新華嚴經論 2.33

2.33

四者猶如大海一切諸龍魚等，同在海中而有出生。此經亦爾，能說一切眾生心海，一念之中有無量諸佛於諸眾生心海而興，出世成等正覺。如此經〈如來出現品〉云「佛子！菩薩摩訶薩應知自心念念常有佛成等正覺。何以故？諸佛如來不離此心成正覺故。如自心然，一切眾生心亦復如是。」

Fourth, just as in the great ocean all the dragons, fishes, and the like are together brought forth and born within the ocean, this sūtra is also like this: it can explain that within the ocean of the minds of all sentient beings, in a single thought-moment there are immeasurable Buddhas who arise in the ocean of sentient beings' minds, appear in the world, and attain equal and perfect awakening. As the 'Chapter on the Manifestation of the Tathāgata' in this sūtra states: 'Sons of the Buddha! A bodhisattva-mahāsattva should know that in his own mind, in thought-moment after thought-moment, there is always a Buddha attaining equal and perfect awakening. Why is this? Because the Buddhas, the Tathāgatas, do not depart from this mind in attaining perfect awakening. Just as it is with one's own mind, so it is with the minds of all sentient beings.'
