大方廣佛華嚴經疏 51.3

51.3

初明來意。來意有三：一分來，前明修因契果生解分，則於法起解；今明託法進修成行分，則依解起行，義次第故。二會來者，前會因圓果滿生解之終，此會正行處世無染，通於始終，故次來也。三品來者，前品出現之果殊勝，今明依彼起行圓融，故次來也。雖一分一會一品是同，所對既殊，來意亦別。

First, explaining the purpose of its occurrence. The purpose of its occurrence is threefold: 1. The occurrence of the section: previously, the section on cultivating the cause, tallying with the fruit, and generating understanding was explained, where understanding arises with regard to the Dharma; now, the section on relying on the Dharma, advancing cultivation, and perfecting practice is explained, where practice is generated based on understanding, because the meaning follows in sequence. 2. The occurrence of the assembly: the previous assembly concluded the generation of understanding where the cause is perfected and the fruit is fulfilled; this assembly concerns correct practice dwelling in the world without defilement, pervading from beginning to end, and hence it occurs next. 3. The occurrence of the chapter: in the previous chapter, the fruit of manifestation was supreme; now it explains that based on that, one generates practice that is perfectly interpenetrating, and hence it occurs next. Although the single section, single assembly, and single chapter are identical [in substance], since that to which they are paired differs, the purpose of their occurrence is also distinct.
