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. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.154](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1782.5.154) - [Next: 5.156](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1782.5.156) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1782.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1782~en-mt.5.155) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1782.5.155](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1782.5.155) · Pramāṇa
