維摩經略疏 2.44

2.44

約教者，三藏佛心無習故，故名心淨。四禪四空觀練薰修，永離法愛，故名已度，但力無畏不能等照。通教佛心照極真諦之源，界內習盡，於諸禪定無礙自在，十力無畏一時照境，故名已度。別教緣修智顯自性清淨之心，十二品無明究竟永滅。《地持》明九種大禪，菩薩依第九清淨禪得大菩提果，出過清淨，故言已度。此約地前修自性禪。登地得一切禪，乃至等覺住清淨禪，斷十一品無明入重玄門，名清淨禪。佛果出過，故言已度。圓教六根清淨即自性禪，初發心住即一切禪，已究竟離虛妄、顯自性清淨之心，如是乃至清淨禪破四十一品無明，住無垢地。如來心淨，度此禪定登妙覺果，故言已度。故《金光明》云「是時如來遊於無量甚深法性，過諸菩薩所行清淨。」《瓔珞》明昔在華嚴明集八禪眾，即前八禪為說《華嚴》，得入清淨禪住無垢地。常徒舊解但取四禪四空，說《華嚴》時聲聞尚如聾啞，八禪外道何足可集？若約觀心，一心三觀，一一眾生心即如來心，本性清淨，故言心淨。能度事禪，故言已度。

In terms of the teachings: the Tripiṭaka buddha-mind has no residual habit-energies; therefore it is called "mind pure." Through the four dhyānas and four formless concentrations, practicing contemplation, smelting, perfuming, and cultivation, it is forever free from attachment to dharmas; therefore it is called "already crossed beyond." Yet its powers and fearlessnesses cannot illuminate equally. The Shared teaching buddha-mind illuminates the utmost source of the true truth, its habit-energies within the realms exhausted; it has unimpeded mastery in the various dhyāna concentrations, and its ten powers and fearlessnesses illuminate objects all at once; therefore it is called "already crossed beyond." In the Separate teaching, conditioned cultivation of wisdom reveals the mind of inherently pure nature, and the twelve grades of ignorance are ultimately and permanently extinguished. The Bodhisattvabhūmi explains nine kinds of great dhyānas; the bodhisattva, relying on the ninth, the pure dhyāna, attains the fruition of great bodhi, transcending the pure [dhyāna]; therefore it says "already crossed beyond." This refers to cultivating the inherent-nature dhyāna prior to the stages (bhūmis). Ascending the stages, one attains all dhyānas, up to equal awakening, where one abides in pure dhyāna, severing the eleventh grade of ignorance to enter the profound gate of multiple obscurities; this is called pure dhyāna. The buddha-fruition transcends this; therefore it says "already crossed beyond." In the Perfect teaching, the purity of the six faculties is itself inherent-nature dhyāna; the first dwelling of initial bodhicitta is itself all dhyānas, having already ultimately left falsehood behind and revealed the mind of inherently pure nature; and so on up to pure dhyāna breaking the forty-one grades of ignorance to abide in the stainless ground. The Tathāgata's mind is pure, crossing beyond these dhyāna concentrations to ascend to the fruition of wondrous awakening; therefore it says "already crossed beyond." Hence the Suvarṇaprabhāsa says: "At that time, the Tathāgata roamed in the immeasurable, extremely profound Dharma-nature, surpassing the purity practiced by all bodhisattvas." The Yingluo jing explains that in the past, in the Avataṃsaka assembly, those of the eight dhyānas were gathered, and for these eight dhyānas [the Buddha] expounded the Avataṃsaka, enabling them to enter pure dhyāna and abide in the stainless ground. Common scholars of old merely took this to mean the four dhyānas and four formless concentrations; yet when the Avataṃsaka was expounded, even the śrāvakas were like the deaf and mute—how could non-Buddhists of the eight dhyānas have been gathered? If in terms of contemplation of mind, with the single mind's threefold contemplation, the mind of each and every sentient being is itself the Tathāgata's mind, fundamentally pure in nature; therefore it says "mind pure." Being able to cross beyond phenomenal dhyāna, it is said to have "already crossed beyond."
