3.19

Next, from "Worldly" onward, is an analysis to resolve doubts, not being counted among the fifteen rounds, because the preceding text said that within the worldly there is no supreme truth. Now it is asked: Do the siddhāntas of the person and the remedy have the supreme truth, and does the supreme truth have the [other] three? Therefore the present text states that they generate one another in turn: because of contemplating the worldly, one produces good; because of producing good, one destroys evil; because evil is destroyed, one sees the principle; within the principle, then, there is neither the worldly nor the others. Thus when good arises, evil is extinguished; if they mutually exist and do not exist, one will never see the principle. Next, regarding the four siddhāntas: individually establishing the four siddhāntas is again citing the original text of the Da zhidu lun above; since the text itself has each complete, this explanation is made. Next is treating the four siddhāntas in a comprehensive manner.
