二、世流布者,謂今見此塵名相大小,是世流布而共說也。然塵體全法,無復種種差別,全以用不異體,是故存此假名,經云「一法有多名,真法中即無,不失法性故,流布於世間。」

Second, conventional currency: now, seeing the names, marks, largeness, and smallness of this dust mote is conventional currency through which [people] converse together. However, the essence of the dust mote is entirely the Dharma, without any further diverse distinctions; it is solely because function is not different from essence that these provisional names are retained. A sūtra states: "A single dharma has many names, yet in the true Dharma they do not exist; because it does not lose the nature of dharmas, it has currency in the world."
