Answer: When one is inexhaustible, the others are also inexhaustible. If the others were not exhaustive, the one would also not be exhaustive. If one is established, all are established; if one is not established, all are not established. Therefore, this gathering of dharmas is inexhaustible and again inexhaustible, which is the meaning of establishing the one. In the meaning of the third and fourth, it is like space, which is exhaustive; it does not further gather the others, hence it is called non-exhaustive. Therefore one knows that it gathers both exhaustively and non-exhaustively.
