"4. Mañjuśrī's explanation", in two parts: first, dividing the sections; second, commenting on them in sequence, in two parts: first, the direct answer; second, revealing it through metaphors, in two parts: first, indicating and dividing the sections; second, from "Just as" downwards, explaining the meaning following the text, in four parts: first, the metaphor for the seed of the disclosing cause; second, the metaphor for the seed of the conditioning cause. Jingxi says: "When the sūtra speaks of 'planting seeds in empty space', void of manure is called 'empty'; it does not mean great space. As for 'manured soil', the Shuowen says: 'Fen (manure) means to discard and remove.' The Zhouli says: 'Rang (soil) also means earth.'" Third, the metaphor for the seed of the direct cause; fourth, a general metaphor for the capacity to produce the three seeds.
