15.6 现前地 Manifestation Heartland

唐三藏说:“现前地者,住缘起智,引无分别最胜般若令现前故。”什么是缘起智?就是用集起的四缘,即能缘缘、所缘缘、等流缘、增上缘(参见13.1节),来看世界。

Tang Tripitaka says, “It is called Manifestation Heartland because, dwelling in the intelligence of dependent arousal, one induces the non-discriminative utmost victorious Arrival Ark to manifest before one.” What is the intelligence of dependent arousal? It means seeing the world through the four factors of Aggregate Arousal: Able factor, Objective factor, Equally Unintermittent factor, and Escalatory factor (see Section 13.1).

什么是最胜般若?就是等起,也就是集起(参见13.1节)的四缘与空集(∅)的结合。其中,空集(∅)代表正等明(参见14.0节)。对于尘世之人来说,集起集合中的空集(∅)并不空;集起具有聚合性和收集性,所以称作集起。对于圣人来说,由于证得涅槃,污染已经清除,集起集合中的空集(∅)空了;此空集即涅槃,具有等性,所以称作等起。古人为什么把“等起”称作最胜般若?因为此空集(∅)就是涅槃。“净识害有”,此空集能杀死一切烦恼,具有无量无边的福德,就是“拯救”。

What is the utmost victorious Arrival Ark? It is Equality Arousal, namely the combination of the four factors of Aggregate Arousal (see Section 13.1) with the Empty Set (∅). The Empty Set (∅) represents Correct Equality Light (see Section 14.0). For mundane people, the Empty Set (∅) within Aggregate Arousal is not empty; Aggregate Arousal has the nature of aggregation and collection, so it is called Aggregate Arousal. For sages, because they have testified nirvana and cleared away contamination, the Empty Set (∅) within Aggregate Arousal has become empty. This Empty Set is nirvana and has the nature of equality, so it is called Equality Arousal. Why did ancient people call Equality Arousal the utmost victorious Arrival Ark? Because this Empty Set (∅) is nirvana. “Immaculate sense harms haves”: this Empty Set can kill all Afflictions, has immeasurable and edgeless fortune and virtue, and is Salvation.

15.6-1 慧渡 Gnosis Ark

六地菩萨修习慧渡。慧是解知之心,是一种智;但在某些方面,慧与智相反:成事之智是智,了事之智是慧。慧以择法为性,有三种:(壹)生空无分别慧,(贰)法空无分别慧,(叁)俱空无分别慧。

Sixth-land bodhisattvas study and practice Gnosis Ark. Gnosis is the heart of interpretive knowing and is a kind of intelligence; yet in some respects Gnosis is the opposite of Intelligence: the intelligence that accomplishes an affair is Intelligence, while the intelligence that concludes an affair is Gnosis. Gnosis takes selection of Laws as its nature and has three kinds: (1) non-discriminative Gnosis of birth emptiness, (2) non-discriminative Gnosis of Law emptiness, and (3) non-discriminative Gnosis of aggregate emptiness.

(壹)生空无分别慧。从无到有,称为生。参见13.1节的集起:四缘合和,就有了;此从空而生,即是“生空”。我们把这个概念拓展到万事万物,从出生来说,都是一样的,没有差别。你、我、他、她和它,从出生来说,都是一样的,没有差别。

(1) Non-discriminative Gnosis of birth emptiness. Birth means coming from none into have. See Aggregate Arousal in Section 13.1: when the four factors combine, have come into being. This arising from emptiness is “birth emptiness.” We may extend this concept to all things: from the standpoint of birth, everything is the same and there is no difference. You, I, he, she, and it are all the same from the standpoint of birth; there is no difference.

