第二結通中二：先顯法普周無盡世界；後有十句釋遍所由，謂何故此法遍於十方說處說人說法及證悉皆同耶？釋佛力等十句故也。一此舍那佛及一切佛，各以現在威神之力同共加持，故使然也；二諸佛本願之所攝持；三為欲顯示佛所得法理數如此，遍十方故；四明佛智光使普照故；五欲令解悟真理普遍故；六法界緣起，相由法爾，故須遍說；七為欣大法者示此稱性廣大之法，令歡喜故；八佛德普周，欲具讚故；九顯示十方一切諸佛同所得法，謂平等無差故也；十為令解知十方法界無二轍故。由是十義故說普遍。所以說十，亦是式則，顯無盡耳。上下諸文結通之義，並準此知之。上來此界他方總無盡世界一切處長行散說竟。

> Second, in concluding the universal pervasion, there are two parts: first, revealing that the Dharma universally pervades inexhaustible worlds; second, there are ten sentences explaining the reason for this pervasion, asking: why is it that throughout the ten directions, this Dharma is identical in preaching place, preacher, Dharma preached, and confirmation? It is explained through the ten sentences on the Buddha's power and so forth:  
> 1. This Rocana Buddha and all buddhas each jointly empower it with their present spiritual majesty; hence it is made so.  
> 2. It is upheld and sustained by the fundamental vows of all buddhas.  
> 3. Because of the wish to show that the principle and order of the Dharma attained by the Buddha are like this, pervading the ten directions.  
> 4. To illuminate the light of the Buddha's wisdom, causing it to shine everywhere.  
> 5. Wishing to cause understanding and awakening to the true reality to be universal.  
> 6. The dependent origination of the dharmadhātu is naturally so by mutual conditionality; hence it must be preached everywhere.  
> 7. For the sake of those who delight in the Great Dharma, revealing this vast Dharma that accords with the nature, causing them to rejoice.  
> 8. The Buddha's virtues universally pervade, and he wishes to fully praise them.  
> 9. Revealing the Dharma identically attained by all buddhas of the ten directions, meaning equality without differentiation.  
> 10. In order to cause them to understand and know that the dharmadhātu of the ten directions has no dual paths.  
> It is through these ten meanings that universal pervasion is spoken of. The reason ten are spoken is also to serve as a paradigm, revealing inexhaustibility. The meanings of concluding universal pervasion in all texts above and below are to be understood in accordance with this. Up to here, the continuous prose and unmetered preaching in all places of this world and other directions—the total inexhaustible worlds—is concluded.
