Now, if one clarifies the enumeration of stages, one must rely on the *Yingluo* and the *Benevolent Kings*. If one clarifies the heights of severance and suppression, one must rely on the three contemplations of the *Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā*. If one matches them with dharma-gates, one must rely on the *Mahāparinirvāṇa-sūtra*. Using the purport of the various sūtras, they jointly accomplish both the contemplation and teaching gates for the initial mind, making them clear.
