9.19

「行色至為勝」,二、明行上界非道通達佛道。所以約上界者,此二界是世間善,若因中生著是菩薩縛,若受果報即長壽天難,即非佛道。菩薩從假入空以無所受而受此因果,不以為勝,以非出世觀練薰修之勝法也。而於此非道修白色三昧乃至我三昧等十一三昧,未是自行化他一切佛法,終不滅受取證,即能通達佛道也。

"Practicing form" down to "take it as superior" is the second part: explaining practicing the non-ways of the higher realms to penetrate the Buddha's path. The reason for taking the higher realms is that these two realms are worldly good; if one gives rise to attachment while in the cause, it is a bodhisattva's bondage, and if one receives the retribution, it is the difficulty of long-lived gods, which is not the Buddha's path. The bodhisattva enters emptiness from the provisional, and through non-reception receives these causes and fruits without considering them superior, because they are not the superior dharmas of world-transcending contemplation, training, suffusion, and cultivation. Yet within these non-ways, he cultivates the eleven samādhis from the White Samādhi up to the Self Samādhi; since they are not yet all the Buddhadharmas of his own practice and transforming others, he never extinguishes reception to attain realization, and thus can penetrate the Buddha's path.
