大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 53.35

53.35

Regarding the commentary's: "Second, because the cognition of the received retribution is fulfilled, completing the cognition of all aspects": this has two meanings. First, in terms of not yet having attained Buddhahood, it is merely the received retribution of the tenth stage; dwelling there, the perfections of cognition are already complete, hence it is said that "the cognition of the received retribution is fulfilled." Second, in terms of attaining bodhi in that heaven, fully possessing the cognition of all aspects, it is called the locus of cognition. However, discussing attaining Buddhahood, generally speaking there are three modes: First, lodging in transformation to reveal the real: being in Jambudvīpa immediately pervades the dharmadhātu. Second, lodging in reward to reveal the real: attaining it in Akaniṣṭha immediately pervades the dharmadhātu. Third, relying on the real to reveal the real: wondrously transcending the three periods of time, its time, place, and bodily marks cannot be fixed. Here it relies on the middle meaning.
