11.51

第四願智果中,若以願力者,內證正願久積成也。自在者,智力作用也。以願自在,諸所示現,過前百數無量無邊,縱百千億那由他劫計不可知。問:論經所示現中有十一事,何故此中總不顯耶?答:大都與前百數所示十一種法不多別,故不重辨;少有不同,如論顯之。長行散說竟。

Fourth, in the result of vows and knowledge, "if by the power of vows" refers to the proper vow of internal realization, long accumulated and accomplished. "Sovereignty" refers to the karmic function of the power of knowledge. By means of sovereignty of vows, all that is manifested surpasses the previous count of one hundred, being limitless and boundless, so that even in hundreds of thousands of koṭis of nayutas of kalpas, it cannot be calculated or known. Question: In the manifestations shown in the Treatise-Sūtra (Daśabhūmika-śāstra), there are eleven items; why are they not clearly shown here in general? Answer: In general, they do not differ much from the eleven kinds of phenomena shown in the previous count of one hundred, so they are not delineated again; the minor differences are revealed as in the treatise. The prose explanation in diverse detail is concluded.
