二、「初文」下,刪略因依,二:初、後學嫌繁。「緇素」,即僧俗也。西土僧服染衣,俗服白衣,故曰緇素。此方以六入為玄、七入為緇,緇實黑色。釋子所服壞色,非五方正色及間色,但壞色近緇色,故謂緇衣,實非緇色。「深見」下,茲疏所談三觀四教旨遠辭高,故非淺識之所好也。「但云」下,雖皆傾慕,咸病繁廣。

Second, from "initial text" below, the basis for abridging, in two parts: first, later scholars dislike its prolixity. "Black and white" refers to the sangha and the laity. In the Western land, the monks wear dyed robes, and the laity wear white robes; hence they are called the black and the white. In this land, the six-entry dye makes xuan, and the seven-entry dye makes zi; zi is actually black. The robes worn by the sons of Śākya are in destroyed colors, not the primary or intermediate colors of the five directions; however, because destroyed color is close to black, they are called black robes, though in fact they are not black. From "profound insight" below: the threefold contemplation and fourfold teaching discussed in this commentary have profound purports and elevated language, so they are not favored by those of shallow knowledge. From "only saying" below: though all admired it, they all found its prolixity troublesome.
