大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 85.39

85.39

疏「具斯四義名無上寶，存以梵音」者，以具梵音經題云「楞伽阿跋多羅寶經」，阿之言無，跋多羅云上寶，即此方之言。又多羅亦是寶義，則譯人雙存。楞伽正是難往之義。上之四義，前二即無上寶，後二明於難往，高顯伽王之所居故，即得通者不難往故。疏「表此住中觀一切法如虛空無處所故」者，彼具云「此菩薩以十種行觀一切法，所謂觀一切法無常、二一切法苦、三空、四無我、五無作、六無味、七不如名、八無處所、九離分別、十無堅實。」釋曰：皆有「一切法」言。今但舉三八二句以順住空，然餘八亦是空義。

Regarding the commentary's "Endowed with these four meanings, it is called the Unsurpassed Jewel, retaining the Sanskrit phonetics": because it retains the Sanskrit phonetics, the title of the sūtra is *Laṅkāvatāra-ratna-sūtra*. *A* means 'un-', *vatāra* means 'surpassed jewel'; these are the words of this land. Furthermore, *tārā* also has the meaning of 'jewel,' so the translator retained both. *Laṅkā* precisely has the meaning of 'difficult of access.' Of the above four meanings, the first two are the unsurpassed jewel, and the latter two clarify 'difficult of access,' because it is the dwelling place of the lofty and eminent king of Laṅkā, and for those who have attained supernormal powers it is not difficult of access. Regarding the commentary's "signifying that in this abode, one contemplates all dharmas as like empty space, having no locus": that [sūtra] fully states, 'This bodhisattva contemplates all dharmas through ten kinds of practice, namely: 1. contemplating all dharmas as impermanent, 2. all dharmas as suffering, 3. empty, 4. non-self, 5. uncreated, 6. tasteless, 7. not corresponding to names, 8. having no locus, 9. free from conceptual discrimination, and 10. without solidity.' Explanation: All contain the words 'all dharmas.' Now it only cites clauses three and eight to accord with dwelling in emptiness; however, the remaining eight are also the meaning of emptiness.
