在彼宮故，聞前速成生疑念故，菩提心是萬行主故。問法慧者，是會主故，初心具後之德唯慧境故。下正顯問端。雖則正問功德下，法慧答功德之量便顯發心之相，是為菩薩善巧辯才。

> In the first \[part\], the Lord of Heaven questions because it is in his palace, because hearing the swift completion previously caused doubt to arise, and because bodhicitta is the master of the ten thousand practices. He questions Dharmamati because he is the master of the assembly, and because the initial mind possessing the subsequent virtues is exclusively the realm of wisdom. Below, he directly reveals the beginning of the inquiry. Although he directly inquires about the merit below, Dharmamati answers with the measure of merit, thereby revealing the characteristic of arousing the mind; this is the bodhisattva's skillful eloquence.
