維摩義記 3.25

### [3.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1776.3.25)

自下第三維摩聖坐現神力者，如意通力非餘通等。「彼佛遣」者，神力使來，因之為遣。「三萬二千」，彰其多也。言「高廣」等，顯其大也。縱廣四萬二千由旬，故言高廣。「入維摩室」，現不思議，令人敬也。廣多之坐入於小室，名示不思議。

> From here below, third, Vimalakīrti manifesting spiritual power regarding the noble seats refers to the spiritual power of wish-fulfillment (ṛddhi), not other kinds of superknowledges. "That Buddha dispatched" means that they were made to come by spiritual power, and accordingly this is called "dispatched." "Thirty-two thousand" reveals their great number. Saying "high and broad" and so forth manifests their great size. Their length and breadth were forty-two thousand yojanas, hence they are described as "high and broad." "Entering Vimalakīrti's room" manifests the inconceivable, causing people to feel reverent. Extremely broad and numerous seats entering into a small room is called displaying the inconceivable.
