第三說佛出世所由者，如來出世寄位示真，若見如來始成正覺及正像末三時教者，非正覺見、非見佛出興，此乃劣解眾生且如是見，求正覺者不應如是。

> Third, explaining the reason for the Buddha's appearance in the world: when the Tathāgata appears in the world, he provisionally uses stages to show what is real. If one sees the Tathāgata as having just attained right awakening and teaching in the three periods of the true, counterfeit, and degenerate Dharma, this is not the view of right awakening, nor is it seeing the Buddha's advent. These are views held temporarily by sentient beings of inferior understanding; those seeking right awakening should not be like this.
