9.2

二、例上分章。荊溪云：雖不次第者，第一當前第三、第二當第五、第三當第一、第四當第二、第五當第四。所以有此兩次第者，各有其旨。前次第者，教門必須大悲居首，依悲起誓其根須利及以勇進。今次第者，內觀任運即是根利，是故居初，利根須進重起大悲弘誓勇猛。

Second, dividing the sections by analogy with the above. Jingxi says: "Although not sequential": the first corresponds to the previous third, the second to the fifth, the third to the first, the fourth to the second, and the fifth to the fourth. The reason there are these two sequences is that each has its own purpose. As for the previous sequence, the teaching method must place great compassion first; relying on compassion to give rise to vows, one's faculties must be sharp and also vigorous. As for the present sequence, inner contemplation functioning spontaneously is precisely sharp faculties; therefore it is placed first. Those of sharp faculties must advance, repeatedly giving rise to great compassion and broad vows with vigor.
