十八施座迴向中，言三種世間，義如常釋。辨法師云：「地前為願樂世間，初地至七地名功用世間，八至等覺名無功用世間。」有云：西域相傳，眾生界中有三世間：一地下世間，龍修羅等；二人中世間；三天上世間。若依《智論》，三世間者，即眾生、五蘊及器為三。於彼顯勝，義皆無失。餘並可知。

> Eighteen: In the pariṇāmanā of giving seats, the mention of the three kinds of worlds has the meaning as conventionally explained. Master Bian says: 'Before the stages is the world of aspiring joy; from the first stage to the seventh stage is called the world of effort; from the eighth stage to equal enlightenment is called the world of effortless ease.' Some say: According to the Western Regions' tradition, within the realm of sentient beings there are three worlds: (1) the subterranean world, of nāgas, asuras, and so forth; (2) the human world; (3) the celestial world. If one relies on the Mahāprajñāpāramitā-śāstra, the three worlds are simply sentient beings, the five aggregates, and the receptacle world as the three. In demonstrating preeminence among them, none of these senses is in error. The rest can all be understood.
