From the dharmakāya,
Effortlessly displays himself to the suitable
Through emanations in all realms.

Et sans effort, le Sage montre des apparences
De lui-même dans toutes les sphères

Obermiller (1931) [5]
In a similar way, in all the regions of the world,
The Lord, though motionless in his Cosmical Body,
Shows himself in apparitional forms
Without effort to those that are worthy.
Takasaki (1966) [6]
Similarly, the Buddha, without moving from the Absolute Body,
Comes to the sight of the worthy, without any effort,
With his apparitional form, n all the worlds.
Fuchs (2000) [7]
without moving from dharmakaya
the Muni effortlessly demonstrates
illusory appearances in every realm
to beings who have karmic fortune.
