二、「上句」下，結釋。上句即「久積淨業」，下句即「導眾以寂」。荊溪云：示釋成相。又上形益中兼出心德以顯於形，故知聲益亦依於心，故以色釋色、以心釋心。聲從於口，三輪具足，故知以能導眾必專於心，故用二義以釋兩字。若用此以字，以字向下，謂以寂故稽首也。若用此已字，已字向上，謂導眾已也。

> Second, under "The upper phrase," concluding the explanation. The upper phrase is "having long accumulated pure karma"; the lower phrase is "guiding the assembly with quiescence."

Furthermore, in the above benefit of form, the virtues of the mind were additionally brought forth to reveal form; thus we know that the benefit of voice also relies on the mind. Therefore, it explains form with form and explains mind with mind. Voice comes from the mouth, fully possessing the three wheels; thus we know that being able to guide the assembly must focus exclusively on the mind. Therefore, two meanings are used to explain the two characters. If using this character "with" (以), the character "with" looks downward, meaning "bowing the head because of quiescence." If using this character "already" (已), the character "already" looks upward, meaning "having already guided the assembly."
