二、「上果」下，隨文釋義，二：初、明佛土不同起根各異，二：初、復宗說果明佛國佛事不同，二：初、正明果，三：初、配上總明，二：初、舉前示同，二：初、明四義符同。二、「良由」下，示不次第意。文中先述意，次「類如」去，類顯。「名異義同」者，三周名異，開權義同；類今四段名殊，佛國義一。「三十六問」者，即〈長壽品〉初迦葉童子發問也。古來分問，開合不同，或三十二四六等殊。即問云何得長壽等也。「義相主對名字不同」者，佛以一十二品答三十六問。其有名義主對者，則以〈長壽品〉答云何得長壽問。〈金剛身品〉答金剛不壞身問等。復有一品而答多問，則是名字不同也。「義意若正」等者，但取與問意合，不責名異。「此中」下，結例也。以今四段對上開宗，雖不次第，同顯佛國。

Second, from "The fruit above" down, explaining the meaning according to the text, in two parts: first, clarifying that Buddha-lands differ and the rousing of faculties is each distinct, in two: first, returning to the theme to explain the fruit, clarifying the differences in the Buddha-lands and Buddha-activities, in two: first, directly clarifying the fruit, in three: first, matching with what is above to explain generally, in two: first, adducing what came before to show identity, in two: first, clarifying that the four meanings tally and are identical. Second, from "It truly stems from" down, showing the reason for not following the sequential order. In the text, he first relates the intention; next, from "It is analogous to" onward, he demonstrates it by analogy. Regarding "different names with identical meaning": the three cycles have different names, but their meaning of opening the provisional is identical; this is analogous to the present four sections having distinct names, while their meaning of the Buddha-lands is one. Regarding the "thirty-six questions": this refers to the youth Kāśyapa raising questions at the beginning of the "Chapter on Long Life." In the past, when dividing the questions, divisions and combinations differed, varying among thirty-two, [thirty-]four, [thirty-]six, etc. This refers to questions such as how one attains long life. Regarding "meanings and names mutually corresponding, while names differ": the Buddha answered thirty-six questions with twelve chapters. As for cases where name and meaning mutually correspond, he used the "Chapter on Long Life" to answer the question on how to attain long life, the "Chapter on the Diamond Body" to answer the question on the indestructible diamond body, and so forth. Furthermore, there are cases where one chapter answers multiple questions, which means their names differ. Regarding "If the intended meaning is correct" and so on: one only requires that it accords with the intention of the question, without faulting difference in names. From "Herein" down, concluding by analogy. Correlating the present four sections with the opening of the theme above, although not sequential, they equally reveal the Buddha-lands.
