Description
Book Introduction
In Volume 33 of the Avatamsaka Sutra, there are 25.
The Ten Chapters of the Buddhist Scriptures [11] are included.
25.
The Ten Directions [11] is a series of chapters in which the Bodhisattva Vajrapani preaches the ten directions of direction, and the content of the 10th, the Immeasurable Directions of the Equal Dharma Realm [等法界無量廻向], continues from Volume 33.
In particular, this volume explains the contents of the dedication to barley, the desire for the fruits of the offering to be perfect, the reason for the dedication, the benefits of the dedication, and its fruits.
Also, “At that time, by the power of the Buddha, the countless worlds of the Buddhas in each of the ten directions shook in six ways.
It consists of the content of shaking the earth to show auspicious signs, such as, “It shook, shook, shook, shook all over, all over shaking, shaking all over, rumbling, rumbling, rumbling all over, rumbling, rumbling all over, banging, banging all over, banging all over,” and arousing joy as countless bodhisattvas from millions of worlds testify to showing these auspicious signs. After Bodhisattva Vajrapani finished explaining the ten kinds of dedication, he revealed the fruits of dedication as follows, thus ending the lengthy “Ten Dedication Chapter.”
“At that time, the Bodhisattva Vajrapani, by receiving the Buddha’s divine power, observed all the great gatherings and dharma realms of the ten directions. He understood the text and its meaning well, cultivated a vast mind, and with great compassion, he widely covered all living beings, bound his mind, and comfortably abode in the dharma of the Buddhas of the three times. He entered into the dharma of all the Buddhas’ merits and achieved the free and undisturbed bodies of all Buddhas.”
It is said that Monk Wonhyo, after annotating the "Ten Chapters of the Hyanghwa" (60 volumes of the Avatamsaka Sutra), jumped into the crowd and practiced self-denial in order to personally dedicate it. This shows that among the levels of the Bodhisattva path, there is a practice of further diligent practice between the "Ten Chapters of the Hyanghwa" and the "Ten Grounds" that follows.
This is the 25th chapter of the 39 chapters of the Avatamsaka Sutra.
The Ten Incense Burners are finished and from Volume 34 onwards, there are 26.
The ten stages continue.

Publisher's Review
The Doksongbon includes both the original Chinese text and the Korean translation.
The original Chinese text is on the left side of the text, and the corresponding Korean translation is on the right side.
The original text in Chinese characters is the Joseon Dynasty version of the Tripitaka Koreana.
The Tripitaka Koreana was created relatively early, and many later editions of the Tripitaka Koreana and studies on it were reflected in the original text through repeated editions.
The scope of reflecting different contents in the original text and the issue of variant characters were based on the content of the symphony at the end of each volume of the Tripitaka Koreana, and while examining the content before and after the scriptures, other symphony versions were referenced, and the emphasis was placed on preserving the characteristics of the Tripitaka Koreana as much as possible. The phonetic transcriptions and the current translations added to the Chinese original text were based on the current translations of the original text and some were revised according to the translation. The Korean translation referred to existing translations and lectures, and for parts where interpretations and opinions differed, the content was delved into more deeply to reflect the interpretation of Monk Haeju.
It is the role of the practitioner who practices with the mind of Bodhi to resolve doubts that cannot be resolved through the teachings and lectures of the wise.
The driving force that deepens your studies lies entirely within yourself.
If you look at it with your eyes, read it out loud, and write it down phrase by phrase, at some point your writing skills will open and your eyes will open.
Translator's Note
Monk Haeju explains, “The Avatamsaka Sutra is a sutra that explains the Buddha world, the place Buddhists aspire to reach, and the various methods of liberation for reaching and adorning that Buddha world.”
The teachings of the Avatamsaka Sutra are said to be teachings that lead one to return to one's original place and to perfect the wisdom of living together with all beings in the world [安住世間成正覺].
It is said that all of this is the creation of the Buddha's wisdom mind [一切唯心造], and that it can be called the Haein (海印) as the adornment of liberation through the meritorious acts of the Bodhi mind (菩提心) that are manifested through faith.
Finally, regarding the publication of the 『Dabanggwangbul Avatamsaka Sutra in Chinese and Korean』 and the 『Dabanggwangbul Avatamsaka Sutra in Korean』, Venerable Haeju said, “I am grateful to the Buddha and Bodhisattva for their protection and the three-time karma that have enabled me to begin the Buddhist rite of distributing the Avatamsaka Sutra, and I hope that I can repay their kindness.
With everyone's help, we will publish all 80 volumes and work diligently to ensure that the publication of the Avatamsaka Sutra is successfully completed.
“I pray that the Avatamsaka Sutra will be widely distributed and that through the merits of reciting and copying the sutra, we can participate in the magnificence of liberation in the Avatamsaka Dharma realm.”
