大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 72.5

72.5

In the Commentary, from “Now, the first, individual characteristic, has four” onward, this is the separate explanation. The text has three [parts]: first, a general introduction; next, from “First, arising” onward, the separate explanation; later, from “These individual characteristics” onward, the general conclusion. In the second, all sections of the treatise have three parts: first, listing the four names in full; second, citing the sūtra in full to match them; third, taking them up again to explain them. In the text of the Commentary, it individually correlates the three sections of the treatise with the meanings of the four unhindered cognitions. Now, for the first, individual characteristics, the treatise enumerates the names in full, saying: “First, the individual characteristic of arising phenomena; second, the individual characteristic of distinction; third, the individual characteristic of firm concept; fourth, the individual characteristic of the distinction of that concept.”
