### [4.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.4.15)

「又如來說，地水火風本性圓融，周遍法界，湛然常住。世尊！若地性遍，云何容水？水性周遍，火則不生。復云何明水火二性，俱遍虛空不相陵滅？世尊！地性障礙，空性虛通，云何二俱周遍法界？」

> "Furthermore, the Tathāgata has said that earth, water, fire, and wind are in their intrinsic nature harmoniously fused, completely pervading the dharmadhātu, serene and permanently abiding. World-Honoured One! If the nature of earth is all-pervading, how can it accommodate water? If the nature of water is all-pervading, then fire cannot arise. How, furthermore, can it be explained that the two natures of water and fire both pervade empty space without encroaching upon or extinguishing each other? World-Honoured One! The nature of earth is obstructing, whereas the nature of space is hollow and unobstructed; how can both completely pervade the dharmadhātu?"
