經云「忍力成就」至「少欲知足」者,述云:此第二、修對治也。忍力者,即安受苦、耐怨害、察法忍也。以此忍力能忍損惱,故離三覺三想。少欲當利、知足現利,故不著色等。

Regarding the passage from "the power of endurance was accomplished" to "having few desires and knowing contentment": The commentary states: This second part is cultivating the antidotes. "The power of endurance" refers to the patience of accepting suffering, the patience of enduring resentment and harm, and the patience of discerning dharmas. With this power of endurance, being able to endure harm and annoyance, he therefore leaves the three thoughts and three perceptions. Having few desires pertains to future benefits; knowing contentment pertains to present benefits; therefore, he does not attach to forms and so forth.
