Both the distinctive and perfect kinds access the middle. Discussing their similarities and differences comprises briefly ten points: first, interpenetrating and non-interpenetrating; second, identical to dharmas and not identical to dharmas; third, clarifying buddha wisdom and non-buddha wisdom; fourth, clarifying sequential practice and non-sequential practice; fifth, clarifying severance by severance of afflictions and severance without severance of afflictions; sixth, clarifying real stages and unreal stages; seventh, whether the fruits are aligned in succession or not; eighth, perfect expression and non-perfect expression; ninth, treating difficult questions; tenth, treating analogies. Investigating these ten points, one clearly discerns the similarities and differences of the eight gates. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 9.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.9.3) - [Next: 9.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.9.5) - [Up: 9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.9) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716~en-mt.9.4) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.9.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.9.4) · Pramāṇa
