華嚴法界玄鏡 1.52

1.52

The contemplation states: 2. The gate of phenomena pervading principle: this means that the pervading phenomena have boundaries and limits, whereas the pervaded principle must have no boundaries or limits. These phenomena that have boundaries and limits are completely identical, not partially identical, to the principle that has no boundaries or limits. Why is this? Because phenomena have no self-essence and revert to being like principle. Therefore, without being destroyed, a single dust particle pervades the dharmadhātu. As with a single dust particle, so it is with all dharmas. Contemplate this.
