次、對四種十二因緣明智者,《大經》云:「十二因緣有四種觀:下智觀故,得聲聞菩提。中智觀故,得緣覺菩提。上智觀故,得菩薩菩提。上上智觀故,得佛菩提。」何者?十二因緣本是一境,緣解不同,開成四種。

Next, regarding the clarification of wisdom in contrast to the four kinds of twelvefold conditioned co-arising: the Mahāparinirvāṇa-sūtra says, 'The twelvefold conditioned co-arising has four kinds of contemplation: through contemplation with inferior wisdom, one attains śrāvaka bodhi; through contemplation with intermediate wisdom, one attains pratyekabuddha bodhi; through contemplation with superior wisdom, one attains bodhisattva bodhi; through contemplation with supreme wisdom, one attains Buddha bodhi.' Why is this? The twelvefold conditioned co-arising is fundamentally a single object; because conditions and understandings differ, it opens into four kinds.
