華嚴略疏卷第三 3.35

3.35

已說行校量。次顯果利益校量勝中有四種。一調柔果。二發趣果。三攝報果。四願智果。調柔利益勝者。金相似法。信等善法猶如真金等中有三。初法二喻三合喻。數數入火有三。一功德入供養佛僧故。二非心入教化眾生故。三無上果入願迴向大菩提故。大神通力見諸佛。以勝神通力見色身佛。大願力者。以因內正願力見法身佛。多百佛乃至那由他佛者。方便見多佛數故。供養三種如上。

Having explained the comparative superiority of practice, next [the text] reveals the comparative superiority of the benefits of the fruit, in which there are four kinds: (1) the fruit of pliancy; (2) the fruit of setting forth; (3) the fruit of received retribution; (4) the fruit of vow and knowledge. Regarding the superiority of the benefit of pliancy: the simile of gold. In 'wholesome dharmas such as faith are like genuine gold' and so forth, there are three parts: first, the doctrine; second, the simile; third, the application of the simile. Being repeatedly put into fire has three meanings: (1) entering via merit, because of making offerings to the Buddha and the Saṅgha; (2) entering via non-mind, because of teaching and transforming sentient beings; (3) entering via the unexcelled fruit, because of dedicating vows toward great bodhi. 'Seeing all Buddhas through great supernormal power': seeing physical-body Buddhas through superior supernormal power. 'Power of great vows': seeing dharmakāya Buddhas through the power of inner correct vows as cause. 'Many hundreds of Buddhas down to nayutas of Buddhas': because of seeing a number of many Buddhas through expedient means. The three kinds of offerings are as above.
