The Avatamsaka period is likened to the time when the sun is first rising,
for when the sun first rises it first illumines the high mountains.
The high mountains represent the great Bodhisattvas.
To examine its profound purport,
And then look into other Sutras:
It is like a sunrise glorious in the sky
Dimming multitudes of luminaries’ splendor;
Like Sumeru which spreads across the seas
Lowering retinues of peaks’ high altitudes.
Аз жаргал, хөгжил дэвшил, нинжин сэтгэл, энэрэн нигүүлсэхүй,
эрүүл энх гэх мэт сайн сайхан зүйлсээр өөртөө аз жаргалыг хүсч,
өөрийгөө зүрх сэтгэлийнхээ төвд байрлуулж,
тэдгээр мэдрэмжүүд ямар байгааг мэдэр.
The Flower Adornment Sutra is also like the sun,
which everywhere illumines the Great Thousand World-Realm,
bringing warmth to every single living being
In Buddhism, the "Rise of the moon" symbolizes the emergence of enlightenment and new beginnings, paralleling other natural phenomena like the blooming lily and rising sea, suggesting interconnectedness and the cyclical nature of existence.
The Buddha was born on a full moon day.
His renunciation took place on a full moon day.
His Enlightenment, the delivery of His first sermon,
His passing away into Nibbana and many other
important events associated with His life-span of eighty years,
occurred on full moon days.
