答：若以五百由旬為界外者，《大品》明四百由旬，寧非界外耶？又《華嚴》、《涅槃》諸大乘經，無有分明文辨三界內外事，但《勝鬘》分明說耳，可言《華嚴》、《涅槃》未明界外事耶？

> Answer: If the five hundred yojanas are taken as being beyond the realms, the Pañcaviṃśati explains four hundred yojanas; how could this not be beyond the realms? Furthermore, in various Mahāyāna sūtras such as the Avataṃsaka and the Nirvāṇa, there are no clear textual passages delineating affairs within and beyond the three realms—only the Śrīmālādevī-sūtra speaks of it clearly. Could one say that the Avataṃsaka and the Nirvāṇa do not explain affairs beyond the realms?
