Second, discussion, in two parts: first, question; second, answer, in two parts: first, explaining that the five gates are all teachings; second, concluding with the four siddhāntas, in two parts: first, explaining by taking the former three and the latter one. The words 'The commentary says…' mean: these four siddhāntas are all spoken in terms of principle; they vary temporarily according to capacity, but have definitely no shallowness or depth. Second, from 'Also by' onward, explaining by taking both former and latter as four. Since they complete each other, both former and latter are four. With speech or without words, how do the four benefits differ? Ultimately, what they return to returns equally to the Way. Second, citing two treatises to verify and complete [the teaching], in two parts: first, verifying the four gates, in two parts: first, citing the treatises; second, from 'If real' onward, explaining the meaning, in two parts: first, explaining the meaning of the gates; second, from 'Like this' onward, showing benefit and loss. As for 'being burned by the fire of wrong views': if one does not grasp fire, it has the function of warming the body and cooking food; if one grasps it, it has the disaster of scorching the flesh and burning the hands. The application to the Dharma can be understood. Second, from 'If because' onward, concluding by showing the fifth, in two parts: first, concluding the preceding to generate what follows; second, from 'This non-' onward, revealing the meaning in relation to the above. Jingxi says: It also refers separately to the perfect teaching, because above he already determined that the bodhisattvas belong to the separate teaching, and thus the ineffable belongs to the explanation of the perfect teaching. This is also temporarily determined following the text. If spoken from the distant intention of the thirty-two persons, what they entered was also the ineffable. As for 'one who attains the perfect meaning': above, it was also determined that each and every one of the thirty-two persons mutually interpenetrated, thereby forming the perfect meaning; thus here one may make this explanation. As for 'the ineffable gate is also like this': because the four gates of the separate and perfect teachings each have a fifth ineffable gate, it is called ineffable. When its gate also universally includes and encompasses everything, only then does it belong to the perfect gate. Second, from 'Wordless' onward, specifically showing wordlessness, in two parts: first, universally showing the six kinds, in two parts: first, universally clarifying in terms of internal and external, in five parts: first, Dīrghanakha (Long Nails), in two parts: first, directly showing, in two parts: first, clarifying the wrong attachment. Dīrghanakha is Mahākoṣṭhila, translated here as Great Knee, the maternal uncle of Śāriputra. Traditionally, he had defeated his sister in debate; but when she conceived Śāriputra, he could not defeat her in debate. He knew that the one she carried had wisdom; if relying on debate was already like this, how much more so once born! Thereupon he left home, went to South India, and read the eighteen scriptures, vowing to read without resting; having no leisure to cut his nails, the people of the time called him the Long-Nail Brahmin. Having completed his studies, he returned home and asked where his nephew was; people said he was a disciple of the Buddha. He became immensely conceited, thinking: 'At eight years old, my nephew's fame shook the five Indias. What technique does that renunciant have to entice my sister's son?' He went straight to the Buddha's dwelling; after pondering for a long time, not a single dharma entered his mind. He said to the Buddha: 'I accept no dharmas.' 'Accept' means peace [and settle]. This means: 'I can refute all dharmas so that they cannot be at peace, which is why I say I accept no dharmas.' As for 'poisonous air': this is the false attachment within the mind of the three poisons. It should say 'all are the three poisons'; the text's 'says poison' is a clerical error. Second, from 'Buddha's mind' onward, revealing the Buddha's refutation. 'The Buddha's mind has no three poisons' reveals that the Buddha's compassionate mind refutes his wrong attachment. From 'Your' onward, directly setting forth the Buddha's refutation. First, taking up his assertion and cross-examining him to settle it. 'Your non-acceptance' takes up his assertion. 