大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 38.17

38.17

Regarding the commentary's passage beginning with "In terms of what is there impermanence?", this is the second section, explaining the specific clauses. The first four are self-evident. The subsequent four clauses from "fifth, unconditioned (wu zuo)" onward are generated in sequence from the preceding four clauses: from impermanence arises unconditionedness; from suffering arises tastelessness; from emptiness arises lack of intrinsic nature; and from non-self arises lack of location. The final two clauses conclude both, freeing one from the two grasps. What was mentioned above as "the contemplation of all worldly realms as disagreeable" is one of the ten contemplations from the twenty-sixth fascicle of the Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa. The ten contemplations are: (1) impermanence, (2) suffering, (3) non-self, (4) the impurity of food, (5) all worldly realms as disagreeable, (6) death, (7) impurity, (8) abandonment, (9) dispassion, and (10) cessation.
