# 入楞伽心玄義 1.41

入楞伽心玄義 1.41

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.41](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1790.1.41)

二、指事辨者，有二義：此摩羅耶山居南海中，孤峙削成，故名險絕。二、山頂有城，迴無門戶，名為難入。非直山無入路，亦乃城絕戶扉，唯有神通者飛空下入方預其中，故名此城以為難入。佛及大眾應機降跡，故名為入，即從天及處用以題名。羅剎居中，復名可畏。眾寶校飾，復曰莊嚴。

> Second, concerning indicating the matter, there are two senses. This Mount Malaya is situated in the Southern Sea, standing isolated and sheer; hence it is named precipitously insurmountable. Second, at the mountain summit there is a city, devoid of gates or doors on all sides; hence it is named difficult to enter. Not only does the mountain lack an access path, but the city also lacks doors and gates. Only those with supernatural powers who fly through the air and descend into it can take part therein; hence this city is named difficult to enter. The Buddha and the great assembly, responding to the capacities of beings, descended in their traces; hence it is named entering, taking its title from both the persons and the function of the place. Rākṣasas dwell within it, so it is further named terrifying. Being adorned with myriad jewels, it is also called magnificent.
