No abstract given. Here is the first relevant paragraph:

The concept bodhicitta comes up frequently in Fa-tsang’s voluminous writings. That, however, would not make it exceptional since, like Vasubandhu, his Indian Buddhist model, Fa-tsang works with the full historical repertoire of Buddhist concepts. And although bodhicitta warrants an entire text named

in its honor—The Hua-yen Bodhicitta Treatise[2],—one would still be overstating the case to claim that this is a central concept for Fa-tsang. Nevertheless, as promised by Fa-tsang, no matter which part, even down to a speck of dust in the entire universe, the character of the whole can be seen clearly in this bodhicitta component.
