本書以山海天人的概念，彰顯華嚴的四法界觀。全書分為四大章，如下:
「山之章」對應於事法界，山之章的主要意象是靈鷲山，展現無盡莊嚴的華嚴聖山；而本章以心道法師覺悟的心，將生活俗世中的種種觀念賦予智慧的詮釋。

「海之章」對應於理事無礙法界，本章要點在於「心歸體性」，宣說修心法要，心歸體性，性由心顯，讓心佛無礙而互融，以彰顯修心法門之奧秘。

天之章，對應於理法界，本章要點在於「直指心性」、「直指法界」，是心道法師對於心性的詮釋與證悟的描述，對於無言的虛空法身起言說。

人之章，以心道法師開示菩薩法門為主，對應於事事無礙法界，以菩薩之事開覺眾生之心。
本書希望帶領讀者從外在的聖境風景到內在彰顯四法界觀，每則法語中英對照，透過心道法師的智慧珠璣，提供中英文世界的讀者，擁有清清朗朗、富足的心靈財富。

The book is comprised of four chapters including Mountain, Ocean, Space and People. Mountain corresponds to The Holy Mountain of Avatamsaka. From the sacred mountain of Huayan, entering the realm of reality; conventional truth is spoken in the realm of individual phenomena. Ocean refers to The Ocean of Vairocana Buddha Nature. Returning to the essence through the sea of Vairocana; Buddha is the realm of nonobstruction between principle and phenomena. Space represents The Space of Awareness. The universal Dharmakaya is ineffable; in the realm of the one principle the essential nature is emptiness itself. People will go for A Person with A Vow to Action. The vows of Samantabhadra span the three times; the realm of nonobstruction between phenomena—this is the Bodhisattva practice. Readers entering the four realms are expected to practice the universal compassionate action of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva.
