摩訶止觀 1.26

1.26

《華嚴》曰：「娑伽羅龍車軸雨海，餘地不堪。」為上根性說圓滿修多羅，二乘如聾如瘂。《淨名》曰：「入瞻蔔林不嗅餘香，入此室者但聞諸佛功德之香。」《首楞嚴》曰：「擣萬種香為丸，若燒一塵具足眾氣。」《大品》曰：「以一切種智知一切法，當學般若波羅蜜。」《法華》曰：「合掌以敬心，欲聞具足道。」《大經》曰：「譬如有人在大海浴，當知是人已用諸河之水。」《華嚴》曰：「譬如日出，先照高山，次照幽谷，次照平地。」平地，不定也；幽谷，漸也；高山，頓也。

The Avataṃsaka-sūtra says: "The ocean rain poured by the Sāgara dragon king like cart axles cannot be borne by other lands." For those of superior capacities, it expounds the perfect and full sūtra, while those of the two vehicles are as if deaf and mute. The Vimalakīrtinirdeśa says: "One who enters a campaka forest does not smell other scents; one who enters this room smells only the fragrance of the virtues of the Buddhas." The Śūraṅgamasamādhi-sūtra says: "Pounding ten thousand kinds of incense into a pellet, if a single grain is burned, it contains all the aromas." The Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā-prajñāpāramitā says: "To know all phenomena through sarvākārajñatā, one should train in the prajñāpāramitā." The Lotus Sutra says: "Joining their palms with reverent minds, they wish to hear the complete path." The Mahāparinirvāṇa-sūtra says: "It is like a person bathing in the great ocean: know that this person has already made use of the waters of all rivers." The Avataṃsaka-sūtra says: "It is like the rising sun: it first illuminates the high mountains, next illuminates the deep ravines, and next illuminates the flat plains." The flat plains represent the indeterminate; the deep ravines, the gradual; and the high mountains, the sudden.
