大方廣佛華嚴經疏 20.12

20.12

第三答大行清淨問。有二十句：初十是因、後十是果。今初，行成出障故云清淨。雖數名小異，大同十行，亦通十度。十行所行即是十度。欲勝進彼，故此前修。又下文由為物說法自增諸度，故復廣明。所望處別，互有影略。前七可知。八於惡眾生修菩薩行，心不傾動，是難得中義，本願誓化故。九善法行中，與眾生為清涼法池。大悲堅固普攝眾生，為舍為歸，是廣度眾生。如橋梁義，有力能故。十真實行中，文云此菩薩入三世諸佛體性，與三世諸佛善根同等，智決體同故。第二「菩薩既得」下由行淨因得勝法果。一他力勝、二自善勝、三深定勝、四同行勝、五助道勝、六真智勝、七意樂勝、八觀慧勝、九修行勝、十增進勝。

Third, answering the question on the purity of great practice. There are twenty phrases: the first ten are the cause, and the latter ten are the fruit. Now, in the first: because practice is accomplished and emerges from hindrances, it is called "purity." Although the numbers and names differ slightly, they largely correspond to the ten practices and also apply to the ten pāramitās. What is practiced in the ten practices is precisely the ten pāramitās. Wishing to advance superiorly in them, one cultivates this beforehand. Furthermore, in the text below, because one expounds the Dharma for sentient beings, one's own pāramitās increase; hence it is explained again extensively. Their perspectives differ, mutually reflecting and omitting. The first seven are understandable. (8) Cultivating bodhisattva practice toward evil sentient beings, with a mind unswerving: this is the meaning within "difficult to attain," because one has originally vowed to transform them. (9) In the practice of wholesome dharmas, serving as a cool pool of Dharma for sentient beings: great compassion is firm, universally gathering in sentient beings, acting as a shelter and a refuge—this is broadly crossing over sentient beings. Like the meaning of a bridge, because one has power and capability. (10) In the practice of truth, the text says that this bodhisattva enters into the essence of the Buddhas of the three periods of time and is equal with the wholesome roots of the Buddhas of the three periods of time, because of decisive wisdom and identical essence. Second, from "The bodhisattva, having attained..." onward: through the cause of pure practice, one attains the fruits of superior dharmas: (1) superiority of other-power; (2) superiority of one's own goodness; (3) superiority of deep concentration; (4) superiority of companions; (5) superiority of aids to the path; (6) superiority of true wisdom; (7) superiority of inclination; (8) superiority of contemplative discernment; (9) superiority of cultivation; (10) superiority of progress.
