大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔 84.58

84.58

Under the second [heading], illustrating through similes, there are first a general analysis, next an exposition following the text, and finally the reverse correlation with the ten clauses on the lack of causes. In the first part, there are two: first, narrating past general approvals, and then, from "now [our] interpretation has two [facets]" onward, presenting the present correct meaning. It promptly critiques ancient views by putting forward the present correctness, distinguishing the past to establish its error. Therein, first is the comprehensive [explanation], in which are two: first, a general explanation presenting the comprehensiveness. Comprehensiveness has two senses: first, comprehensiveness regarding cause and fruit; second, comprehensiveness in applying the similes to the various clauses. Then, from "relying on the correlated text" onward, citing proof to explain the comprehensiveness. The text has three sections: first, directly citing the text as proof that it comprehensively applies to bodhisattvas; second, from "moreover, not using as a simile" onward, conversely proving by principle that it appropriately applies comprehensively to bodhisattvas; third, from "moreover, in the correlated text" onward, directly citing textual proof that it comprehensively illustrates the various virtues.
