華嚴經內章門等雜孔目章 3.8

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [3.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870.3.8)

四法章者，即四堪智，一者緣、二者法、三者作、四者成。此之四智，與六相智類亦相似，但門有別。一緣者，即成法之緣。二法者，相應成法。三作者，謂緣能成也。四成者，謂了別成就。知法之智明了，緣起自在，故云堪。此義亦得通一乘及三乘。何以故？由此四堪智，於三乘中順離四謗及契中道故。此義如別章。

> The chapter on the four dharmas means the four capable cognitions: first, conditions; second, dharma; third, operation; fourth, accomplishment. These four cognitions are also similar in category to the cognitions of the six characteristics, yet their approaches differ. First, 'conditions' are the conditions that accomplish a dharma. Second, 'dharma' is what corresponds to accomplish the dharma. Third, 'operation' means that conditions are able to accomplish \[it\]. Fourth, 'accomplishment' means fully discerning realization. Because cognition knowing dharmas is clear and bright, and pratītyasamutpāda is unhindered, it is called 'capable'. This meaning also applies to both the Ekayāna and the Triyāna. Why is this? Because by means of these four capable cognitions, within the Triyāna one accords with being free from the four slanders and tallies with the Middle Way. The remaining meanings are as in the separate chapter.
