就初中有四句:一約大位以分前五位等總為因行,後成佛等總為果行。二細剋而辨二百門行,一一皆悉徹於佛果,是故諸文之末悉皆結云「即得佛」等也,是則皆通因果二位。三或總屬因位,以普賢位中亦現成佛攝生等故。四或總屬果,以下文多云「雖得成佛而不斷菩薩所行」,是故此行皆是果行。
Under the first [gate], there are four propositions: First, distinguishing according to the major stages, the prior five stages and so forth are altogether causal practices, while the subsequent attainment of Buddhahood and so forth is altogether fruition practice. Second, precisely distinguishing them in detail, the practices of the two hundred approaches each fully penetrate to the Buddha-fruition; therefore, the ends of the various passages all conclude by saying "immediately attains Buddhahood" and so forth, meaning they all communicate across both causal and fruition stages. Third, or they altogether belong to the causal stage, because within the stage of Samantabhadra one also manifests the attainment of Buddhahood to gather in sentient beings, and so forth. Fourth, or they altogether belong to fruition, because the text below repeatedly states, "Although attaining Buddhahood, one does not sever what is practiced by bodhisattvas"; therefore, these practices are all fruition practices.
