華嚴法界玄鏡 2.2

2.2

The contemplation states: Next, viewing principle from phenomena, there are also four propositions: 1. Because phenomenal dharmas and principle are not different, a single dust particle completely encompasses the nature of principle. 2. Because phenomenal dharmas and principle are not identical, it does not destroy the single dust particle. 3. Because non-identity is precisely non-difference, a single small dust particle encompasses the boundless true principle. 4. Because non-difference is precisely non-identity, while encompassing the boundless principle, the dust particle is not large. Contemplate this.
