次相對中三:先標章,次列四文,三釋。釋中二:先釋四意,次料簡。初又四:先釋初意又二:先總述,次「地獄」下正釋。釋中且約地獄,餘二十四略而不云,下機關及三十六句亦然,至第四意方始例出二十四有。今正釋又二:先釋,次「是為」下結。釋中二:先並列,次釋。釋中先機、次應,應中有標、列、釋,釋中機則先惡、次善,應則先悲、次慈,望前二十五三昧中四意,略無諸有過患及結行成。何者?此中既明機應即行已成,故須更明本法功德。機中復加善者,欲明機遍故,前但明過患者且從惡邊。

Next, in [the section on] mutual correlations, there are three [parts]: first, the heading is marked; second, the four textual passages are listed; third, the explanation. Within the explanation, there are two [parts]: first, the four intents are explained; second, the critical analysis. The first again has four [parts]: first, explaining the first intent, which again has two [parts]: first, a general statement; second, from 'hell' onward, the correct explanation. Within the explanation, hell is provisionally taken, while the remaining twenty-four [realms of existence] are omitted and not stated; the same applies to the triggers below and the thirty-six phrases, and only when reaching the fourth intent are the twenty-four realms of existence analogously set forth. Now, the correct explanation again has two [parts]: first, the explanation; second, the conclusion from 'this is' onward. Within the explanation, there are two [parts]: first, they are listed together; second, the explanation. Within the explanation, the capacity comes first, followed by the response. Within the response, there are the marking, listing, and explaining. In the explanation, for capacity, evil comes first, followed by good; for response, pity comes first, followed by benevolence. Looking back to the four intents among the previous twenty-five samādhis, [this section] omits the faults of the various realms of existence and the concluding establishment of practice. Why is this? Here, since capacity and response are clarified, practice is already established, so it is only necessary to clarify further the merits of the fundamental teaching. Moreover, the reason good is added to capacity is that [the author] wishes to clarify that capacities are all-pervasive, whereas previously only the faults were clarified, provisionally following the side of evil.
