華嚴經旨歸 1.71

1.71

Tenth, as for the Consummate Sūtra: all the above versions are completely fused into a single inexhaustible great ocean of sūtras. In any single assembly, single chapter, single text, or single sentence within it, all are fully gathered, and each sentence completely enters all, because the universal Dharma is without delimitation, because the consummate teaching is rationally so, because Indra's net is without boundary, and because the Buddha's boundless realm of conversion is exhausted. A verse in the "Rocana Chapter" says: / "Within the subtle atoms of all Buddha-lands, / Rocana manifests his sovereign power, / The ocean of his vast vows resounds with voice, / Taming all kinds of sentient beings." / Furthermore, in the "Dharmadhātu Chapter" it is called the Sūtra of Consummate Causes and Conditions; this is what is meant. The inexhaustible ocean of teachings should be understood in this way.
