The measure of the first dhyāna is equal to the four continents; the second dhyāna's measure is equal to a small-thousand \[world\]; the third is equal to a medium-thousand; the fourth is equal to a great-thousand; hence it says "up to." Since the measures are pervasive and equal, it can cognize all pervasively. Regarding the "immeasurable characteristic": the Buddha's wisdom corresponds to the actuality of phenomena and principle, hence there is no quantitative measure. Regarding "The distinct characteristic is the delimitation of phenomena": if one speaks of large and small, that is delimitation. Knowing the solid characteristic of earth, the wet characteristic of water, etc., is called knowing their own characteristics (svalakṣaṇa); sharing impermanence and so forth is called knowing their common characteristics (sāmānyalakṣaṇa). Both characteristics are the delimitations of phenomena. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 69.53](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.69.53) - [Next: 69.55](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.69.55) - [Up: 69](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.69) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736~en-mt.69.54) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.69.54](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.69.54) · Pramāṇa
