大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 73.62

73.62

疏「近則逆結上來進德之文」者，前經從「於諸法智但應安住不應稱量」下，是進德文。今有十一，如是初一後一即是總意。初句明前皆普賢行，末後明前皆為攝生，中間九句攝前進德即為九段。一如是圓滿菩薩境界，即前經云「應為請問如來佛法」下三句，以三句中，初一上求佛道法、二下化眾生，皆是菩薩之境界故。二如是通達出離之道，即前應觀諸法。一切如幻下三句，如幻如聲皆無體性，是出離法故。三如是受持三世一切佛法，即前「應知諸佛願力」下三句。四如是觀察一切智門，即前「應常安住平等法界」下三句。五如是思惟不變易法，即前「應不分別佛」下二句。六如是明潔增上志樂，即前「應當明解世間所作」下八句，八句皆增上志樂故。七如是信解一切如來，即前「於一切佛深生信解」下三句。八如是了知佛廣大力，即前「於廣界中拔出眾生下至成就諸度」四句。九如是決定心無所礙，即前「所謂親近一切智」下四句。末句如是總結攝生，已如前釋，對前諸段類取耳。

The commentary states: "Proximate[ly], it retroactively concludes the preceding text on advancing virtue." The preceding sūtra from "Toward the wisdom of all dharmas, one should only securely abide and not measure" downward is the text on advancing virtue. Now there are eleven [lines]; such first and last lines represent the overarching meaning. The first line clarifies that the preceding are all Samantabhadra's practices; the last clarifies that the preceding are all for gathering sentient beings; the middle nine lines gather the preceding advancing of virtue into nine sections: (1) "thus perfecting the bodhisattva realm" is the preceding sūtra's three lines from "one should inquire about the Tathāgata's Buddha-dharma" downward, because among the three lines, the first is seeking the Buddha-dharma above, and the second is transforming sentient beings below, both being the bodhisattva's realm; (2) "thus penetrating the path of emancipation" is the preceding three lines from "one should contemplate all dharmas as completely like an illusion" downward, because being like an illusion and like an echo are all without essential nature, which is the dharma of emancipation; (3) "thus upholding all Buddha-dharmas of the three periods of time" is the preceding three lines from "one should know the vow-power of all Buddhas" downward; (4) "thus contemplating all gates of omniscience" is the preceding three lines from "one should constantly and securely abide in the equal dharmadhātu" downward; (5) "thus contemplating the unchanging dharmas" is the preceding two lines from "one should not discriminate the Buddhas" downward; (6) "thus clarifying and purifying supreme resolute intention" is the preceding eight lines from "one should clearly understand the worldly deeds" downward, because the eight lines are all supreme resolute intention; (7) "thus having faith and understanding toward all Tathāgatas" is the preceding three lines from "deeply generating faith and understanding toward all Buddhas" downward; (8) "thus understanding the Buddha's vast, great power" is the preceding four lines from "rescuing sentient beings from the vast realm down to fulfilling the perfections"; (9) "thus having a resolute mind free from obstruction" is the preceding four lines from "so-called drawing near to omniscience" downward. The final line, "thus generally concluding the gathering of sentient beings," has already been explained above; it is to be correlated by analogy with the preceding sections.
