後別辨中，有五對十句。一境行相對。以境為宗，用行為趣。或反此，以修起智，會同真境故。問：宗趣何別？答：語之所表曰宗，宗之所歸名趣。總中宗即趣，此中分辨也。二理事相對。以事為宗，理為趣。或反上，以依理得成緣起事故。三教義相對。教為宗，義為趣。或反上，以義深令教實故。四因果相對。因宗，果趣。或反上，以舉果意為成因故。五人法相對。集眾人為宗，說法為趣。或反上，以法成人故。

In the subsequent specific discernment, there are five pairs and ten propositions. First is the pair of object and practice: taking the object as the core focus and using practice as the intent; or the reverse of this, because cultivation gives rise to wisdom, which accords with the true object. Question: What is the difference between core focus and intent? Answer: What words express is called the core focus; that to which the core focus tends is called the intent. In the general treatment, core focus is just intent; here they are distinguished. Second is the pair of principle and phenomena: taking phenomena as the core focus and principle as the intent; or the reverse of the above, because by relying on principle the phenomena of pratītyasamutpāda can be accomplished. Third is the pair of teaching and meaning: teaching is the core focus and meaning is the intent; or the reverse of the above, because the profound meaning makes the teaching real. Fourth is the pair of cause and result: cause is the core focus and result is the intent; or the reverse of the above, because adducing the result is intended to accomplish the cause. Fifth is the pair of person and Dharma: gathering the assembly of persons is the core focus, and expounding the Dharma is the intent; or the reverse of the above, because the Dharma accomplishes the person.
