5.155

問:何故方丈變之令廣,世界極小不變令大。答?方丈別室,眾集變之;世界遍處,故不須變。計室論座,大於世界;神力任情,有變不變。

Question: Why did he transform the ten-foot square room to make it expansive, while leaving the extremely small world untransformed and not making it large? Answer: The ten-foot room is a distinct chamber where the multitude gathered, so it was transformed; the world is an all-pervading location, so there was no need to transform it. Measuring the room against the thrones, [the thrones] were larger than the world; spiritual power functions at will, so some things are transformed and some are not.
