8.20

問：秖應云以圓折伏，而云四者何耶？答：訶凡用藏、訶小用衍、斥大用圓，或展轉訶，故須用四。「今歎」等者，即指文殊稱歎。「淨名令修」等者，即指調伏慰喻之文及下四品也。「入不思議」，指〈不思議品〉。「得見淨剎」即，指〈香積〉、〈阿閦佛品〉。言「及下五品」者，至下文中各隨其品不出折攝。

Question: One should simply say breaking down through the perfect [teaching]; why does it say four? Answer: Reproaching ordinary persons uses the Storehouse [Teaching], reproaching the small uses the Great [Vehicle], reproaching the great uses the Perfect [Teaching], or they are reproached successively; therefore one must use the four. As for "now praising," and so forth, this refers to Mañjuśrī's praise. As for "Jingming causing them to practice," and so forth, this refers to the text of subduing and consoling, as well as the four chapters below. "Entering the inconceivable" refers to the "Inconceivable Chapter." "Obtaining sight of the pure lands" refers to the "Gandhakūṭa" and "Akṣobhya Buddha Chapters." As for the statement "and the five chapters below," when arriving at the text below, each corresponds to its respective chapter, not going beyond breaking down and gathering in.
