修華嚴奧旨妄盡還源觀 1.13

1.13

一者、海印森羅常住用。言海印者，真如本覺也。妄盡心澄，萬象齊現。猶如大海因風起浪，若風止息，海水澄清，無象不現。《起信論》云：無量功德藏，法性真如海。所以名為海印三昧也。《經》云：森羅及萬象，一法之所印。言一法者，所謂一心也。是心即攝一切世間出世間法，即是一法界大總相法門體，唯依妄念而有差別，若離妄念，唯一真如，故言海印三昧也。《華嚴經》云：「或現童男童女形，天龍及以阿脩羅，乃至摩睺羅伽等，隨其所樂悉令見。眾生形相各不同，行業音聲亦無量，如是一切皆能現，海印三昧威神力。」依此義故，名海印三昧也。

First, the function of the ocean-reflection wherein all phenomena abide permanently. Speaking of the 'ocean-reflection,' this is the innate enlightenment of tathatā. When delusions are exhausted and the mind is clear, the myriad phenomena appear all at once. It is like the great ocean raising waves because of the wind; if the wind ceases, the ocean water becomes clear and still, and no image fails to appear. The Awakening of Faith says: 'The treasury of immeasurable merits, the ocean of dharma-nature tathatā.' Therefore it is called the sāgaramudrā-samādhi. A sūtra says: 'All phenomena and the myriad images are sealed by a single dharma.' That 'single dharma' is what is called the One Mind. This mind subsumes all worldly and supramundane dharmas; it is the essence of the great universal-aspect teaching of the one dharma-realm. It is solely based on deluded thoughts that differences exist; if one is free of deluded thoughts, there is only the one tathatā. Therefore it is called the sāgaramudrā-samādhi. The Avataṃsaka Sūtra says: 'Manifesting the forms of boys or girls, / Devas, dragons, and asuras, / Even mahoragas and the like, / Causing them all to be seen according to their inclinations. / Sentient beings have distinct appearances; / Their karmic activities and voices are also immeasurable. / All such things are able to appear / Through the awesome spiritual power of the sāgaramudrā-samādhi.' Based on this meaning, it is called the sāgaramudrā-samādhi.
