非遠非近而論近者,初開三章作境智釋,「又觀」下全約觀釋。初文三:標門、列章、解釋。解釋者,初「觀」字標智,中間「一切法」三字標境,後「空」字文中不釋,但是結成智境。「若單論」下明境智意,智即〈方便品〉初五佛智慧,境即〈方便品〉初十如實境,但下「空」字隨位判之,但此屬弘經之行,彼屬五佛所顯。又「單論」等者,今正明觀,何以舉一切法耶?舉所顯能,故空顯於觀,一切法家之空觀也。

Regarding discussing intimacy in terms of neither distant nor intimate: first, three chapters are opened to explain them as object and wisdom; from "also contemplating" downward, it is explained entirely in terms of contemplation. The first text has three: indicating the gates, listing the chapters, and explaining. In the explanation: the initial word "contemplate" indicates wisdom; the middle three words "all dharmas" indicate the object; the final word "empty" is not explained in the text, but merely concludes and completes the wisdom and object. From "if solely discussing" downward, it clarifies the meaning of object and wisdom: wisdom is the wisdom of the five Buddhas at the beginning of the "Skillful Means Chapter"; object is the true object of the ten suchnesses at the beginning of the "Skillful Means Chapter"; but the word "empty" below is judged according to stage. However, this belongs to the practice of propagating the sūtra, while that belongs to what is revealed by the five Buddhas. Furthermore, as for "solely discussing" and so forth: now, directly clarifying contemplation, why does he adduce all dharmas? Adducing what is revealed brings forth what can reveal; therefore, emptiness reveals contemplation—it is the contemplation of emptiness belonging to all dharmas.
