Regarding the Commentary's statement, "The seventh, King Anivartana (Wuyanzu), is assigned to unattached practice," this is because through upāya he traverses phenomenal existence without being deluded by emptiness; phenomena and principle are unhindered, neither discarded nor accepted, hence it is called "unattached." Regarding the Commentary's "First, recollecting the teaching produces benefit," there are seventeen minds: the first, joy, is the general one, and the remaining sixteen are specific. First is pure faith: faithfully delighting in hearing the Dharma; second is converting those below while seeking above; third is delighting in the Dharma to gladden the spirit; fourth is courageously seeking and advancing; fifth is rejoicing in what has been attained; sixth is the parallel flowing of compassion and wisdom; seventh is neither grasping nor arising; eighth is adorning oneself with virtues; ninth is being unattached to the myriad realms; tenth is not being hindered in initiating cultivation; eleventh is the equal impartiality of self and others; twelfth is not being driven by the mind; thirteenth is abiding without abiding; fourteenth is matching principle in universal pervasion; fifteenth is seeing the adornment of the Buddha's marks; sixteenth is not abandoning the Buddha's wisdom. In the Commentary's "Later, the practices are profound and abstruse," the Commentary's text has five parts: first, a general indication to induce faith; second, from "However, Sudhana" downward, questioning his doubtful mind; third, from "contrary practices" downward, bringing forth the meaning of his doubt; fourth, from "coveting benefit" downward, resolving his implicit objection; fifth, from "the words 'profound and abstruse'" downward, revealing their profound abstruseness, first indicating and then proving, as can be known.
