13.11

二正住地中，廣顯緣起義，略作四門：一總明法界緣起、二別辨十二有支、三料簡分齊、四正釋本文。初法界緣起略有三義：一約染法緣起、二約淨法、三染淨合說。初中有四門：一緣集一心門、二攝本從末門、三攝末從本門、四本末依持門，並如別說。二淨法緣起者亦有四門：一本有、二修生、三本有修生、四修生本有，如下〈性起〉處說。三染淨合說者亦四門：一翻染現淨門、二以淨應染門、三會染即淨門、四染盡淨泯門，亦如別說。第二別明十二有支者，具如別章。

Second, within properly abiding in the bhūmi, extensively revealing the meaning of dependent origination, four gates are briefly established: first, generally clarifying the dependent origination of the dharmadhātu; second, specifically analyzing the twelve factors of existence; third, discerning distinctions; fourth, properly explaining the text. First, the dependent origination of the dharmadhātu briefly has three meanings: first, dependent origination in terms of defiled phenomena; second, in terms of pure phenomena; third, combined explanation of defilement and purity. Within the first there are four gates: first, the gate of conditions converging in one mind; second, the gate of subsuming the root into the branches; third, the gate of subsuming the branches into the root; fourth, the gate of mutual dependence of root and branches; all are as explained elsewhere. Second, dependent origination of pure phenomena also has four gates: first, fundamentally existing; second, produced through cultivation; third, fundamentally existing and produced through cultivation; fourth, produced through cultivation and fundamentally existing; as explained below in the section on "Nature Manifestation." Third, the combined explanation of defilement and purity also has four gates: first, the gate of overturning defilement to manifest purity; second, the gate of responding to defilement with purity; third, the gate of converging defilement to be identical with purity; fourth, the gate of the exhaustion of defilement and the cessation of purity; also as explained elsewhere. Second, specifically explaining the twelve factors of existence is fully set forth in a separate chapter.
