四、常寂光土者，妙覺極智所照如如法界之理，名之為國，亦名法性土。但真如佛性，非身非土而說身土。離身無土、離土無身，名其土者，一法二義。《普賢觀》毘盧遮那住處，名常寂光。問：《華嚴》明十種佛土，此四攝盡否？答：何但攝十。乃至有人言。經明二十七品佛土，無量壽土止是第六，現文對四，攝無不盡。問：何不依十及二十七？答：一往有文，欲對四教，措意難見。

Fourth, as for the Land of Eternally Quiescent Light: the principle of the tathatā dharmadhātu illuminated by the ultimate wisdom of wondrous enlightenment is called a 'land'; it is also called the land of dharmatā. Yet, true thusness and buddha-nature are neither body nor land, though body and land are spoken of. Apart from the body there is no land, and apart from the land there is no body; designating it a 'land' is one phenomenon with two meanings. The dwelling place of Vairocana in the Samantabhadra Contemplation is called 'Eternally Quiescent Light.' Question: The Avataṃsaka explains ten kinds of buddha-lands; does this [classification of] four subsume them all or not? Answer: Not only does it subsume the ten. Someone has even said that the sūtras explain twenty-seven grades of buddha-lands, and the land of Immeasurable Life is only the sixth; when matched against the four in the present text, it subsumes them without exception. Question: Why not rely on the ten and the twenty-seven? Answer: Even if there are texts to that effect, the intention when seeking to match them with the four teachings would be difficult to discern.
