二、略釋菩薩義，二：初、名義指上。二、約教正釋，二：初、約教總明，二：初、正明行相。荊溪云：四種菩薩皆云跋致者，初舉發心，次入跋致，此則具舉初後也。又被訶者皆不退位，從前不退入後不退，三種不退相望說之。以四菩薩中先訶勤不退之行，是故預標不退之言。

> Second, briefly explaining the meaning of "bodhisattva," in two \[parts\]: first, the name and meaning point to the above. Second, correctly explaining with respect to the teachings, in two: first, comprehensively explaining with respect to the teachings, in two: first, directly clarifying the active characteristics. Jingxi says: That the four kinds of bodhisattvas are all called "\[avaivartika-\]bhavati" first raises the generating of the \[bodhi-\]mind and next entering the \[avaivartika-\]bhavati; this completely raises the beginning and the end. Furthermore, those who are reproached are all in the stage of non-retrogression; entering a later non-retrogression from a prior non-retrogression, this is spoken in mutual comparison among the three kinds of non-retrogression. Because among the four bodhisattvas \[Vimalakīrti\] first reproaches the practice of diligent non-retrogression, he therefore designates in advance the word "non-retrogression."
