贊曰:陳詞有五,初除正理、二顯讚揚、三明已告、四彰罪滅、五述發願。陳理復三:初總非、次顯正、後結正。此初文也。空理義云:二人犯罪,由懷有相,今請悔除,還教起有,以有加有,故名增罪。當直除滅彼心憂悔,應說無相罪性本空為彼除之,勿以有罪亂其心也。擾者亂也。應理義云:二人犯罪,罪為業道,當須證理體達虛幻方拔罪根。但依作法用事而滅,口是心非,滅而不滅,罪業更生,名為重增。當說真理令彼證之,當說俗幻令其了達,名直除滅。拔罪種子,勿以事相擾亂其心而現罪滅。

The Commentary says: Setting forth the words has five parts: first, eliminating [error] with correct principle; second, manifesting praise; third, explaining what had already been told; fourth, revealing the destruction of the offenses; and fifth, recounting the making of the vow. Setting forth the principle further has three parts: first, a general refutation; next, revealing what is correct; and later, concluding with what is correct. This is the first passage. The explanation according to the principle of emptiness states: These two persons committed offenses because they cherished [attachment to] characteristics. Now they requested to repent and eliminate them, but [Upāli] in turn taught them to give rise to [the conception of] existence. Adding existence onto existence is therefore called "increasing offenses." One should directly eliminate the worry and remorse in their minds; one should explain the signless, that the nature of offenses is originally empty, so as to eliminate them for them, and not disturb their minds with existent offenses. "Perturbing" (rao) means disturbing (luan). The explanation according to the principle of conformity to reason (Yogācāra) states: These two persons committed offenses, and offenses are karmic paths. One must realize the principle and thoroughly comprehend them as illusory before the roots of the offenses can be uprooted. If one merely relies on ritual performance to eliminate them using phenomenal forms, while the mouth affirms but the mind denies, then though eliminated, they are not eliminated; the karmic offenses will arise again, which is called "doubly increasing" them. One should speak of the true principle to make them realize it, and speak of conventional illusions to make them understand them; this is called "directly eliminating." By uprooting the seeds of the offenses, one does not disturb their minds with phenomenal forms while merely appearing to eliminate the offenses.
