1.61
初異說經者,如樹形等世界既異,其中眾生報類亦別,如來於彼現身立教,隨彼所宜施設教法差別不同,與虛空法界等,唯如來智之所能知,不可定其色非色等、言非言等。〈舍那品〉中,廣明樹形、河形、須彌山形,乃至一切眾生形世界海,末後結云「皆是盧舍那佛常轉法輪處」。解云:文中但云常轉法輪,不言法輪分齊相者,以彼施設與此不同,故不顯示。俱可准知,彼處亦設如此法教,部類難量,不可說也。
First, as for the Differently Expounded Sūtra: since world-realms of tree-shapes and the like are diverse, the retribution classes of the sentient beings within them are also distinct. When the Tathāgata manifests a body and establishes the teaching there, he establishes distinctive and different teachings according to what is appropriate for them, equal to empty space and the dharmadhātu, which can only be known by the Tathāgata's wisdom; their form and formlessness, speech and speechlessness, and so forth cannot be determined. In the "Rocana Chapter", it broadly clarifies the oceans of world-realms in tree-shapes, river-shapes, Mount Sumeru-shapes, up to the shapes of all sentient beings, and concludes at the end by saying: "All are places where Rocana Buddha constantly turns the wheel of the Dharma." The explanation says: The text only says "constantly turns the wheel of the Dharma" and does not state the demarcation and characteristics of the dharmacakra, because those provisions are different from here, and are thus not revealed. It can be known by analogy that such Dharma teachings are also established in those places, whose divisions and classes are difficult to measure and cannot be described.
