Third, the accomplishments of the Dharma master. In "directly revealing," there are two: first, a general outline; second, from "then the former" onward, analytical discrimination. Within this, there are three: first, discrimination of the two divisions; second, from "also the former" onward, correlating and explaining the thematic text; third, from "herein" onward, discrimination subsuming the stages. In the commentary, from "now first, listing beforehand" onward, the text has three parts: first, generally presenting the intention; next, from "the first three" onward, a general outline; later, from "first, maintaining the meaning" onward, particular explanations. However, viewing the Dharma from the standpoint of the person, all ten are what is maintained; in terms of the three karmic activities, there are also the active and the passive. Within the first three, of the mind: three—what is maintained by meaning and teaching—are the bodily karma of being able to know; among the three, it generally subsumes the active and passive, with the first two subsumed under direct reward and the last one subsumed under circumstantial reward; among the latter four, of speech: the seventh is subsumed under teaching, the eighth under eloquence, and the ninth and tenth under what is expounded, being profound and vast. As for "the ninth, inexhaustible delighted speech, profound exposition": "profound" is with respect to tallying with the principle—how could it ever end? The rest can be understood.
