大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 71.55

71.55

Regarding the commentary's statement, "The Nirvāṇa [Sūtra] has the seven good knowledges," and so forth, this is the second part, citing other texts. In this there are three points: First, citing the Nirvāṇa [Sūtra]. Although cited extensively before, now it briefly lists the names: 1. knowing dharmas, 2. knowing meanings, 3. knowing the time, 4. knowing contentment, 5. knowing oneself, 6. knowing the assembly, 7. knowing superiority and inferiority. Second, from "Maitreya" downward, citing the Yogācārabhūmi. Its twenty items are: 1. Skilled knowledge of dharmas and meanings, which subsumes three matters: gradual, sequential, and sequential in phrases and meanings. 2. Able to broadly proclaim, which subsumes two: sudden and possessing virtues. 3. Fearless in the assembly, which is in accordance with the assembly. 4. Uninterrupted eloquence, which is continuous. 5. Skill in upāya, which subsumes three: knowing the time, showing, and delighting. 6. Practicing dharmas in accordance with the Dharma, which subsumes two: according to Dharma and a mind of peace. 7. Complete in deportment, which is correct intent. 8. Valiant diligence, which subsumes two meanings: exhorting and compassion. 9. Untired in body and mind, which subsumes three virtues: not disparaging, unconfused, and mind of benevolence. 10. Accomplishing the power of forbearance, which subsumes two virtues: not clinging to fame and gain, and not praising oneself and deprecating others. Therefore, the expansions and contractions across various sūtras and treatises differ, but the broad purport is not different.
