大般涅槃經義記 7.144

7.144

合中，但合菩薩奉行喻，於中三句次第合之：「菩薩如是於生死中不失念慧」合臣受教，盡心堅持；「雖見」已下合第二句；「若見」已下合第三句，念慧成故，雖見淨色，不生色相，乃至不作和合之相。

In the application, it only applies the analogy of the bodhisattva practicing in accordance with it. In this, the three clauses are applied in sequence: 'The bodhisattva thus does not lose mindfulness and wisdom in birth and death' applies the minister receiving the command and upholding it with wholehearted devotion. From 'although seeing...' below applies the second clause. From 'if seeing...' below applies the third clause: because mindfulness and wisdom are perfected, although seeing pure form, they do not give rise to the mark of form, up to not making the mark of combination.
