La escritura se llama de varias maneras y el volumen las enumera en la primera línea de la Introduction: «THE FLOWER ORNAMENT SCRIPTURE, called Avatamsaka in Sanskrit and Huayan in Chinese, is one of the major texts of Buddhism.» «The Flower Ornament Scripture, el Avatamsaka Sutra completo (tr. Thomas Cleary, Shambhala, 1993) · p. 8». Cleary le añade un segundo nombre y una estimación: «Also referred to as the major Scripture of Inconceivable Liberation, it is perhaps the richest and most grandiose of all Buddhist scriptures, held in high esteem by all schools of Buddhism that are concerned with universal liberation.» «The Flower Ornament Scripture, el Avatamsaka Sutra completo (tr. Thomas Cleary, Shambhala, 1993) · p. 8». La solapa editorial de Shambhala añade el nombre japonés y el alcance que le atribuye: «the Avatamsaka Sutra, or Flower Ornament Scripture, is held in the highest regard and studied by Buddhists of all traditions. Through its structure and symbolism, as well as through its concisely stated principles, it conveys a vast range of Buddhist teachings.» «The Flower Ornament Scripture, el Avatamsaka Sutra completo (tr. Thomas Cleary, Shambhala, 1993) · p. 2» —en la misma plana el impreso da la forma china *Hua-yen* y la japonesa *Kegon-kyo*, esta última partida por el salto de renglón—.

El volumen no adjudica autor a la escritura y lo dice en una sola frase: «It is not known when or by whom this scripture was composed.» «The Flower Ornament Scripture, el Avatamsaka Sutra completo (tr. Thomas Cleary, Shambhala, 1993) · p. 8». Lo que ofrece en su lugar es conjetura declarada como tal: «It is thought to have issued from different hands in the Indian cultural sphere during the first and second centuries AD, but it is written so as to embrace a broad spectrum of materials and resists rigid systematization.» «The Flower Ornament Scripture, el Avatamsaka Sutra completo (tr. Thomas Cleary, Shambhala, 1993) · p. 8».

El texto que se traduce no es un original sánscrito sino una de las dos versiones chinas comprensivas, y Cleary dice cuál y por qué: «The first comprehensive translation of The Flower Ornament Scripture was done under the direction of an Indian monk named Buddhabhadra (359–429); the second, under the direction of a Khotanese monk named Shikshananda (652– 710). The latter version, from which the present English translation is made, was based on a more complete text imported from Khotan at the request of the empress of China;» «The Flower Ornament Scripture, el Avatamsaka Sutra completo (tr. Thomas Cleary, Shambhala, 1993) · p. 9» —la cifra 710 va partida por el salto de renglón en el impreso—.

Thomas Cleary, Shambhala, 1993) · p. 10».

Lo que sigue a la Introduction son los treinta y nueve libros del sutra, y tras ellos el aparato que el Contents enumera: «Appendix 1: Technical Terminology and Symbolism in The Flower Ornament Scripture Appendix 2: Amplifications of Book 39 Appendix 3: Commentary on Book 39 by Li Tongxuan Glossary E-mail Sign-Up» «The Flower Ornament Scripture, el Avatamsaka Sutra completo (tr.

«Historicity as such is certainly of little account in The Flower Ornament Scripture. This is generally true of the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures, although they usually present their teachings as having been revealed or occasioned by the meditations of the historical Buddha Shakyamuni.»Cleary sostiene que la historicidad cuenta poco en el sutra, como en las escrituras mahayana en general, aunque estas suelan presentar su enseñanza como revelada por el Buda histórico Shakyamuni

«The Flower Ornament Scripture presents a compendium of Buddhist teachings; it could variously be said with a measure of truth in each case that these teachings are set forth in a system, in a plurality of systems, and without a system.

