二、顯真，二：初、約生身訶。「趣佛慧」者，即生身得忍，分證三智也。「九大禪」，即別教禪。「及二乘定」，即藏通禪。達邊即中，隨機所好，故云「隨意即入」。「在欲而行禪」者，荊溪云：此亦約果地真滅定作此說，意令入於不思議假，故云在欲，不以世人在欲而謂有禪。今意云，魔本以欲而亂世人，既以魔界而為佛事，故魔見之其心憒亂不端，下方寄因人不現身心之觀也。

> Second, revealing the true, which has two parts: first, reproaching in terms of the birth-body. Regarding "tending toward Buddha-wisdom": this means obtaining forbearance in the birth-body and partially realizing the three knowledges. The "nine great dhyānas" are the dhyānas of the distinct teaching. "And the concentrations of the two vehicles" are the dhyānas of the Tripiṭaka and common teachings. Reaching the extremes is precisely the middle; according with what suits capacities, hence it says "entering at will." Regarding "practicing dhyāna while in desire": Jingxi says that this is also spoken in terms of the true concentration of cessation of the stage of effect; the intent is to cause entry into the inconceivable provisional; hence it is called "in desire," not that worldly people in desire are considered to have dhyāna. The present meaning says: Māra originally confuses worldly people with desire; since \[the bodhisattva\] turns Māra's realm into Buddha-work, when Māra sees it, his mind is bewildered and unsettled; below, it borrows the contemplation of causal persons not manifesting body and mind.
