華嚴一乘教義分齊章 1.87

1.87

一者時異，謂此一乘要在初時第二七日說，猶如日出先照高山等。故論云「此示法勝，故在初時及勝處說也。」若爾，何故不初七日說？思惟因緣行等，如論釋。又此即是時因陀羅網等故，即攝一切時。若前若後各不可說劫，通前際後際，並攝在此一時中也。三乘等不爾，以隨逐機宜，時不定故。或前或後，亦不一時收一切劫等。

The first is distinction in time: namely, this One Vehicle is definitely preached at the initial time during the second seven-day period, like the rising sun first illuminating the high mountains, and so forth. Hence the treatise states, "This demonstrates the supremacy of the Dharma; therefore it is preached at the initial time and in the supreme place." If so, why was it not preached during the first seven-day period? It was due to contemplating conditions, practices, and the like, as explained in the treatise. Furthermore, because this is precisely the Indra's net of time and so on, it immediately subsumes all times. Whether before or after, each consists of inexpressible kalpas, spanning the past limit and future limit, and all are subsumed within this single time. The Three Vehicles and so on are not like this, because in following along with the appropriateness of capacities, their time is not fixed. Being either before or after, they also do not gather all kalpas into a single time, and so on.
