大方廣佛華嚴經疏 41.12

41.12

第二位果。初調柔中，文亦有四：初調柔行。體中亦有法、喻、合。法中亦三：初緣。次「於彼」下能練行。言護持正法者，由方便行滿，守護於他故，得於三界為大師，所以能護。三「利益眾生」下明所練淨。論云此地釋名應知者，即以經文為釋名，謂利益眾生是有中殊勝行，法忍清淨即空中方便智，此二是行。善根轉更增勝者，明功用究竟，即是遠義。喻中，金喻證智，信等善根。眾寶間錯者，即一切菩提分法方便行功用滿足，故令前善根轉勝。第二「佛子譬如日光」下明教智淨，先喻、後合。喻中，光義如前地。而此日光盛，故勝彼月光。以月光清涼如般若故，日光用廣如方便故。餘並可知。

Second is the result of the station. In the initial [section on] pliancy, the text also has four [parts]: First is the practice of pliancy. Within its essence, there are also the dharma, the simile, and the application. Within the dharma, there are also three: first, the conditions; next, from "in that" downward, the capacity to refine practice. As for "protecting and upholding the true Dharma," because the practice of expedient means is fulfilled and protects others, he is able to be a great teacher in the triple realm; hence he is able to protect [it]. Third, from "benefiting sentient beings" downward, explains that which is refined and purified. The Treatise states that the explanation of the name of this stage should be known here, which means taking the sūtra text as the explanation of the name: benefiting sentient beings is the superior practice within existence, and the purity of patience with phenomena is the expedient wisdom within emptiness—these two are the practices. "Roots of goodness increase and surpass even more" clarifies that effort has reached its ultimate; this is the meaning of "Far-Reaching." In the simile, gold is a simile for realization wisdom, which is the root of goodness such as faith. Being "inlaid with various jewels" means that the effort in the practice of expedient means for all factors conducive to awakening has been fulfilled, thus causing the former roots of goodness to become increasingly superior. Second, from "Sons of the Buddha, it is like the light of the sun" downward, clarifies the purity of instructive wisdom, with the simile first and then the application. In the simile, the meaning of light is as in the previous stage; however, this sunlight is ablaze, and thus surpasses that moonlight. For moonlight is cool and refreshing like prajñā, while sunlight's function is vast like expedient means. The rest can be understood.
