Sengzong comments: Previously, amṛta was cited, and its purport was briefly revealed. Here, fine metaphors are cited again to show that it is not poison. Below, the two persons—the foolish and the wise—are explained, and the meaning becomes immediately clear. Baoliang says: For those who recognize amṛta, before long the metaphor of the five flavors is cited again. Zhixiu says: The four stanzas below represent the third intent: citing the metaphor again reveals that the substance of the medicine is one, but becomes two according to whether one is foolish or wise.
