四、明麁妙者，若言神通度物，非但變己身同其正報，亦變己國土同其依報。如《纓珞》云：「起一切國土應，起一切眾生應」也。若應同正報者，即是示為十法界像也；若應同依報者，即是同十界所依處也。若應同四惡趣者，用觀惡業慈悲熏無記化化禪，應作地獄等形質：黑髮纏身、猴猨鹿馬、大鷲鵽鳥、脩羅等像，各各皆見，同其事業。若應人天身者，是用觀善業中慈悲熏無記化化禪，作善道身：如後身菩薩，正慧託胎，墮地七步，盥洗手足，楊枝自淨，納妃生子，厭世出家，乃至天像亦復如是，各各皆見，同其事業。若應作三藏二乘者，是用析空慈悲熏無記化化禪：起老比丘像，共僧布薩律儀規矩，各各皆見同其事業。若應通教者，是用即空慈悲熏無記化化禪，作體法應：觀無生習、應苦空等，悉不可得，各各皆見，同其事業。

> Fourth, clarifying the crude and the wondrous: if one speaks of saving beings through spiritual penetrations, not only does one transform one's own body to match their direct retributions, one also transforms one's own realm to match their dependent retributions. As the Yingluo says: 'Giving rise to responses to all realms, giving rise to responses to all sentient beings.' If responding to match direct retributions, this is manifesting as the forms of the ten dharma realms; if responding to match dependent retributions, this is matching the places upon which the ten realms depend. If responding to match the four evil destinies, using compassion that contemplates evil karma to perfume the dhyāna of non-defiled transformation upon transformation, one responds by making forms and substances of hells and so forth: black hair wrapping the body, monkeys, deer, horses, great vultures, quails, asuras, and such forms, which each and every one sees, sharing in their activities. If responding with human and divine bodies, this uses compassion within the contemplation of good karma to perfume the dhyāna of non-defiled transformation upon transformation, making bodies of the good destinies: like the bodhisattva in his final body, who with correct wisdom enters the womb, takes seven steps upon falling to the ground, washes hands and feet, purifies himself with a willow twig, takes a consort and father a child, grows weary of the world and leaves household life—up to divine forms, it is likewise so, with each and every one seeing and sharing in their activities. If responding by making the \[figures of\] the two vehicles of the Tripiṭaka, this uses compassion of analyzing emptiness to perfume the dhyāna of non-defiled transformation upon transformation: giving rise to the forms of old monks, together with the saṃgha practicing the poṣadha, vinaya, and rules of conduct, with each and every one seeing and sharing in their activities. If responding to the shared teaching, this uses compassion of embodying emptiness to perfume the dhyāna of non-defiled transformation upon transformation, making responses that embody phenomena: contemplating unproduced habituations, responding to suffering, emptiness, and so forth as all unobtainable, with each and every one seeing and sharing in their activities.
