大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 16.28

16.28

Regarding the Commentary's 'Sixth, explaining "adornment"' and below: the text of the Commentary has thirty-eight meanings, which may temporarily be divided into three sections: first, ten general explanations; next, ten specific explanations; and finally, eighteen clauses on mutual adornment. Now, in the first, when it says 'different as adornments,' it is like adorning a single golden Buddha with ten jewels: one, adorned with pearls; two, adorned with coral, and so forth. One Buddha with ten adornments, applied throughout ten Buddhas, becomes one hundred adornments, evaluated in terms of perfectly interpenetrating cultivation.
