阿彌陀經通贊疏 2.93

2.93

贊曰：第八風吹樂音也。文分為四：一、風搖寶樹；二、聲似樂音；三、聞興善念；四、結成莊嚴。此初二文也。微風者，細風也，非猝暴風也，吹樹及網羅即發微妙音韻。譬如者，譬者況也，如由似也，況似於百千種音樂同時俱奏也。細風徐起吹樹網羅，音韻而遍滿十方，雅妙而便同眾樂，故云譬如百千種樂同時俱作也。

Praise: Eighth, the musical sounds blown by the wind. The text is divided into four parts: 1. The wind stirring the jeweled trees; 2. The sounds resembling musical tones; 3. Good thoughts arising upon hearing them; 4. Concluding the adornment. These are the first two passages. 'Gentle breeze' means a delicate wind, not a sudden violent gale; when blowing upon the trees and nets, it immediately brings forth subtle and wondrous melodic sounds. 'Like' (pi ru): pi means comparing, and ru means resembling; it compares it to a hundred thousand kinds of music being played together at the same time. The delicate wind rises gently and blows upon the trees and nets; the melodies pervade the ten directions, elegant and wondrous, instantly matching an ensemble of music; therefore it says: "like a hundred thousand kinds of music playing together at the same time."'