«done by transhistorical, symbolic beings who represent aspects of universal enlightenment. The Buddha shifts from an individual to a cosmic principle and manifestations of that cosmic principle; the “Buddha” in one line might be “the Buddhas” in the next, representing enlightenment itself, the scope of enlightenment, or those who have realized enlightenment.»tesis de Cleary sobre el texto, que en el impreso empieza en la plana anterior con *most of the discourse is*: casi todo el discurso del sutra corre a cargo de seres simbólicos y transhistóricos que representan aspectos de la iluminación universal, y el Buda pasa de individuo a principio cósmico, de modo que el singular de un renglón es el plural del siguiente

«Certainly one of the most colorful and dramatic rehearsals of Buddhist teachings, The Flower Ornament Scripture became one of the pillars of East Asian Buddhism. It was a source of some of the very first Buddhist literature to be introduced to China, where there eventually developed a major school of philosophy based on its teachings. This school spread to other parts of Asia, interacted with other major Buddhist schools, and continues to the present. The appreciation of The Flower Ornament Scripture was not, however, by any means confined to the special Flower Ornament school, and its influence is particularly noticeable in the literature of the powerful Chan (Zen) schools.»Cleary sitúa la recepción del sutra: pilar del budismo de Asia oriental, origen de una escuela de filosofía en China y presencia marcada en la literatura de las escuelas Chan, que él glosa como Zen

«The scriptures containing the precepts of the lesser vehicle are based on conceptual existence.

«As for keeping precepts in The Flower Ornament Scripture, it is not this way: as it says in the scripture, “Is the body religious practice? Are walking, standing, sitting, or reclining religious practice?” and so on, examining closely in search of “religious practice,” ultimately finding it cannot be apprehended—this ungraspability is why it is called pure religious practice.»Li Tongxuan, en la versión libre que Cleary hace de su Discourse on the Flower Ornament, opone a eso la disciplina del Avatamsaka: la práctica religiosa se busca en el cuerpo, en el andar, el estar de pie, el sentarse y el recostarse, y no se deja aprehender, y esa inaprehensibilidad es lo que la hace pura

«Because they keep the discipline of buddha-nature, they are equal to the essence of Buddha, equal in terms of noumenon and phenomenon, merging with the cosmos of reality.»Li Tongxuan, en la versión libre que Cleary hace de su Discourse on the Flower Ornament, saca la consecuencia: quien guarda la disciplina de la naturaleza de buda queda igualado a la esencia del Buda, en noúmeno y en fenómeno, fundido con el cosmos de la realidad

«When they keep discipline this way, they do not see themselves keeping precepts, they do not see others breaking precepts. Their action is neither that of ordinary people nor that of saints. They do not see themselves arousing the determination for enlightenment, they do not see the Buddhas attaining enlightenment.»Li Tongxuan, en la versión libre que Cleary hace de su Discourse on the Flower Ornament, describe el modo de esa disciplina por lo que en ella no se ve: ni uno mismo guardando el precepto, ni otros quebrándolo, ni uno mismo despertando la determinación, ni a los budas alcanzando la iluminación

«the Buddha says Vairocana is the fundamental body, with ten billion emanation bodies. To suddenly cause us to recognize the branches and return to the root, the scripture says these ten billion bodies bring innumerable beings to the Buddha. It also says if people accept the precepts of Buddha, they then enter the ranks of Buddhas: their rank is already the same as great enlightenment and they are true offspring of Buddha.»Li Tongxuan, en la versión libre que Cleary hace de su Discourse on the Flower Ornament, expone el Brahmajala: Vairocana como cuerpo fundamental con diez mil millones de cuerpos de emanación, y la aceptación de los preceptos como entrada en el rango de los budas

