### [2.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.2.28)

「而此世界」下，二、正現相，又為二：一、現國土、二現佛說法。國土有四：一現國土廣長之相、二現十山、三現大海江河、四現日月天宮。初文者正表依報世間。橫極百億稱廣，竪至有頂名長。又解橫極十方稱廣，竪際四土名長。

> From "And in this world" below: second, directly displaying the marks, which also has two parts: 1. displaying the lands; 2. displaying the buddhas preaching the Dharma. The lands comprise four aspects: 1. displaying the breadth and length of the lands; 2. displaying the ten mountains; 3. displaying the oceans and rivers; 4. displaying the sun, moon, and heavenly palaces. The first passage directly symbolizes the realm of dependent retribution. Extending horizontally across a hundred billion worlds is called "breadth"; extending vertically up to the Summit of Existence is named "length." Alternatively, extending horizontally across the ten directions is called "breadth"; extending vertically through the four lands is named "length."
