The tenth clarifies the non-difference of the ocean of worlds. Among the ten listed names: 1. It clarifies that the number of worlds contained within a single ocean of worlds is like the dust motes of a single ocean of worlds, and the various oceans of worlds accumulated within it all share this number; hence it says "each and every one has no difference." 2. The Buddha's majestic power. 3. The site of the bodhimaṇḍa, meaning that because it is present throughout the fine dust motes it is called the dharmadhātu. 4. The great assembly. 5. The Buddha emits light. 6. Manifesting divine transformations. 7. The round voice is all-pervading. 8. Turning the wheel of Dharma. 9. The land enters into a dust mote. 10. The Buddhas within the dust motes and within the various oceans of lands equally have these matters; hence it is called non-difference. In the verses there are also ten, following the order in versifying the preceding ten phenomena; but whereas the former was uniform and universal, now it is layered within the dust motes. In the first, it clarifies that the many lands within a dust mote further mutually enter one another without disorder. The second versifies the Buddha's emergence. The third versifies the bodhimaṇḍa. The fourth versifies the assembly. The fifth versifies the Buddha's light. The sixth versifies the divine transformations. The seventh versifies the wheel of Dharma. The eighth versifies the Buddha's voice. The ninth versifies the two causes for the emergence of lands within a dust mote: first, the Buddha's power; second, karmic power. The tenth versifies the two causes for the Buddhas within the dust motes: first, unobstructedness of nature; second, the power of vows. All of these can be known. The above finishes explaining the "Chapter on the Accomplishment of the Ocean of Worlds".
