大方廣佛華嚴經疏 5.18

5.18

Third, from "all Tathāgatas" onward, the virtue of the non-obstruction between both practices: this means drawing in and gathering the Buddha's virtues without obstructing the cultivation of causes. The text has five clauses: 1. Drawing in and gathering the Buddha's virtues. Yet this has two meanings: first, practice being completed, they gather the fruition; second, all buddhas equally bestow their empowerment. 2. From "all" onward, being reborn universally following buddhas, without distinguishing between pure and defiled [realms]. 3. From "having already" onward, making offerings to buddhas to amass merit: boundless in the ten directions and limitless across the three times, because they make offerings to all these buddhas, and because they rejoice in having encountered them without clinging to the marks of merit, they are tireless throughout long ages. 4. From "all" onward, constantly acting as assistants, the meaning applying to both true and responsive [bodies]. 5. From "constantly with" onward, taming beings through compassionate vows: not benefiting beings with partial and small teachings, they only gather beings through universal vows of identical essence to make them realize bodhi, thereby manifesting the complete fullness of the essence of wisdom.
