English version: Moreover, the existence of differences between defilement and purity is merely due to the establishment of teachings according to the occasion, in order to guide beings of different capacities. Now, to construct the Mandala, first explain the origin of its causes. Cakravāḍa (Wheel-enclosing mountains): That is, the Great Iron Wheel-enclosing Mountains. Trakravāḍaparvata (Iron Wheel-enclosing Mountains): When reciting the mantra, with the hand, take flower-rice and scatter it clockwise on the Mandala, like rain pouring from the sky, forming these two mountains. The Cakravāḍa is on the outside, and the Trakravāḍaparvata is on the inside, with a height of six million eight hundred thousand Yojana. What is said here is **. A great Yojana is eighty li, a middle Yojana is sixty li, and a small Yojana is forty li. Its breadth varies according to circumstances, either the measure of one Caturdvīpa (four continents), or the measure of one Sahasrī-cūḍika-lokadhātu (small chiliocosm), or the measure of one Dvisāhasrī-madhyama-lokadhātu (medium chiliocosm), in various ways that are not fixed. It is extremely firm and solid, made of Vajra (diamond), and difficult to destroy. Outside this Trisāhasra-mahāsāhasra-lokadhātu (great chiliocosm), there is always a great Cakravāḍa, reaching up to the fourth Dhyana heaven, and within its scope, it is collectively called the three thousand great chiliocosm. Vajra-bhūmi (Diamond Ground) (to) and make protection: This forms the Vajradhātu (Diamond Realm). With the hand, take flower-rice and write a Hūṃ in the middle of the Mandala as protection. Arrange the flower-rice, coming out from the middle. The foundation of the Supreme Diamond Ground is a praise of the manifestation of the power of wisdom, different from the delusions of sentient beings. If according to the sequential differences of causal origins, as the original sutra says, this great earth is four hundred and eighty thousand Yojana thick, the Pṛthvī-maṇḍala (earth wheel) relies on the Apo-maṇḍala (water wheel), the water wheel relies on the Vāyu-maṇḍala (wind wheel), the wind wheel relies on Ākāśa (space), space relies on Kalpana (delusion), and delusion relies on Tathatā (suchness), which relies on nothing. The accumulated water is six hundred thousand Yojana thick, and above the water, there is a great wind blowing and rotating, forming gold on top, like cream forming on top of cooked milk, called the Kañcana-maṇḍala (gold wheel), three Lakṣa (hundred thousand) and twenty thousand Yojana thick. The accumulated wind is three hundred and sixty thousand Yojana thick, each vast and immeasurable. In the great ocean, Sumeru (Mount Sumeru) emerges above the water as the largest, and the Sapta-suvarṇa-parvata (seven golden mountains) are auxiliary mountains to the great Sumeru. Mahāmeru (Great Mount Sumeru): This translates as Mount Myōkō (Wonderful High Mountain). Its lower roots are connected to the top of the gold wheel, all made of seven treasures, namely gold, silver, lapis lazuli, crystal, tridacna, red pearl, and agate. Narrow at the bottom and wide at the top, gradually expanding, upright and straight without bending. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: Mount Sumeru (Sumeru Mountain) is most excellent and beautiful to behold, curving near the sea, and is 84,000 yojanas (yojana, an ancient Indian unit of length) in height. It has four peaks on its four sides, each peak having eight heavens. The middle peak is called Trayastrimsa Heaven (Trayastrimsa Heaven), where Indra (Indra) resides, who is also the Jade Emperor. Halfway up Mount Sumeru, on its four sides, are four terraces, called the Heaven of the Four Heavenly Kings (Heaven of the Four Heavenly Kings). Three levels below are the heavens of Firm Head, Holder of the Garland, and Constant Pride, where the eight classes of gods and demigods reside. Each of the four corners of Mount Sumeru is 100 yojanas away, and there are seven layers of purple-gold mountains. Small Sumeru Mountains Each mountain is 700 yojanas high, with a flat base, made of the four treasures, growing various trees, lush with flowers and fruits, and is the dwelling place of many sages and virtuous beings. The first mountain is called Double Holder, the second is called Axis Holder, the third is called Burden Bearer, the fourth is called Good View, the fifth is called Horse Ear, the sixth is called Elephant Nose, and the seventh is called Fish Mouth. There are also seven layers of fragrant water seas, the first is called Auspicious Sea, the second is called Ghee Sea, the third is called Curd Sea, the fourth is called Butter Sea, the fifth is called Milk Sea, the sixth is called Wine Sea, and the seventh is called Honey Sea. Within each layer of purple-gold mountains, there is a layer of fragrant water sea. Each sea surrounds a mountain. Outside Fish Mouth Mountain is the great sea, called the Salty Sea. The palaces of the sun and moon revolve around the waist of Mount Sumeru, constantly moving without ceasing. Starting from the east, it is noon in the south, sunset in the west, and midnight in the north. When it is noon in Jambudvipa (Jambudvipa), it is the third watch of the night in Uttarakuru (Uttarakuru). It travels north for six months and south for six months. Each day it travels six kroshas (krosha, an ancient Indian unit of length), at the southernmost tip of Yamti (Yamti), where the terrain is narrow, so the days pass quickly. In winter, the days are short and the nights are long. Gradually moving north, the sun moves six kroshas, traveling in the middle of the continent, where the land is wide, so the time passes slowly. In summer, the days are long and the nights are short. Cold and heat refer to the halfway point of Mount Sumeru. There are mountains such as Gatila (Gatila), when the sun travels north and shines on these mountains, it generates heat and annoyance. Between the two mountains is the Sumeru Sea (Sumeru Sea), which is 84,000 yojanas wide. When the sun travels south and shines on this sea, it becomes cold. The sun is made of heavenly gold and glass, and the palace is 51 yojanas wide, square like a house, appearing round from a distance. It is blown by the wind and dwells in the sky. The light of the Sun God (Sun God) shines on the chariot of Jambudvipa gold (Jambudvipa gold), and the light of the chariot shines on the palace, the lights connecting, thus there are thousands of rays of light shining in all directions. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
