48.21

第三「佛子」下結略顯廣。別說難周,故須結略。非略能盡,故須顯廣。一華藏塵相已無邊,況十華藏,則無盡無盡,非普眼者安能覩歟?既三十二相權實不同,互有互無,故不會釋。

Third, from 'Sons of the Buddha' onward, the text concludes the brief to reveal the extensive. Because an individual explanation is difficult to make comprehensive, it must conclude briefly. Because a brief explanation cannot exhaust it, it must reveal the extensive. The marks [corresponding to] the dust motes of a single Padmagarbha [world] are already boundless; how much more so for ten Padmagarbha worlds—they are inexhaustible and inexhaustible! Unless one possesses the universal eye, how could one behold them? Since the thirty-two marks differ between the provisional and the real, alternately present and absent, they are not reconciled here.
