大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 17.75

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [17.75](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.17.75)

疏「第二標主時處」下，釋一時中，文二：先唯就一時說、後感應合說。今初。言「亦隨世假立」者，謂佛法中時不可得。《中論》云「因物故有時，離物何有時？物尚無所有，何況當有時。」今隨世俗說有一時，《智論》意同。言「揀異餘時」者，謂趣舉一時耳。疏「即法王啟運嘉會之時」者，即肇公語，意亦可知。啟者開也，嘉者善也。《易》云「元者善之長也，享者嘉之會也。」謂佛開大運，演說真乘，即嘉善之會也。

> Regarding the commentary's 'Second, pointing out the Lord, time, and place' and what follows: in explaining 'at one time', the text has two parts: first, explaining solely in terms of 'at one time'; later, explaining by combining stimulus and response. Now, the first. In saying 'it is also nominally established in accordance with worldly convention', it means that time is unobtainable within the Buddha's Dharma. The Madhyamakaśāstra states: 'Because of entities there is time; apart from entities, how could there be time? Entities do not even exist; how much less could there be time!' Here, in accordance with worldly convention, it is said that there is 'one time'; the Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa has the same intent. Saying 'differentiating it from other times' means simply citing a single time. The commentary states: 'It is the time of the auspicious assembly when the Dharma King inaugurates his destiny.' These are Master Sengzhao's words, and the meaning can also be understood. 'Inaugurate' means to open; 'auspicious' means good. The Book of Changes states: 'The primary is the greatest of goods; the prosperous is the convergence of auspiciousness.' This means that the Buddha inaugurates his great destiny and expounds the true vehicle, which is the convergence of auspicious good.
