正說長行。中五：一指示明師令事、二分別四病令除、三辨事師之心、四明除病之行、五顯發心深廣。如次答前五問，然復有少相濫故，且顯經文。今初、答第一問也。文三：一令識、二令事、三顯益。今初。

The formal explanation in prose. In it are five parts: 1. pointing out an enlightened teacher to be served; 2. distinguishing the four defects to be eliminated; 3. examining the attitude of serving the teacher; 4. explaining the practice that eliminates defects; 5. revealing the depth and breadth of the aspiration. These answer the five preceding questions in sequence, yet since there is some overlap, the sūtra text will be clarified first. Now, the first: answering the first question. This text has three parts: 1. having one recognize [the teacher]; 2. having one serve [the teacher]; 3. revealing the benefit. Now, the first.
