大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 16.48

16.48

As for the commentary's "Furthermore, elaborating these assemblies, each having hosts and retinues": this is the sixth section. The above merely clarified the pervasion of the primary sūtra; now it distinguishes the pervasion of the attendant sūtras, citing the text of the third assembly. "Then the preceding assemblies that pervaded the dharmadhātu each have layered hosts and retinues": this statement applies by analogy to the above nine assemblies that pervade the dharmadhātu.
