華嚴經內章門等雜孔目章 3.44

3.44

四無量者，一慈、二悲、三喜、四捨。無量緣三義：一眾生緣、二法緣、三無緣。眾生緣者，緣眾生起慈故。法緣者，緣薀等法起慈故。無緣者，緣法無我起慈故。喜捨亦然。此義在三乘小乘中即無，但有眾生緣。一乘義具足。何以故？緣生無盡故。若出體，小乘等智性，初教用後得智為體，終教用如理如量智為體。何以故？無分別智為菩薩體故。一乘義，無盡故、所知無邊故，曰無量。餘義如別章。

The four immeasurables are: first, loving-kindness; second, compassion; third, sympathetic joy; fourth, equanimity. The immeasurables take three conditions: first, conditioned by sentient beings; second, conditioned by dharmas; third, unconditioned. Conditioned by sentient beings means giving rise to loving-kindness conditioned by sentient beings. Conditioned by dharmas means giving rise to loving-kindness conditioned by dharmas such as the aggregates. Unconditioned means giving rise to loving-kindness conditioned by the selflessness of dharmas. Joy and equanimity are also like this. In the Triyāna and Hīnayāna, this [third] meaning does not exist, and there is only that conditioned by sentient beings. In the Ekayāna, the meanings are complete. Why? Because dependent arising is inexhaustible. If one identifies their substance: in the Hīnayāna, conventional cognition is their nature; the initial teaching takes subsequent cognition as their substance; the final teaching takes cognition as it is and cognition in its full extent as their substance. Why? Because non-conceptual cognition is the bodhisattva's substance. In the meaning of the Ekayāna, because of being inexhaustible and because the knowable is boundless, they are called immeasurable. The remaining meanings are as in the separate chapter.