«In the Brahmajala Scripture, by following the teaching of the emanation bodies of Buddha we arrive at the original body: in the school of the complete teaching of the Flower Ornament, the original body is shown all at once; the fundamental realm of reality, the body of rewards of great knowledge, cause and effect, and noumenon and phenomena are equally revealed.»Li Tongxuan, en la versión libre que Cleary hace de su Discourse on the Flower Ornament, marca la diferencia entre las dos vías: en el Brahmajala se llega al cuerpo original siguiendo los cuerpos de emanación, y en la enseñanza completa del Flower Ornament el cuerpo original se muestra de una sola vez

«As for the Prajnaparamita Scriptures, they are based on explaining emptiness in order to show the truth. When the Buddha first expounded the teachings of the lesser vehicle to people, they stuck to principles and phenomena as both real, and therefore could not get rid of obstruction. Therefore Buddha explained emptiness to them, to break down their attachments. That is why it explains eighteen kinds of emptiness in the Prajnaparamita Scriptures—the world, the three treasures (the Buddha, the Teaching, and the Community), the four truths (suffering, origin, extinction, the path), the three times (past, present, and future), and so on, are all empty, and emptiness itself is empty too.»Li Tongxuan, en la versión libre que Cleary hace de su Discourse on the Flower Ornament, resume el Prajnaparamita por sus dieciocho vacuidades, que alcanzan al mundo, a los tres tesoros, a las cuatro verdades y a los tres tiempos, y también a la vacuidad misma

«Therefore attainment of buddhahood in the present means equality with all Buddhas of past, present, and future: consequently there is no past, present, or future—no time.»Li Tongxuan, en la versión libre que Cleary hace de su Discourse on the Flower Ornament, saca de esa igualdad la abolición del tiempo: alcanzar la budeidad ahora es ser igual a todos los budas de los tres tiempos, y entonces no hay tres tiempos

«and existence are not applied singly—noumenon and phenomena, emptiness and existence, interpenetrate, reflecting each other.

All the sayings in the scripture point to the same thing—when one becomes all become, when one disintegrates all disintegrate.»Li Tongxuan, en la versión libre que Cleary hace de su Discourse on the Flower Ornament, enuncia la interpenetración como rasgo propio del Avatamsaka: noúmeno y fenómeno, vacuidad y existencia se reflejan unos en otros, todos los libros del sutra se interpenetran y cuando uno deviene devienen todos; el tramo arranca en la plana 13, donde la frase viene cortada desde la 12 en *emptiness*

«Now as for the Sandhinirmocana Scripture, this is based on nonvoidness and nonexistence.

«While the Sandhinirmocana Scripture in this way lets us know, in terms of consciousness, that emptiness and existence are nondual, The Flower Ornament Scripture is not like this: The Flower Ornament just reveals the Buddha’s essence and function of fundamental knowledge of the one reality, the fundamental body, the fundamental cosmos.»Li Tongxuan, en la versión libre de Cleary, marca la diferencia: donde el Sandhinirmocana hace no duales la vacuidad y la existencia en términos de consciencia, el Avatamsaka revela sin rodeo la esencia del Buda y el conocimiento fundamental de la realidad una

«The three natures are the nature of mere imagination, the nature of relative existence, and the nature of absolute emptiness: the imaginary nature means the characteristics of things as we conceive of them are mere descriptions, projections of the imagination; the relative nature means that things exist in terms of the relation of sense faculties, sense data, and sense consciousness; the absolute nature means that the imaginary and relative natures are not in themselves ultimately real.»Li Tongxuan, en la versión libre de Cleary, define las tres naturalezas del Lankavatara: la imaginaria como mera descripción y proyección, la relativa como existencia en la relación de facultad, dato y consciencia, y la absoluta como el no ser últimamente reales de las dos primeras

«These miraculous powers are just shown for the benefit of disciples and enlightening beings who are temporarily studying the three vehicles. Why? Because disciples and enlightening beings studying the temporary teachings do not yet see the Way truly, and have not yet forgotten the distinction of self and other. The miracles shown are based on the perception of the sense faculties, and all have coming and going, boundaries and limits. Also they are a temporary device of a sage, intended to arouse those of small faculties by producing miracles through spiritual powers, to induce them to progress further. Therefore they are not spontaneous powers.»Li Tongxuan, en la versión libre de Cleary, descalifica esos prodigios como recurso provisional: se muestran a quienes aún estudian los tres vehículos y no han olvidado la distinción entre uno y otro, de modo que no son poderes espontáneos

