For the three kinds of repentance above, the matters of offense are not light and the methods of repentance are intricate; in principle one must be thoroughly versed in them. Naturally, one who upholds the Vinaya may put them into practice as a standard; for others, broad searching will ultimately prove an empty reliance. If one genuinely wishes to cleanse offenses, one is a wise person; contemplating conditions and maintaining the Dharma, there will surely be no error. Even if set forth in order here, unless studied it cannot be known, and would only waste time and effort without completing the present task; hence it is omitted and not recorded. When one must handle matters as circumstances arise, the Great Commentary details them comprehensively.
