Ratnagotravibhāga; Treatise of the Jewel-nature of Ultimate One] and the Pusa dichi jing 菩薩地持經 [Sūtra of Stages of Bodhisattvas]. These two scriptures played a very significant role in Fazang’s theory of tathatā 真如, especially his theory of Huayan xingqi 華嚴性起 (Arising of nature on Huayan). Similarly, Fazang’s theory of zhongxing 種姓 (Skt. gotra) used the Jiujing yisheng baoxing lun and the Pusa dichi jing as its foundation. Clearly, the Jiujing yisheng baoxing lun is one of the most important scriptures for understanding Fazang’s thought. As is widely known, Fazang is one of the most significant figures when discussing the origin and history of rulai zang yuanqi 如來 藏緣起 (dependent arising of Buddha essence) and zhenru yuanqi 真如緣起 (dependent arising of thusness) in Chinese Buddhist history. Therefore, Fazang’s quotations and explanations of the Jiujing yicheng baoxing lun are a necessary step towards the resolution of this difficult problem. The Sanskrit text of the Jiujing yicheng baoxing lun states that there is light of tathāgata (Rulai 如來; One Who Has Thus Come) in the bodies of beings including Mithyātva, which is a quote of the Zhi guangming zhuangyan jing 智光明莊嚴經 [Skt. Sarvabuddhaviṣayāvatārajñānālokālaṃkāra; Sūtra of Decorating Wisdom and Light]. In contrast, the classical Chinese translation clearly states that this is the quote of the Da Fangguang fo huayan jing 大方廣佛華嚴經 [Skt. Avataṃsaka sutra; Flower Garland Sūtra]. Fazang supported the standpoint of the classical Chinese translation of the Ratnagotravibhāga to demonstrate that the Avataṃsaka sūtra is the real resource and foundation of the xingqi 性起 (arising of nature) theory of his thoughts on Huayan 華嚴.","PeriodicalId":419872,"journal":{"name":"What Happened After Mañjuśrī Migrated to China?","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129364007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
