答文有三：一答前自分、二「又復修習增上十法」下答前他分問、三「菩薩如是觀者」下結梵行成益耳。初文有三：初辨尋思、二「正念」下辨正觀、三「是名」下結。初文有二：初辨尋思、二「又知過去」下明如實。初復分三：初舉十法明所觀，此有二：初總、次別；次「應如是」下正明觀；三「當如是」下結。何者梵行體？理實自體發中正智是也。何故法慧菩薩說者？圓通性德，非順法之慧不明也。十中前六是行及行緣，四所信境，故偏說也。餘相可知。如實文有二：初辨觀行、二「此梵行法」下反驗。第二菩薩正念無障礙者，辨正觀。文有三：初辨無相、二「如是觀者」下辨依他無生、三「一切佛」下辨真實無性法。喻可知。第二勝進，文有三：一自利，有四句，謂立、問、答、結，可知。二「如是觀察」下明利他，有句。三「如幻」下喻說。前二無體如幻、現實如夢、起用如電、緣聚如響、成事如化也。第三結利自他文，亦可答上速成問也。有二：初牒、次結益。益文有二：初結前少行多能，有二可知；二「初發心時」下成疾所以，有二可知。言即菩提者，有二：一約位，即十解菩提；二約解，覺正理也。餘信、行、證等准以知之。又即普賢證得自體圓明究竟因果，此解約一乘耳。

The answering text has three parts: first, answering the earlier question on one's own stage; second, from 'further cultivating the ten superior dharmas' onward, answering the earlier question on the other stage; third, from 'when a bodhisattva contemplates thus' onward, concluding with the benefits of accomplishing brahmacaryā. The first text has three parts: first, distinguishing inquiry; second, from 'right mindfulness' onward, distinguishing correct contemplation; third, from 'this is named' onward, concluding. The first text has two parts: first, distinguishing inquiry; second, from 'and knowing the past' onward, clarifying reality as it is. The first is further divided into three: first, adducing ten dharmas to clarify what is contemplated—this has two parts, first general, then specific; second, from 'should be thus' onward, directly clarifying the contemplation; third, from 'must be thus' onward, concluding. What is the essence of brahmacaryā? Truly, it is the correct wisdom within the arousal from the intrinsic essence. Why does the bodhisattva Dharmamati speak? The nature-virtue of perfect penetration cannot be made clear except through the wisdom that accords with the Dharma. Among the ten, the first six are practice and the conditions of practice, and the [remaining] four are the objects of faith; hence they are spoken of specifically. The remaining characteristics may be known. The text on reality as it is has two parts: first, distinguishing the practice of contemplation; second, from 'this dharma of brahmacaryā' onward, testing by inversion. Second, the bodhisattva's unimpeded right mindfulness distinguishes correct contemplation. The text has three parts: first, distinguishing signlessness; second, from 'one who contemplates thus' onward, distinguishing dependent arising without production; third, from 'all buddhas' onward, distinguishing the true dharma of non-nature. The similes may be known. Second, superior progression: the text has three parts: first, benefiting oneself, which has four phrases, namely proposition, question, answer, and conclusion, as may be known; second, from 'contemplating thus' onward, clarifying benefiting others, which has phrases; third, from 'like an illusion' onward, explanation through similes. The first two are without substantial essence, like an illusion; manifesting in reality, like a dream; giving rise to function, like lightning; assembling conditions, like an echo; accomplishing matters, like a magical creation. Third, the text concluding the benefits for oneself and others can also answer the earlier question on speedy accomplishment. It has two parts: first, recapitulation; second, concluding the benefits. The text on benefits has two parts: first, concluding the preceding 'few practices, many capabilities', which has two parts as may be known; second, from 'at the time of first arousing the mind' onward, the reason for accomplishing it rapidly, which has two parts as may be known. The statement that it is immediately bodhi has two meanings: first, in terms of stage, it is the bodhi of the Ten Abodes; second, in terms of understanding, it is awakening to the correct principle. The remaining faith, practice, realization, and so forth may be understood accordingly. Furthermore, it means Samantabhadra's realization of the intrinsically complete, luminous, and ultimate cause and fruit; this interpretation pertains only to the Ekayāna.
