Two Aniyatas: In the indication, concealed and open being different makes two; not being certain of the actual offense makes them aniyata (undetermined). Above they summarize the precept divisions, and below they subsume deportment, so they constitute the third. The two lines below the text point to the extensive [exposition]. The 'commentarial texts' refers generally to the ancient commentaries, hence it says 'long listed'. The commentaries explain the expanded vinaya bhikṣu-prātimokṣa, distinguishing these two precepts and extensively listing doctrinal gates, hence it says 'in the Prātimokṣa'. Now this only clarifies the conditions and marks that constitute an offense; the remaining doctrinal chapters are all found in the Precept Commentary and the Doctrinal Manual, hence it says 'briefly state the general idea'.
