問:世界形相差別不同者,明唯心所造故也。《華嚴經》云「種子差別故,果實生不同。行業若干故,佛剎種種異。」具如〈世界成就品〉所明。因陀羅者,即帝釋別名也。

[Mahāmati] asks about the differing shapes of world systems to make clear that they are made by the mind alone. The Avataṃsaka Sūtra states: "Because of differences in seeds, fruits grow differently; because of diverse karmic actions, Buddha-lands vary in many ways." This is explained fully in the chapter "The Formation of the World." "Indra" is another name for Śakra.
