大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 76.28

76.28

In the commentary, under "Fourth, explaining the text...", this first gives an overall outline, which has two parts: directly outlining in terms of the dharma, and later, under "However, regarding these three chapters...", discriminating in terms of persons. The commentary's "indicating that numbers are not separate [from the mind]" explains the word "mind". Under "Numbers and non-numbers...", it explains the word "king", because "king" takes sovereign mastery as its meaning. Under "Also revealing that this number...", it explains both words "mind" and "king" together. "Mind" comprehensively subsumes all phenomena and is the most supreme of all; "king" governs the four seas and is the most supreme. From "the reason for specifically inquiring..." onward, it discriminates what is inquired about. As for the word "turn" (vivarta), it refers to asaṃkhyeya: an asaṃkhyeya of asaṃkhyeyas is one asaṃkhyeya turn, and so on.
