新華嚴經論 28.9

28.9

第三段四智門中，長行三十六行經，分為三段。一從「佛子」已下至「而演說法」有兩行半經，明善巧智起四無礙智分。二「此菩薩常隨四無解智」至「樂說無礙智」可有兩行經，明是正舉四無礙智之名分。三「菩薩以此四無礙智」已下有三十一行半經，明四無礙智隨用差別無限分。此一段明此位為大法師之智用自在。云善能守護如來法藏者，三乘一乘三藏及仁義禮智信，並是菩薩善安立故。三藏者，戒定慧，通一切法藏故。用菩薩言詞而演說法者，明佛為正覺之體，無分別故，明如來所有出生滅度度眾生及轉法輪，總是菩薩道故。以下如文自明，各依四智所轉法輪皆有所歸，以法無礙智總辯法身平等自性之理，以義無礙智能辯諸法總別同異，以詞無礙智所說無錯謬，以樂說無礙智所說諸法無有斷盡。以如是四智轉一切法輪，不離此也。如阿耨池流出四河，潤諸世間生諸草木各有差別，而體不離一水四河。思之可見。

In the third section, the gate of the four wisdoms, there are thirty-six lines of prose, divided into three sections: First, from "Disciples of the Buddha" down to "expounds the Dharma" there are two and a half lines of sūtra text, explaining the division of skillful wisdom giving rise to the four unhindered wisdoms. Second, from "this bodhisattva constantly follows the four unhindered wisdoms" to "unhindered wisdom of delighted speech" there are about two lines of sūtra text, explaining the division directly presenting the names of the four unhindered wisdoms. Third, from "The bodhisattva, by means of these four unhindered wisdoms" downward there are thirty-one and a half lines of sūtra text, explaining the division of the limitless variations in the four unhindered wisdoms according to their application. This section explains that in this stage the bodhisattva's wise function as a great Dharma master is sovereign. Stating that they are adept at protecting the Tathāgata's treasury of Dharma means that the Three Vehicles, the One Vehicle, the three baskets (tripiṭaka), as well as benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness are all well established by the bodhisattva. The "three baskets" are morality, concentration, and wisdom, which pervade all Dharma treasuries. "Using the words of a bodhisattva to expound the Dharma" explains that the Buddha is the substance of perfect enlightenment, without discrimination; thus it explains that all of the Tathāgata's births, passings into extinction, salvations of sentient beings, and turnings of the wheel of the Dharma are entirely the Bodhisattva Path. Below, as the text itself clarifies, each turning of the wheel of the Dharma based on the four wisdoms has its destination: with the unhindered wisdom of phenomena, they generally discern the principle of the equal self-nature of the dharmakāya; with the unhindered wisdom of meaning, they can discern the general, specific, identical, and distinct aspects of all phenomena; with the unhindered wisdom of phrasing, what they speak is without error; with the unhindered wisdom of delighted speech, the teachings they speak are never exhausted. Turning all wheels of the Dharma with these four wisdoms is never apart from this. Just as four rivers flow from Lake Anavatapta, moistening the worlds and producing various grasses and trees with their distinct characteristics, yet their substance is not apart from the single water of the four rivers. One can understand this by contemplating it.
