Sengzong comments: The fifth [cycle] re-elucidates the four truths. As for the ten powers up to great compassion being the path: the adamantine mind is unhindered, and the Buddha-mind is liberation; since it has the meaning of a dual path, it is provisionally designated as the path. Baoliang comments: The fifth cycle expands the three sufferings into the eight sufferings. The suffering of birth possesses two: namely, the suffering of suffering and the suffering of change. Because the craving that moistens birth derives from pleasant feeling, speaking of the result within the cause is the suffering of change. Taking the very arising of birth, there is the suffering of suffering. The mind is the very substance of suffering, falling into the hells; this is the suffering of suffering. Meeting with what is hated and the failure to obtain what one seeks are also subsumed under the suffering of suffering. The remaining five sufferings are all to be subsumed under the suffering of change.
