Fayao states: "This introduces the secret of the Tathāgata's physical manifestations." Sengzong states: "Although the secret words have already been cleared away, sentient beings were still not free from perplexity regarding the beginning and end of a single transforming lifespan taking birth. Therefore, [the Buddha] points to specific matters and clears them away extensively so as to disclose the provisional traces. There are two distinctions: first, discussing the bodhisattvas in general; second, discussing the traces of Śākyamuni."
