第三「周遍」下明見敬申請。於中四：初推求。二「於中夜」下見其依報，謂表所依法光，破二邊闇故也。三「爾時善財」下見其正報。天明者，障盡位顯故。登山者，得位相應故。見外道者，證人法界故。一萬梵等者，主伴具足故。四設敬申請可知。

Third, from 'Everywhere...' downward explains seeing, paying respects, and making requests. Within this are four parts: First, inquiring and seeking. Second, from 'In the middle of the night...' downward, seeing his objective reward, meaning it signifies the light of Dharma on which he relies, which dispels the darkness of the two extremes. Third, from 'At that time Sudhana...' downward, seeing his subjective reward. The break of dawn is because obstacles are exhausted and the stage becomes manifest. Ascending the mountain is because he attained concord with the stage. Seeing the non-Buddhist is because of realizing the dharmadhātu of persons. The ten thousand Brahmās, etc., is because host and retinue are fully complete. Fourth, paying respects and making requests, which can be understood.
