十、法性融通力故者，謂若唯約事，相互相礙，不可則入。若唯約理性，則唯一味，不可則入。今則理事融通，具斯無礙，謂不異理之事具攝理性時，令彼不異理之多事，隨彼所依理皆於一中現。若一中攝理而不盡，即真理有分限失；若一中攝理盡，多事不隨理現，即事在理外失。今既一事之中全攝理，多事豈不於中現？〈舍那品〉云「於此蓮華藏世界海之內，一一塵中見一切法界。」解云：一切法界是事法界也。又〈不思議品〉云「一切諸佛，於一一微塵中，示現一切世界微塵等佛剎種種莊嚴，常轉法輪，教化眾生，未曾斷絕。而微塵不大、世界不小，決定了知，安住法界。」解云：此中文意，明此大小之事同是安住理法界，故令彼能依事法，大小相在，無障礙也。

Tenth, by the power of the fusion and interpenetration of the nature of phenomena (dharmatā): this means that if one were to consider [things] solely in terms of phenomena (shi), they would mutually obstruct one another and could not be identical or enter into each other. If one were to consider [things] solely in terms of the nature of principle (li), then there would be only a single flavor, and they could not be identical or enter into each other. Now, however, principle and phenomena fuse and interpenetrate, fully possessing this unobstructedness. This means that when a phenomenon that is not separate from principle fully embraces the nature of principle, it causes those many phenomena that are likewise not separate from principle to all appear within the single [phenomenon] in accordance with the principle upon which they rely. If the single [phenomenon] embraced principle incompletely, there would be the fault of true principle having limits; if the single [phenomenon] embraced principle completely, yet the many phenomena did not appear in accordance with principle, there would be the fault of phenomena existing outside principle. Now, since principle is completely embraced within a single phenomenon, how could the many phenomena not appear within it? The "Chapter on Rocana" says: "Within this Padmagarbha-vyūhālaṅkāra-lokadhātusamudra, in every single atom one sees all dharmadhātus." In explanation: "All dharmadhātus" refers to the dharmadhātu of phenomena. Furthermore, the "Chapter on the Inconceivable" says: "All Buddhas, in every single subtle atom, manifest Buddha-lands equal in number to the subtle atoms of all worlds, with their diverse adornments, constantly turning the wheel of the Dharma and teaching and transforming sentient beings without interruption. Yet the subtle atom does not become large and the worlds do not become small; decisively and fully understanding this, they abide securely in the dharmadhātu." In explanation: the meaning of the text here clarifies that these phenomena, both great and small, equally abide securely in the dharmadhātu of principle; therefore, the phenomenal dharmas that rely upon it abide mutually within the great and small without obstruction.
