「若有女人」下，第三、釋觀世身名。禮拜供養即是身業，觀察身業名觀世身。又上拔其有難，有難有二：七難是身難，三毒為心難。今拔無難，拔無難亦二：一、無男；二、無女。三者、上來是大悲拔苦，今是大悲與樂。四者、上來與眾生行果，今能滿眾生願果。行有二行，願亦有二願。

From “If there is a woman” onward is, third, explaining the name “observing the physical bodies of the world.” Paying homage and making offerings constitute physical karma; observing physical karma is named “observing the physical bodies of the world.” Moreover, the preceding eliminated their having perils, and having perils is twofold: the seven perils are perils to the body, while the three poisons are perils to the mind. Now it eliminates the peril of lacking, which is also twofold: 1. lacking a son; 2. lacking a daughter. Third, the preceding was great compassion removing suffering, whereas this is great compassion bestowing happiness. Fourth, the preceding gave sentient beings the fruits of practice, whereas this is able to fulfill the fruits of sentient beings’ vows. Practice has two practices, and vows also have two vows.
