疏「攝即包含」者,疏家轉將攝義復釋於含,以前標云以含攝故,故牒釋也。疏「言三藏」下,第二別釋,分二:先三藏、後二藏。前中三:初總列、次「初中」下別釋、後「然此三藏」下總顯所詮。二中,三藏即為三別,皆先標、後釋。疏「今初亦名」下釋也。於中四:一會梵音、二敘古譯、三敘古破、四會順違。今初。言「梵音素怛纜」者,唐三藏譯云「是中天之語,什公多譯為修多羅,亦云修妬路,多通諸天。什公是龜茲人,近於東天。實叉三藏于闐國人,多近東北。然什公亦遊五天,隨時所受小有輕重,語其大旨理則無乖。然前後三藏多云修多羅也。」「梵音楚夏」者,秦洛謂之中華,亦名華夏,亦云中夏。淮南楚地非是中方,楚洛言音呼召輕重。今西域梵語有似於斯,中天如中夏,餘四如楚蜀。西來三藏,或有南天、或有北天、或有中天,東西各異。
When the commentary says 'subsuming is containing,' the commentator takes the meaning of 'subsuming' and further explains it as 'containing'; because he previously stated 'because of containing and subsuming,' he repeats and explains it. From the commentary's 'As for the three piṭakas...' downward, the second specific explanation is divided into two: first, the three piṭakas; second, the two piṭakas. In the former are three parts: first, general enumeration; second, from 'Within the first' downward, specific explanation; third, from 'However, these three piṭakas...' downward, generally showing what is expressed. In the second part, the three piṭakas constitute three divisions, all first presenting and then explaining. From the commentary's 'Now, the first is also named...' downward, it explains. Within this are four points: 1. reconciling the Sanskrit phonetics; 2. recounting ancient translations; 3. recounting ancient refutations; 4. reconciling accord and discord. This is the first. Regarding 'The Sanskrit phonetic sūtra (sūtraṃ)': the Tang Tripiṭaka Master translated it saying, 'This is the language of Central India. Master Shi [Kumārajīva] mostly translated it as xiuduoluo (sūtra), or as xiudulu, which largely communicated with the various regions of India. Master Shi was from Kucha, close to Eastern India. Tripiṭaka Master Śikṣānanda was from Khotan, mostly close to the Northeast. However, Master Shi also travelled through the five Indias, and depending on what he received over time there were minor differences in tone and weight, but speaking of their general purport, the principle was not discordant. Yet earlier and later Tripiṭaka masters mostly said xiuduoluo.' Regarding 'The Sanskrit phonetics have variations like Chu and Xia': Qin and Luoyang were called Zhonghua (Central Cathay), also named Huaxia, and also called Zhongxia. Huainan is the land of Chu and not the central region; the phonetic pronunciations and callings of Chu and Luoyang differ in tone and weight. Now the Sanskrit language of the Western Regions resembles this: Central India is like Zhongxia, and the other four are like Chu and Shu. Among the Tripiṭaka masters who came from the west, some were from Southern India, some from Northern India, and some from Central India, with the east and west each being different.
