「如是已說至故名無記」者，此下釋後兩句，三性分別十八界。就中，一明眼等八界、二明餘十界。此即明眼等八界。有善增上可讚置白品中，有惡增上可毀置黑品中，故名有記。若非可讚、毀，非二品收，體不分明，故名無記。言三性者，一善、二不善、三無記。善略有三：一生得；二加行，謂聞、思、修；三無漏，謂學、無學、勝義。就無漏中，前二有為無漏，後一無為無漏。善總有七：一生得、二聞、三思、四修、五學、六無學、七勝義。不善唯一。無記有二：一有覆、二無覆。就無覆中有六：一異熟、二威儀、三工巧、四通果、五自性、六勝義，前五有為無記，後一無為無記，并前有覆總有七種。於無覆中，此論下文但說勝義；若依《正理》，總說二種：有為中立自性無記，無為中立勝義無記。今言六種，為辨差別。異熟等四所不攝者，皆名自性。為辨差別，於有為中開為五種，善有七，不善有一，無記有七，總有十五，以此十五種分別十八界。言分別者，十八界中五根、香、味、觸，此八唯無記。異熟者，通八種，謂異熟五根、香、味、觸。威儀、工巧、通果者，謂香、味、觸。自性者，謂長養五根、香、味、觸，及外香、味、觸。於七無記中，不通有覆、勝義。

> On the passage that begins, "As has been stated… hence it is called neutral (avyākṛta)": below, this explains the last two lines, distinguishing the eighteen realms according to the three natures (tri-svabhāva). Within this, first it clarifies the eight realms of the eye, etc., and second it clarifies the remaining ten realms. This section clarifies the eight realms of the eye, etc. Because the wholesome is predominant and praiseworthy, it is placed in the white category; because the unwholesome is predominant and blameworthy, it is placed in the black category; hence they are called "determinate" (vyākṛta). What is neither praiseworthy nor blameworthy is not subsumed in either category and its entity is indistinct; hence it is called "neutral" (avyākṛta). Regarding the three natures: first, the wholesome (kuśala); second, the unwholesome (akuśala); third, the neutral (avyākṛta). The wholesome briefly has three kinds: first, innate (upapattipratilambhika); second, applied (prayogika), that is, \[derived from\] hearing (śrutamayī), reflection (cintāmayī), and cultivation (bhāvanāmayī); third, uncontaminated (anāsrava), that is, the learner (śaikṣa), the adept (aśaikṣa), and the ultimate (paramārtha). Within the uncontaminated, the first two are conditioned uncontaminated (saṃskṛtānāsrava), and the last one is unconditioned uncontaminated (asaṃskṛtānāsrava). In all there are seven wholesome kinds: 1. innate, 2. hearing, 3. reflection, 4. cultivation, 5. learner, 6. adept, and 7. ultimate. The unwholesome is only one. The neutral has two kinds: first, obscured (nivṛta); second, unobscured (anivṛta). Within the unobscured there are six: 1. maturation (vipāka), 2. deportment (īryāpatha), 3. craft (śilpasthāna), 4. fruition of supernatural power (abhijñā-phala), 5. self-nature (svabhāva), and 6. ultimate (paramārtha). The first five are conditioned neutrals, and the last one is an unconditioned neutral; together with the obscured mentioned before, there are seven kinds in total. Among the unobscured, the lower text of this treatise mentions only the ultimate; if based on the Nyāyānusāra, it generally explains two kinds: establishing the self-nature neutral within the conditioned, and establishing the ultimate neutral within the unconditioned. Here, six kinds are stated in order to differentiate them. Whatever is not subsumed under the four—maturation and so forth—is all called self-nature. In order to distinguish, within the conditioned it is expanded into five kinds. The wholesome has seven, the unwholesome has one, and the neutral has seven, making fifteen in total; with these fifteen kinds, the eighteen realms are differentiated. As for the differentiation: among the eighteen realms, the five faculties, odor, taste, and tangibles—these eight are exclusively neutral. Those of maturation comprise all eight kinds: the five faculties, odor, taste, and tangibles of maturation. Those of deportment, craft, and fruition of supernatural power comprise odor, taste, and tangibles. Those of self-nature comprise the nurtured (aupacayika) five faculties, odor, taste, and tangibles, as well as external odor, taste, and tangibles. Among the seven neutrals, they do not include the obscured or the ultimate.
