第四「答言」下示己法界。於中二：初歎發心；二正授法界中，先舉所知法門、後結名字。前中三：初列所知香體，有三十種，於中先知世間依正香熏習、二「除滅煩惱」下知出世間正行香熏習，菩薩以此饒益眾生。二「彼香生起」下明知香法義有十種：一知所因起、二知香氣至處、三知至已成益、四所作圓滿、五能令喜悅清淨、六令離惱安隱、七巧便入法、八所知分齊、九所作行業、十究竟根本。三「善男子」下知香業用，略舉十種：初內以十義知之。龍鬪生者，知生起也。光雲覆甘味國者，知所行也。降香水者，知成就也。著身金色者，知具足也。聞香歡樂者，知清淨也。滅一切病等者，知安穩也。專向等者，是方便也。我知彼等者，是境界也。為說法者，是行業也。令發心不退者，是根本也。牛頭香等九種，皆各有十義，文中存略故，或二或三等，准之。先陀婆，此云石鹽名也。

Fourth, from "replied, saying" downward, he reveals his own dharmadhātu. Therein are two parts: first, praising the arousal of the mind [for bodhi]; second, properly transmitting the dharmadhātu, in which he first presents the Dharma gates he understands, and later concludes with their names. In the former, there are three parts: first, listing the substances of incense he understands, of which there are thirty types. Therein, he first understands the perfuming by the incense of the mundane realm's dependencies and primary states, and second, from "extinguishing defilements" downward, he understands the perfuming by the incense of supramundane correct practice, by which the bodhisattva benefits sentient beings. Second, from "the arising of that incense" downward, it explains that there are ten aspects to knowing the principles of the incense: 1. knowing that from which it arises; 2. knowing where the fragrance reaches; 3. knowing the benefits accomplished once reached; 4. the completion of what is done; 5. enabling joy and purity; 6. causing freedom from affliction and tranquility; 7. skillfully entering the Dharma; 8. the scope of what is known; 9. the karmic actions performed; 10. the ultimate root. Third, from "Good man" downward, he knows the karmic functions of the incense, briefly mentioning ten types: the first internally knows it through ten meanings. Arising from dragons fighting means knowing its arising. The cloud of light covering the land of sweet taste means knowing what it carries out. Raining down fragrant water means knowing its accomplishment. The golden color of the body upon contact means knowing its fulfillment. Feeling joy upon smelling the fragrance means knowing its purity. Extinguishing all illnesses and so forth means knowing its tranquility. Dedicated orientation and so forth is upāya. Knowing them is the sphere. Preaching the Dharma for them is the karmic action. Causing them to arouse the mind without retreating is the root. The nine types such as ox-head sandalwood each also have ten meanings; because the text preserves brevity, it mentions two or three, etc., which should be inferred accordingly. Saindhava translates here as rock salt.
