六、辨依正者，謂塵毛剎海是依，佛身智慧光明是正。今此塵是佛智所現，舉體全是佛智，是故光明中見微塵佛剎。又剎海微塵，全用法界性而為塵體，是故塵中見一切佛說法化生等事，當知依即正、正即依，自在無礙，乃至塵毛國土一一事法各各如是，全佛依正也。

> Sixth, discerning the dependent and primary \[retributions\]: this means that dust motes, hair-tips, and oceans of kṣetras are the dependent, while the Buddha's body, wisdom, and radiance are the primary. Now this dust mote is manifested by the Buddha's wisdom; its entire essence is completely the Buddha's wisdom, and therefore within radiance one sees dust-mote Buddha-kṣetras. Furthermore, the oceans of kṣetras and minute dust motes entirely use the nature of the dharmadhātu as the essence of the dust mote; therefore within a dust mote one sees all matters such as the Buddhas preaching the Dharma and transforming sentient beings. One should know that the dependent is the primary and the primary is the dependent, sovereign and unobstructed; even down to dust motes, hair-tips, lands, and every single phenomenon, each is like this: entirely the Buddha's dependent and primary \[retributions\].
