# 華嚴經旨歸 1.78

華嚴經旨歸 1.78

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.78](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1871.1.78)

三、即此華葉具無邊德，不可言一；融無二相，不可言多。此一即多、多復即一，一多無二，為一華葉。經云「知一即多、多即一」等。是謂第三一多門也。

> Third, this flower petal possesses boundless virtues, so it cannot be called one; it fuses without dual marks, so it cannot be called many. This one is precisely the many, and the many are also precisely the one; the one and the many are not two, constituting a single flower petal. As the sūtra says: "knowing the one to be precisely the many, and the many to be precisely the one," and so forth. This is called the third gate of the one and the many.
