第二一段長行有四十四行經,約分為七段。一「爾時解脫月」已下至「亦能滿足」有兩行半經,明解脫月所問諸地滿足一切菩提分法分。二「金剛藏菩薩言」已下至「第十無功用行」可有十行經,明答前所問十地已來諸地解行差別分。三「佛子譬如有二世界」已下至「乃能得過」有五行半經,明此地菩薩以願力故入染淨二行,不住其中分。四「解脫月菩薩言」已下至「超過人位」有八行半經,明舉喻況說此地所行染淨二行非淨非染分。五「佛子菩薩亦復如是」已下至「得一切盡超過故」可有六行經,明七地有功用行,八地無功用行分。六「佛子此第七地」已下至「不名無者」有三行半經,明此地不名有煩惱不名無煩惱分。七「佛子菩薩住此第七地」已下至「轉勝圓滿」有九行半經,明拔世悉達為大明師分。於此四十四行半經中,從初爾時解脫月問金剛藏菩薩言:「佛子菩薩但於此第七地中滿足一切菩提分法?為諸地中亦能滿足」者,若以同相門中,總是一箇如來根本普光明大智寂用無礙自體菩提。若望修行者進勝,即異相門中總有五十種菩提隨行差別。大體總相但約此十地差別菩提以為昇進之大體。從此十種地中菩提,總以五種菩提以為大體。五種菩提者,一空無相菩提、二普光明無依住智菩提、三大願能起大智大悲廣利眾生菩提、四以其大悲能隨染淨不染淨菩提、五智悲萬行圓滿無作菩提。夫菩提者,此云覺也。覺者,普通眾法無過也。云無上者,但一乘,非三乘也。
The second prose section has forty-four and a half lines of text, divided roughly into seven sections. First, from "At that time Vimukticandra" down to "also fully perfected" consists of two and a half lines of text, explaining the section where Vimukticandra asks whether all the grounds fully perfect all factors of awakening. Second, from "Vajragarbha Bodhisattva said" down to "the tenth, effortless practice" consists of about ten lines of text, explaining the section answering the previous question concerning the differences in understanding and practice of the grounds up to the ten grounds. Third, from "Sons of the Buddha, just as there are two worlds" down to "is only then able to cross over" consists of five and a half lines of text, explaining the section showing that the bodhisattva of this ground, by the power of vows, engages in both defiled and pure practices without abiding in either. Fourth, from "Vimukticandra Bodhisattva said" down to "surpassing the human stage" consists of eight and a half lines of text, explaining the section using a simile to show that the defiled and pure practices performed on this ground are neither pure nor defiled. Fifth, from "Sons of the Buddha, the bodhisattva is also like this" down to "because all is completely surpassed" consists of about six lines of text, explaining the section on the effortful practice of the seventh ground and the effortless practice of the eighth ground. Sixth, from "Sons of the Buddha, this seventh ground" down to "is not called being without" consists of three and a half lines of text, explaining the section showing that this ground is neither called having afflictions nor called lacking afflictions. Seventh, from "Sons of the Buddha, when a bodhisattva abides in this seventh ground" down to "increasingly superior and perfected" consists of nine and a half lines of text, explaining the section on delivering the world's Siddhārtha to become a great illuminating teacher. In these forty-four and a half lines of text, at the beginning, when Vimukticandra asks Vajragarbha Bodhisattva, "Sons of the Buddha, does a bodhisattva only in this seventh ground fully perfect all factors of awakening? Or can they also be fully perfected in each of the grounds?": if seen through the gate of sameness, all is collectively the one self-nature awakening of the Tathāgata's fundamental, universally illuminating great wisdom whose quiescence and function are unhindered. If viewed in terms of the practitioner's advancing superiority, then through the gate of difference there are altogether fifty kinds of awakening that differ according to practice. In general overall terms, it is simply based on the differentiated awakenings of these ten grounds that the general framework of advancement is established. Across the awakenings in these ten kinds of grounds, five kinds of awakening are taken as the general framework: 1. Awakening of emptiness and signlessness; 2. Awakening of universally illuminating, non-abiding wisdom; 3. Awakening whose great vows can give rise to great wisdom and great compassion to extensively benefit sentient beings; 4. Awakening that, through its great compassion, can follow defilement and purity without being defiled or purified; 5. Awakening of effortless action wherein wisdom, compassion, and the myriad practices are fully perfected. Now, as for 'awakening' (bodhi), it is translated here as 'enlightenment' (jue). 'Enlightenment' means universally pervading all phenomena without fault. It is called 'unexcelled' because it pertains only to the One Vehicle, not the Three Vehicles.
