总而言之,关于“画线的方法应如此进行”这件事,有些导师有他们的解释,可以那样做。还有些导师是这样解释的:其中,“首先从东和北,到南和西之间”,这是首先展示画线的顺序。即首先画东方一侧的线,然后画南方一侧的线,然后画西方一侧的线。然后,在其下方,要在四个方向画两条线,在四个隅角也画两条线。因此,经中说:“线绳从方向和隅角,然后也要拉直。”因为经中这样说了。“东和南的隅角,以及西和北的隅角”,这句话是指画线时,导师应该坐在哪里。即导师坐在东南隅,也就是火神的方向,以及西北隅,也就是风的方向,然后画线。没有提到学生的位置,只是围绕着画线。用线来测量,使坛城没有大小之分,没有歪斜和粗糙,这样画线就不会粗糙。因此,经中说:“用线好好地测量,要在正方形中画线。”经中是这么说的。对此,有些人说:“首先从东和北,到南和西之间”,这是总的画线计算的开始。首先画东边的线,然后画南边的线,然后画西边的线。像这样画线的原因,经中也说:“线绳从方向和隅角,同样也要拉直。在东和南的隅角,用线好好地测量,要在正方形中画线。”经中是这么说的。即坐在东南隅,以及西北隅风的方向,先画东方和北方一侧的线。虽然已经提到了南方和西方,但由于上面提到的是总的计算开始,所以南方和西方也应该画线。画线的方法与上面所说的一致。坛城一边的尺寸是多少?

In short, regarding the matter of "the method of drawing lines should be done in this way," some teachers have their explanations, and it can be done that way. There are also some teachers who explain it this way: Among them, "first from the east and north, to between the south and west," this is to first show the order of drawing lines. That is, first draw the line on the east side, then draw the line on the south side, and then draw the line on the west side. Then, below it, two lines should be drawn in the four directions, and two lines should also be drawn in the four corners. Therefore, it is said in the sutra, "The line rope is from the directions and corners, and then it should also be straightened." Because it is said so in the sutra. "The corner of the east and south, and the corners of the west and north," this sentence refers to where the teacher should sit when drawing the lines. That is, the teacher sits in the southeast corner, which is the direction of the fire god, and the northwest corner, which is the direction of the wind, and then draws the lines. There is no mention of the student's position, just drawing around. Use lines to measure, so that the mandala has no size, no distortion, and no roughness, so that the lines are not rough. Therefore, it is said in the sutra, "Measure well with lines, and draw lines in a square." It is said so in the sutra. To this, some people say, "First from the east and north, to between the south and west," this is the beginning of the general calculation of drawing lines. First draw the east line, then draw the south line, and then draw the west line. The reason for drawing lines like this is also said in the sutra, "The line rope is from the directions and corners, and it should also be straightened in the same way. In the corners of the east and south, measure well with lines, and draw lines in a square." It is said so in the sutra. That is, sitting in the southeast corner, and the northwest corner, the direction of the wind, first draw the lines on the east and north sides. Although the south and west have been mentioned, since the above mentioned is the beginning of the general calculation, the south and west should also be drawn. The methods of drawing lines are the same as those mentioned above. What is the size of one side of the mandala?