'Do you accept this view or not?' is the cross-examination, meaning: 'You give rise to the view of non-acceptance. Does your inner mind accept this view or not?' From 'If the view' onward, bringing out the intention of the Buddha's challenge, refuting both sides of his attachment. First refuting acceptance, then refuting non-acceptance. The first intention: if this view of yours is accepted in your mind, how can you say you accept nothing? Because your viewing mind is also among all dharmas. Next, refuting non-acceptance: it should say 'if you view it as not accepted', but now saying 'do not view' is inverted phrasing. If your view is also not accepted, how can you, seeing others accept, wish to refute them? Since you hold to yourself and refute others, it proves that your mind has acceptance. 'You accept acceptance' means: your mind accepts the view of non-acceptance; this view is itself acceptance, hence it is said 'you accept acceptance.' 'Acceptance is the truth of suffering': there are three feelings (acceptances)—praise and joy are pleasant feeling, blame and anger are painful feeling, neither praise nor blame giving rise to delusion is neutral feeling. Pleasant feeling has the suffering of decay, painful feeling has the suffering of suffering itself, and neutral feeling has the suffering of conditioned existence; hence it is said that feeling is the truth of suffering. 'Transmigrating through birth and death': because origination induces suffering, one receives birth in the five destinies; hence it is said that one fully experiences all feelings. From 'How' onward, the Buddha concludes with a rebuke. Second, from 'Therefore know' onward, setting aside errors: second, Vātsīputrīya; third, Tripiṭaka; fourth, Common teaching; fifth, Separate and Perfect. Second, pointing out in terms of the correct teaching. Second, from 'Now this' onward, specifically revealing the present meaning, in two parts: first, showing the meaning based on the text, in two parts: first, contrasting and discerning the Separate and Perfect. Because here the noble ones each enter [one gate], this constitutes the separate meaning, and thus Mañjuśrī's also becomes separate. If viewed in terms of each mutually interpenetrating, this constitutes the perfect meaning, and now it is also perfect. At a first pass, one temporarily divides this as perfect and the former as separate; at a second pass, in clarifying the meaning, the former and latter encompass and interpenetrate. Although an explanation according to the separate is made, the perfect is taken as correct. Second, from 'Taking the text' onward, interrogating the text to reveal what it contains, in two parts: first, interrogating the text and establishing the general principle. Since Mañjuśrī says all dharmas are ineffable and so forth, we know that all things encompass the four teachings and non-Buddhist teachings as all ineffable. If so, why is it said that Mañjuśrī speaks of the perfect non-duality? Precisely because encompassing the ordinary and the Hinayana reveals the perfect gate; that is, one mind fundamentally possesses the ten realms—the six ordinary and four noble. The ordinary corresponds to non-Buddhists, the noble encompasses the four teachings, and the nine realms are themselves the Buddha, all being identical to emptiness and the middle; thus all are ineffable, and the purport of perfect harmony is revealed herein. Second, from 'Like the Nirvāṇa' onward, citing sūtras to explain and complete, in two parts: first, citing the Nirvāṇa Sūtra to clarify directly. 'Now taking the phrase "arising of arising" as belonging to ordinary beings' encompasses Dīrghanakha and the Vātsīputrīyas. 'Arising of non-arising' encompasses the Tripiṭaka and Common teachings. 'When dying to conventional truth' means the destruction of views and delusions. 'Non-arising of arising' is the ten practices of the Separate teaching, and also encompasses the eighth stage of the Common teaching. 'When first emerging from the womb': here, with the dust-and-sand delusions broken and the cognition of the paths born, it is called emerging from the womb. From 'Therefore know' onward, concluding and showing. The mundane is the wrong and non-Buddhist; the supramundane is the four teachings; what do the hundred realms in one mind not encompass? Second, citing the Lotus Sūtra to assist in revealing, in two parts: first, directly explaining in terms of the Perfect. 'All other dharmas' means the previous three teachings, wrong non-Buddhists, and so on. This expedient is identical to the real, called the expedient within the substance. None is not the Buddha-Dharma, which is why persons of the seven expedients are unable to fathom it. 'The characteristic of speech is quiescent': the provisional and real of the ten realms are all tranquil and extinguished. Second, from 'Distinguishing' onward, using an analogy to distinguish the two teachings. Second, from 'Furthermore' onward, concluding the former and raising the latter.
