第五善自他宗不妄破斥者，謂昔人所引經論及破他義，無問性相，多不窮於始末，輒引輒破。或多用法相，而復盡呼為權，引權釋實又不分通局，疑誤後學。或以昔正為非，或復以權為實。今亦反此，若破若引，先示彼義，使性相無虧，盡其意態，後申此理，對決分明，使學者不滯迹迷宗、不謬非古義，亦無勞周覽更復傍求。

> Fifth, "being adept in one's own and others' tenets without recklessly refuting them": former scholars, in citing sūtras and treatises and refuting others' tenets, regardless of whether nature or characteristics, mostly failed to exhaust the beginning and the end, recklessly citing and recklessly refuting. Or they frequently used the characteristics of dharmas, yet dismissed them all as provisional; or they cited the provisional to explain the real, yet failed to distinguish the broad from the restricted, thereby confusing and misleading later students. Some took what was correct in the past to be wrong, or again took the provisional to be real. Now I reverse this: whether refuting or citing, I first present the other's meaning, ensuring nature and characteristics suffer no loss, exhausting their bearing and substance; thereafter I set forth this principle, resolving and deciding with clarity, so that students do not cling to traces and lose the tenets, nor mistakenly negate ancient meanings, nor need to labor in wide reading and searching elsewhere.
