○第四明入實相門中為二:初明來意,次正開章解釋。初文二:初正明來意,次「下文」下引證。又三:初正教門。次「佛子」下明行門功能,教能通行、使行入理,故云「成佛」。此中具明十六皆為實門,文中雖無開廢等文,意在第九卷,故此不論。三結名。

Section 4: Explaining the doors of entering the true aspect has two parts: first, explaining the underlying purpose; second, directly opening the chapters and explaining. In the first text there are two parts: first, directly explaining the underlying purpose; second, from “The lower text” onward, citing scriptural proof. This also has three parts: first, the door of direct teaching; second, from “Disciples of the Buddha” onward, explaining the functions of the door of practice—teaching can lead through practice, causing practice to enter principle, hence it is said “attaining Buddhahood.” Here it fully explains that all sixteen are true doors; although the text lacks passages on opening and discarding, the intention lies in the ninth fascicle, so this is not discussed here. Third, concluding with the names.
