大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 77.43

77.43

Regarding the Commentary's passage beginning with: 'Furthermore, the first is seen alike by ordinary beings and noble ones': the third is critical analysis in terms of faculties and perception. 'Only those on the stages' for the next one is because it is for the enjoyment of others. Above, the reward and transformation differ, while the latter is only for those of perfect faculties, which belongs to perfect fusion, without distinguishing before the stages or on the stages; hence it states 'yet it pervades the five positions'. These five positions are the three [levels of] worthies, the ten [stages of] nobles, and the two awakenings of equal and marvelous; among the six positions, the fruit position is simply excluded. If the ten faiths are unfolded, then equal awakening is excluded.
