三、示獲俗利。文中先約世利釋,次復次去作法門釋。「迹同凡俗」等者,肇云「法身大士,瓦礫盡寶玉。」若然,則人不貴其惠,故理同求利,豈喜悅之有?經云「偕偶」,《爾雅》云「諧,協和也。偶,會合也。」

Third, manifesting acquiring worldly profit. In the text, he first explains in terms of worldly profit; next, from 'furthermore' onward, he explains in terms of the Dharma-gate. Regarding 'His traces identical to ordinary worldlings,' and so on: [Seng]zhao says: 'To a Great Being of the dharmakāya, rubble and tiles are all precious jewels.' If so, then people would not value his generosity; hence, in principle he is identical in seeking profit—how could there be joy and pleasure? The sūtra says 'xieou' (joining as partners); the Erya says: 'Xie means harmony; ou means meeting and uniting.'