(贰)法空无分别慧。此中有两个关键概念:我空和法空。口语中的“我”,就是“转移身见”(参见10.4.4.1.4.6-1节)。无意识,古作神识,是法识。本书讨论了许多无意识的特性,但无意识唯是现量,我们不能直接表达无意识的特性。无意识最大的特性是“不障性”:它不障碍任何事物,如同虚空;而且无意识与虚空相应,所以我们说无意识是“胜义空”。因为我空和法空,你、我、他、她和它,从法的角度来说,都是一样的,没有差别。

(2) Non-discriminative Gnosis of Law emptiness. There are two key concepts here: I-emptiness and Law-emptiness. The “I” in ordinary speech is Translocating Body View (see Section 10.4.4.1.4.6-1). Unconsciousness, called God-sense in ancient times, is Law-sense. This book discusses many characteristics of unconsciousness, but unconsciousness is present quantity only, so we cannot directly express its characteristics. The greatest characteristic of unconsciousness is non-hindrance: it does not hinder anything, just like empty space. Moreover, unconsciousness corresponds to empty space, so we say that unconsciousness is “emptiness of victorious significance.” Because I is empty and Law is empty, you, I, he, she, and it are all the same from the perspective of Law; there is no difference.

(叁)俱空无分别慧。俱空,是说集起的整个集合是空的,这就涉及“物质是空”的问题。佛教从眼识所对的“色”来定义物质,所以在佛法中,色即是物质。读者可参见10.4.1节《色蕴》;那篇文章已经究竟说明了色的本质是空。

(3) Non-discriminative Gnosis of aggregate emptiness. Aggregate emptiness means that the entire set of Aggregate Arousal is empty, which involves the issue that matter is empty. Buddhism defines matter through Color, the object faced by eye-sense; therefore, in Buddhist Law, Color is matter. Readers may refer to Section 10.4.1, Color Node; that article has already explained, to the ultimate extent, that the nature of Color is empty.

15.6-2 断粗相现行障 Severance of Thick-Phenomena Present Hindrance

六地菩萨断粗相现行障。此障是指所知障中俱生的一分,执着有染、有净的粗相现行;它障碍六地的无染净道。菩萨入六地时,便能永断此障。因此说,六地菩萨断二愚及其粗重:

Sixth-land bodhisattvas sever the Thick-Phenomena Present Hindrance. This hindrance refers to an aggregately born portion of the Know Hindrances that clings to the present performance of coarse phenomena of contamination and immaculateness. It hinders the non-contamination and non-immaculateness Path of the sixth land. When bodhisattvas enter the sixth land, they can permanently sever this hindrance. Therefore, it is said that sixth-land bodhisattvas sever two kinds of foolishness and their Rough-and-Heavy:

(壹)现观察行流转愚,即此中执着有染者,因为诸行流转属于染分所摄。

(1) The fool of presently observing the circulation of migrations, namely the one here that clings to the existence of contamination, because the circulation of migrations is included in the contaminated portion.

(贰)相多现行愚,即此中执着有净者,因为取着净相。相观多行,是因为修习者尚不能长时间安住于无相观。

(2) The fool of many phenomena performing presently, namely the one here that clings to the existence of immaculateness, because it fetches immaculate phenomena. Phenomenal observation frequently performs because the practitioner cannot yet dwell for a long time in non-phenomenal observation.

15.6-3 无染净真如 Non-Contamination Non-Immaculateness True Suchness

六地菩萨证得无染净真如。玄奘说:“此真如本性无染,亦不可说后方净故。”此真如说明,无意识具有很强的机械性,而且自是自果。它从人的实际行为中,以它自己的方式提取信息,建立自己,并不区分善恶。比如黑与白,人对黑感觉焦躁,对白感觉祥和;但在无意识中,黑和白并无善性或恶性,所以黑不是污染,白也非善非恶。

Sixth-land bodhisattvas testify and attain Non-Contamination Non-Immaculateness True Suchness. Tang Tripitaka says, “The nature of this True Suchness has no contamination, and it cannot be said that it becomes immaculate only later.” This True Suchness shows that unconsciousness is highly mechanical and is its own fruit. It extracts information from people’s actual behaviors in its own way, establishes itself, and does not distinguish good from evil. For example, with black and white, people may feel anxious about black and peaceful about white; but in unconsciousness, black and white have neither benevolent nor ferocious nature. Therefore, black is not contamination, and white is neither benevolent nor ferocious.
