二、各各為人悉檀者,大聖觀人心而為說法,人心各各不同,於一事中或聽或不聽。如雜業故,雜生世間,得雜觸雜受。更有《破群那經》說無人得觸,無人得受。為二人疑後世,不信罪福,墮斷常中,故作此說。此意傍為破執,正是生信。增長善根,施其善法也。故名各各為人悉檀。
Second, regarding the siddhānta for each individual: The Great Sage contemplates the minds of people and preaches the Dharma for them. Because people's minds are each different, regarding a single matter he may permit it or not permit it. For example, due to mixed karma, one is born into the world in a mixed manner and obtains mixed contact and mixed feeling. Furthermore, the *Poqunna-sūtra* (*Phalguna-sūtra*) says that no person obtains contact and no person obtains feeling. Because two persons doubted the future life, disbelieved in sin and merit, and fell into annihilationism or eternalism, he made this statement. The secondary intention of this was to break attachment, while the primary aim was to produce faith. It increases good roots and bestows good dharmas upon them. Therefore it is called the siddhānta for each individual.
