1.56

言釋名者,先總後別。言總名者,四是標數,諦有二義,如《瑜伽論》,一、如所說相不相離義,二、由離此故致究竟意處。是帶數釋,準前可知。言別名者,諦別不同,乃至四種,一、苦,二、集,三、滅,四、道。三苦所成名之為苦,能招後果故名為集,集、苦盡故名之為滅,能除、能通故名為道。

Regarding the explanation of names, first general, then specific. As for the general name: "four" indicates the number, and "truth" has two meanings, as in the Yogācārabhūmi-śāstra: first, the meaning of being inseparable from its described characteristics; second, because departing from this leads to the ultimate mental state. It is a compound characterized by a number, which can be understood according to the preceding. As for the specific names: the distinct truths differ, amounting to four kinds: first, duḥkha; second, samudaya; third, nirodha; fourth, mārga. Being constituted by the three kinds of suffering is called duḥkha; being able to bring about future fruits is therefore called samudaya; because samudaya and duḥkha are extinguished, it is called nirodha; being able to eliminate and being able to lead through, it is called mārga.
