5.70

初中,「如女」喻其生相,生順人情故說為女。當來之生欲起入於現陰身中名「入他舍」,又此凡法欲起入於菩薩身中名入他舍。生相姝好名「女端正」,諸根豐美名「貌瓌麗」,眾樂自隨名「以瓔珞莊嚴其身」。

In the first [clause], "like a woman" allegorizes the characteristic of birth; because birth accords with human desires, it is spoken of as a woman. Future birth wishing to arise and enter into the present skandha-body is called "entering another's house"; furthermore, this mundane dharma wishing to arise and enter into the bodhisattva's body is called entering another's house. The fair and pleasing characteristic of birth is called "the woman was upright and beautiful"; the richness and elegance of the sense faculties is called "her countenance was exquisite"; various pleasures naturally following along is called "her body was adorned with necklaces."
