又云卵濕等者,舉難處難也。卵濕則畜生難,無想有頂即長壽天難,雖舉二處,意兼八難。八難,謂:三塗、北州、長壽天、佛前佛後、世智辯聰、無根等難。意云:難處即不可度,云何皆入?
It also says 'egg-born, moisture-born, etc.': this raises an objection based on the states of adversity. Egg-born and moisture-born are the adversity of animals; non-perception and the Peak of Existence are the adversity of the long-lived devas. Although two places are cited, the intention includes all eight adversities. The eight adversities are: the three wretched destinies, the Northern Continent, the long-lived devas, being born before or after a Buddha, worldly knowledge and debate, and being deficient in faculties. The meaning is: those in states of adversity cannot be liberated; how could they all enter [nirvāṇa]?
