大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 77.19

77.19

疏「具如西域記及大集月藏分第十」者，此即總指上來諸處，引《西域記》不局一卷。〈月藏分〉的指第十。然〈月藏分〉當第十二，有十卷經。第十卷中，即〈建立塔寺品〉第十九。爾時娑婆世界主大梵天王、釋提桓因、四大天王等，及諸眷屬從坐而起，合掌向佛一心敬禮，而作是言：「佛說於此四天下中，所有過去諸佛如來之所建立住持大塔，牟尼諸佛所依住處，於現在世及未來世而常不空。佛與菩薩摩訶薩等，降大法雨皆悉充滿。初名眾仙所興、次名德積、次名金剛焰、次名香室、次名睒婆梨、次名賢城、次名須質多羅、次名水光、次名香熏、次名善建立、次名遮波羅、次名金燈、次名樂住、次名牟真隣陀、次名金剛地、次名慈窟、次名那羅延窟、次名渠摩娑羅香、次名惠頂、次名大德窟、次名善現、次名青欝茂、次名虛空子、次名牛頭栴檀室、次名難勝，此是過去諸佛建立住持大塔，常為菩薩等之所加護，是故我等常所供養。世尊所有聲聞弟子，於現在世及未來世，復有幾所塔寺住處，令我等輩護持養育。」然此初數處，與此經同，可以意得，故不具引。下取意引。爾時世尊微笑，面門放種種光。時四天下有無量百千諸佛住處而現，東州八萬佛現、北州百千、西州五百、南州二百五十千佛處現，廣說諸國各有佛現等，下諸天龍等發願護持。

Regarding the commentary's words, "Detailed as in the *Records of the Western Regions* and the tenth [fascicle] of the Candragarbha section of the *Mahāsaṃnipāta*": this is a general reference to all the aforementioned places, citing the *Records of the Western Regions* without being confined to a single fascicle. The Candragarbha section specifically points to the tenth [fascicle]. However, the Candragarbha section corresponds to the twelfth [section], comprising ten fascicles of sūtra. In the tenth fascicle is the nineteenth, the "Chapter on Establishing Stūpas and Monasteries". At that time, the lord of the Sahā world, the Great Brahmā King, Śakra Devānām Indra, the Four Heavenly Kings, and so forth, along with their retinues, arose from their seats, joined their palms facing the Buddha, single-mindedly paid homage, and spoke these words: "The Buddha taught that in this four-continent world, all the great stūpas established and maintained by the past Buddhas, the Tathāgatas, and the dwelling places relied upon by the Muni Buddhas, are constantly not vacant in the present and future ages. The Buddhas and bodhisattva-mahāsattvas and so forth shower the great rain of Dharma, completely filling them. The first is named Arising of Many Seers; the next is named Accumulation of Virtue; the next is named Vajra Flame; the next is named Fragrant Chamber; the next is named Śālmalī; the next is named City of the Worthy; the next is named Sucitra; the next is named Water Light; the next is named Fragrant Fumigation; the next is named Well Established; the next is named Cāpāla; the next is named Golden Lamp; the next is named Delightful Abode; the next is named Mucilinda; the next is named Vajra Ground; the next is named Cave of Compassion; the next is named Nārāyaṇa Cave; the next is named Gomasāra Fragrance; the next is named Peak of Wisdom; the next is named Cave of Great Virtue; the next is named Good Manifestation; the next is named Lush Blue-Green; the next is named Child of Space; the next is named Ox-Head Sandalwood Chamber; the next is named Difficult to Overcome. These are the great stūpas established and maintained by the past Buddhas, which are always protected by the bodhisattvas and others; therefore, we constantly make offerings to them. As for the stūpas, monasteries, and dwelling places of the World-Honoured One's śrāvaka disciples in the present and future ages, how many more are there that we should protect and sustain?" However, these first few places are the same as in this sūtra, which can be understood from the meaning; thus they are not fully cited. What follows is cited in gist: At that time, the World-Honoured One smiled, and his mouth emitted various lights. Then, in the four continents, immeasurable hundreds of thousands of dwelling places of Buddhas manifested: eighty thousand Buddhas appeared in the eastern continent, one hundred thousand in the northern continent, five hundred in the western continent, and two hundred and fifty thousand Buddha places appeared in the southern continent. It explains extensively that each kingdom has Buddhas appearing, and so forth, and below, the devas, nāgas, and others make vows to protect and maintain them.
