次「在空中」亦初約教，「七方便人」見理圓也。次「修得」下本迹也。亦先敘迹，次「若發」下明本。觀心釋中既云「依經修觀」，當知經經皆可修習，柰何章疏都不涉言，故此宗徒行解無廢，消文理觀二義無虧，冀懷道者尊之！尚之！每覩斯旨，恨己所未霑，盤桓經思，頂戴永永。於中三，初明三身各有能表及以所表，初明以觀為因、得法身果，得法身時不獨法身，故云「境智必會」。「如塔」下能表，「境智」下報身，「如釋迦」下能表，「以大報」下應身，「如分身」下能表。次「由多寶」下總舉能表，當知約觀持經方具三身。三「普賢」下引證，得三種身，皆是方等大乘教也。

Next, "being in the empty sky" is also initially in terms of the teaching: "persons of the seven skillful means" see principle as perfect. Next, the section following "acquired through practice" is origin and traces. It also first recounts the traces, and next, following "if one gives rise to", illuminates the origin. In the explanation of contemplating the mind, since it says "cultivating contemplation relying on the sūtra", it should be known that each and every sūtra can be cultivated and practiced. Alas, why do the commentaries and annotations not touch upon this at all? Therefore, among the disciples of this school, practice and understanding are not neglected, and neither of the two meanings—interpreting the text and contemplating principle—is lacking. May those who embrace the Path revere it! Value it! Whenever I behold this import, I lament what I have not yet attained, lingering and pondering it, revering it forever. Therein are three parts: first, clarifying that the three bodies each have that which signifies and that which is signified. First, it clarifies that taking contemplation as the cause attains the fruit of the dharmakāya; when attaining the dharmakāya, it is not the dharmakāya alone, hence it says "object and wisdom must converge". Following "like the tower" is that which signifies; following "object and wisdom" is the sambhogakāya; following "like Śākyamuni" is that which signifies; following "with the great reward" is the nirmāṇakāya; following "like the emanations" is that which signifies. Next, the section following "due to Prabhūtaratna" generally presents that which signifies; it should be known that only by upholding the sūtra in terms of contemplation are the three bodies fully possessed. Third, following "Samantabhadra", it cites proof: attaining the three kinds of bodies all belongs to the Vaipulya Mahāyāna teaching.
