問:若言破色是麁故不說者,今破受陰,望於想行亦即是麁,何故得說上歷聖位耶?答:雖望餘陰亦即是麁,然受等四陰同是心法,故利根人若破受陰,三蘊隨破,不同破色鈍根之者未能破想,觀力弱故,故在區宇。又解:此中不分利、鈍二別,但都明此位得受盡者,即能已具歷位昇進之分。如人取仕,既得及第,即能具有官位之分。然待為政,功德勝劣方序用耳。

Question: If breaking form is coarse and therefore not mentioned, now when breaking the aggregate of feeling, viewed in relation to perception and volitional formations it is also coarse; why then can it be said that one ascends through the holy stages? Answer: Although relative to the other aggregates it is also coarse, yet the four aggregates of feeling and the rest are all mental dharmas. Therefore, if a person of sharp faculties breaks the aggregate of feeling, the three aggregates are broken in succession; unlike one of dull faculties breaking form who is not yet able to break perception because their contemplation power is weak, and thus remains in the regional domain. Another explanation: Here no distinction between sharp and dull is made; it simply clarifies that in this position, one who exhausts feeling is already endowed with the capacity to ascend through the stages. Like a person seeking official rank: once having passed the examinations, they already possess the qualification for official posts; yet only when awaiting governance and based on the quality of their merits are they appointed in sequence.
