### [7.47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.7.47)

自下第二同生眾。文分為三：初明普賢菩薩得一切法門、次十普菩薩各得一門、後十異名菩薩各一法門，此三各有長行及頌。就初普賢長行中二：初總標所入、二別顯十門。今初二句先指陳法體、次辯法功能。今初。言不思議者，謂數過圖度、理絕言思故。言方便海者，謂不動真而成事。巧以因門契果，故云方便。後「入如來」下，辯法功能，謂證入因圓、趣入果海故。然前後但明以別入總，故各得一解脫門，猶如百川一一入海。今明以總入總，如海入海，故得難思解脫門。復稱能入為方便海，以普賢是同異二眾之上首故。

> From here below is the second, the assembly of identical birth. The text is divided into three: first, clarifying that Bodhisattva Samantabhadra attains all dharma-doors; next, the ten Samanta- \['Universal'\] bodhisattvas each attain one door; finally, ten bodhisattvas of distinct names each \[attain\] one dharma-door. These three each have prose and verses. In the first prose on Samantabhadra, there are two parts: first, a general indication of that which is entered; second, individually showing the ten doors. Now, the first two lines first point out the essence of the dharma, and next distinguish the function of the dharma. Now, the first. Saying 'inconceivable' means that the number surpasses calculation and the noumenon transcends speech and thought. Saying 'ocean of expedients' means accomplishing phenomena without disturbing the real. Skillfully tallying with the fruit through the door of the cause, it is therefore called 'expedient'. Afterwards, from 'entering the Tathāgata' downward, it distinguishes the function of the dharma, meaning that witnessing and entering, the cause is complete; advancing and entering, the fruit is an ocean. However, before and after it only clarified entering the general through the particular, so each attained a single liberation door, just as the hundred rivers each enter the ocean. Now it clarifies entering the general through the general, like an ocean entering an ocean; hence he attains an inconceivable liberation door. Furthermore, he praises that which is able to enter as an ocean of expedients, because Samantabhadra is the leader of both the identical and distinct assemblies.
