說無垢稱經疏 6.678

6.678

贊曰：五月蓋傳通。有四：一請傳通、二為授記、三出家獲果、四滅後行化。初中有三：一聞法獲益、二答施衣嚴、三正陳請。此初也。無生法忍，證在初地，順在地前決擇忍位。今聞法故，獲得地前順法之忍。又依《仁王經》五忍配位：一伏忍，在地前；二信忍，初二三地；三順忍，四五六地；四無生忍，七八九地；五寂滅忍，十地佛地。今順忍創登四地，故舊經云「得柔順忍」。二解任取。

The Commentary says: Fifth, Candrachattra's transmission and propagation. It has four parts: 1. requesting transmission and propagation; 2. conferring a prophecy; 3. renouncing the household and attaining the fruit; 4. carrying out transformation after the extinction. The first has three parts: 1. hearing the Dharma and gaining benefit; 2. rewarding by offering robes and adornments; 3. formally presenting the request. This is the first. The forbearance of the non-arising of phenomena is realized at the first ground; conforming is at the stage of forbearance of decisive discernment prior to the grounds. Now, by hearing the Dharma, he attained the forbearance of conforming to the Dharma prior to the grounds. Furthermore, according to the five forbearances correlated with the stages in the Benevolent Kings Sūtra: 1. subduing forbearance, prior to the grounds; 2. faithful forbearance, the first, second, and third grounds; 3. conforming forbearance, the fourth, fifth, and sixth grounds; 4. non-arising forbearance, the seventh, eighth, and ninth grounds; 5. quiescent cessation forbearance, the tenth ground and the Buddha ground. Here, conforming forbearance is first stepping onto the fourth ground, hence the older sūtra says: "attained pliant and conforming forbearance." Either interpretation may be accepted.