Secreto (lo que se jura no fijar por escrito)el volumen trae dos lecturas que se consignan sin armonizar: en la Introduction, Cleary explica lo inaccesible de ciertas partes de la enseñanza sin apelar al esoterismo (su reino queda fuera del sistema de supuestos de la convención común) y el texto niega que la enseñanza se oculte, con los de los tres vehículos como sordos que no oyen; en los libros 37 a 39 el sutra llama a la enseñanza el punto secreto de los budas y le niega el auditorio a los vehículos menores, responde por los dichos esotéricos hábiles y por la disciplina pura de protección secreta, calla ante el no maduro, y hace que los grandes discípulos no vean la transfiguración del Buda estando delante.

Imaginación (phantasia)el volumen declara un uso del sutra como modelo de visualización, con la práctica de imaginar cada partícula del propio cuerpo como una tierra de buda y hacer entrar en ellas a todos los seres del universo.

Gnosis (conocimiento salvífico)el libro 10 pone el conocimiento de los budas fuera de la consciencia sensorial y fuera de la esfera de la mente, con su naturaleza fundamentalmente pura, y el libro 9 niega que quien vea al Despierto como alguien que llega a liberarse haya realizado el ojo de la Vía.

Talismán (imagen astrológica)el libro 19 cuenta entre los adornos del trono del Buda cien billones de talismanes de joya capaces de quitar todos los males, sin explicar cómo obran ni prescribir su uso.

Necromancia (nigromancia)el libro 27 usa como símil el cadáver que se levanta y obra por la fuerza de un conjuro, y observa que el cadáver y el conjuro son distintos y aun así se juntan y hacen cosas; el sutra no describe la práctica ni la recomienda, solo la da por conocida del lector.

Cuatro elementos (fuego, aire, agua, tierra)tierra, agua, fuego y aire corren por todo el tramo como serie fija: el libro 15 los pone entre las contemplaciones de la tercera morada, el libro 26 mide su límite y su infinitud átomo por átomo, el 27 entra por el elemento agua de los mares y sale por el de tierra, y el 33 dice que los budas hacen obra de buda por medio de ellos.

Cadena de transmisión (quién tomó de quién)el libro 39 arma la vía como una cadena de maestros que se pasan al discípulo: cada uno declara el límite de su saber y manda al siguiente, Manjushri la abre con la fórmula de la pregunta, Maitreya atribuye el viaje entero a Manjushri, y Li Tongxuan explica en el apéndice 3 que el amigo espiritual alaba siempre al que todavía no se ha visitado y que el maestro ejemplar no instruye en persona sino que deriva al ayudante.

Prodigio (prodigium, portentum, ostentum)el libro 39 hace que los grandes discípulos no vean la transfiguración del Buda estando delante, y Li Tongxuan, en el apéndice 3, niega realidad a las visiones buscadas a la fuerza, las llama alucinaciones pasajeras y no budas, y lee los avisos previos a la visión de Maya como principios y no como sucesos.

Philosophia perennis (filosofía perenne)Cleary, en su introducción al apéndice 3, conjetura para el sutra una asociación esotérica a la manera de las Abejas sarmoun, rama interior de los Designers, y junta esa conjetura con lo que el sutra sostiene de sí mismo, que la enseñanza verdadera está en todas las culturas y todas las fes; compara además a Samantabhadra con la Asamblea de los Santos de los sufíes y con el Gobierno Celeste de los daoístas, y Li Tongxuan mete a los sabios confucianos y daoístas en la categoría del maestro que se asimila a lo ajeno.
