Question: By what definitive standard should this be judged? Answer: When the Vaipulya Mahāyāna is expounded with a single voice, what obstacle is there to a general exhortation? Responding in accordance with capacity, it cannot be definitively judged. Furthermore, in terms of the different responses to the various flavors, here in the Vaipulya the four causes attain two kinds of fruits, which can be understood by comparison; therefore, what is now exhorted either repays the preceding two contemplations by presenting the fruits of two buddhas, or, through a single voice evoking different understandings according to their faculties and dispositions, they cultivate the cause looking toward the fruit.
