維摩經略疏 6.98

From "Vimalakīrti..." onward is the fourth, Vimalakīrti accepts and redirects it. Śāntamati's sincere devotion was deep and difficult to abruptly contravene; it also manifests that for the sake of transforming sentient beings, the bodhisattva accepts all feelings by non-acceptance, and having accepted, redirects them to the two fields of compassion and reverence. The text has four [parts]: first, redirecting [the offering] to the two fields of compassion and reverence; second, the assembly sees the necklace upon that Buddha; third, Vimalakīrti briefly explains the assembly of the Dharma-gift; fourth, the beggars in the city generate the bodhicitta. The first part manifests that the fields of merit are non-dual, which is the assembly of the Dharma-gift.
