新華嚴經論 6.16

6.16

第四明成佛同別者，夫智身寥廓，總萬像以成軀；萬像無形，與智身而齊體。違真相隔，得本形同。只為乖本相殊，致使化儀各別，或見形羸道樹，藉草褥之微軀；或見色究竟天處蓮華之妙相，或見寶菩提樹居淨土以成真；或見遠劫修行，或見剎那當證；或見報身圓滿相海無邊，或見化體分身具三十二相。如是殊形異狀遍通含識，以情根萬別千差，言何能悉？且約人天共感四乘權實之流，略作十門成道差別，使得童蒙起信發解、除疑識本，離權情、希勝德。十門者，第一成佛身別、第二成佛時別、第三菩提樹別、第四所坐座別、第五大眾別、第六示相別、第七轉法輪別、第八轉法輪處別、第九大會莊嚴別、第十所受法門別。

Fourth, explaining the similarities and differences in attaining buddhahood: The wisdom body is vast and boundless, encompassing the ten thousand phenomena to form its body; the ten thousand phenomena are formless, of identical essence with the wisdom body. Straying from the real, they are mutually separated; attaining the origin, their forms are identical. Merely because turning away from the origin causes characteristics to differ, the forms of transformation are each distinct: one may see a frail form beneath the tree of awakening, a diminutive body resting upon a grass mat; or one may see the wondrous mark of dwelling on a lotus in Akaniṣṭha Heaven; or one may see the jewel bodhi tree residing in a pure land to realize reality; or one may see cultivation through distant kalpas; or one may see realization in a single instant (kṣaṇa); or one may see the saṃbhogakāya perfected with a boundless ocean of marks; or one may see the nirmāṇakāya dividing its body, endowed with the thirty-two marks. Such distinct forms and extraordinary appearances pervade sentient beings; since the emotional faculties have ten thousand distinctions and a thousand differences, how could words fully describe them? Now, briefly addressing the stream of provisional and ultimate [teachings] of the four vehicles as commonly experienced by humans and devas, I will briefly formulate ten gates on the differences in attaining the path, so as to enable beginners to arouse faith and develop understanding, eliminate doubt and recognize the origin, depart from provisional sentiments, and aspire to superior virtue. The ten gates are: first, the difference in the body that attains buddhahood; second, the difference in the time of attaining buddhahood; third, the difference in the bodhi tree; fourth, the difference in the seat sat upon; fifth, the difference in the great assembly; sixth, the difference in manifesting marks; seventh, the difference in turning the wheel of Dharma; eighth, the difference in the place of turning the wheel of Dharma; ninth, the difference in the adornment of the great congregation; and tenth, the difference in the Dharma gates received.
