今初兩句標佛現身也。故者所以義。我即指佛也。言滿淨者揀異分淨，以佛無明永盡，無念之極故。覺則覺悟者即指人，謂佛是覺悟之人也。若梵語菩提此翻為覺，斯則約法。梵語佛陀此云覺者，斯則約人。今此辨人故言覺者。亦可滿字是總，淨覺為別。者字屬人，即明如來是滿淨滿覺之者，揀諸聖人覺淨未滿，唯佛如來三障都盡，三覺具圓，故號如來為滿淨覺者。若以此二，望眾生、二乘、菩薩、諸佛及本性料揀，有兩種四句：一者眾生不淨，二乘菩薩分淨，諸佛滿淨，本性但淨。二者眾生不覺，二乘菩薩分覺，諸佛滿覺，本性但覺。今於此二四句中，皆當第三也。

> Now, the first two lines identify the Buddha manifesting his body. 'Therefore' (gu) carries the meaning of the reason. 'Our' (wo) points to the Buddha. 'Fully pure' (manjing) is specified to differentiate it from partial purity, because in the Buddha ignorance is forever exhausted, reaching the culmination of thoughtlessness. 'Enlightened one' (juezhe) points to the person, meaning that the Buddha is an awakened person. In Sanskrit, bodhi is translated here as 'enlightenment' (jue), which pertains to the Dharma. In Sanskrit, buddha is translated here as 'awakened one' (juezhe), which pertains to the person. Here, since it identifies the person, it says 'awakened one.' It may also be that 'fully' is general, while 'pure' and 'enlightened' are specific, and the word 'one' (zhe) belongs to the person; this explains that the Tathāgata is one who is fully pure and fully enlightened, distinguishing him from the various noble beings whose enlightenment and purity are not yet full. Only the Buddha, the Tathāgata, has completely exhausted the three hindrances and fully perfected the three enlightenments; therefore the Tathāgata is called 'the fully pure and enlightened one.' If one uses these two to evaluate sentient beings, the two vehicles, bodhisattvas, the buddhas, and original nature, there are two kinds of fourfold propositions: First, sentient beings are not pure; the two vehicles and bodhisattvas are partially pure; all buddhas are fully pure; original nature is simply pure. Second, sentient beings are not enlightened; the two vehicles and bodhisattvas are partially enlightened; all buddhas are fully enlightened; original nature is simply enlightened. Now in both of these fourfold propositions, \[the Tathāgata\] corresponds to the third.
