三類智兼修，現觀邊俗智者，於苦、集、滅三類智時，能兼修未來現觀邊俗智，此世俗智於一一諦現觀後邊方能兼修，故立現觀邊世俗智號也。現觀邊者，即三類智也，謂世俗智於無始來曾知苦、斷集、證滅，今三類智亦知苦、斷集、證滅，與世俗智同為一事，有事現觀故，三類智邊能修世俗智。問：「於道類智時何不修俗智？」答：「俗智於道中曾無事現觀，故道類智不修世俗。又必無於道遍事現觀故，謂於三諦可遍知苦、可遍斷集、可遍證滅，當諦事周，故修俗智必無於道。可能遍修，種性多故。故道類智不修俗智。」問：「何故於三諦有遍聲非道諦耶？」答：「以其能知一切苦、斷一切集、證一切滅，而無能修一切道諦。佛亦於道得修習修，俱不盡故，故無遍聲。」

"The three subsequent knowledges cultivate in addition the conventional knowledge bordering direct realization": at the time of the three subsequent knowledges of suffering, origin, and cessation, one can cultivate in addition the future conventional knowledge bordering direct realization. This conventional knowledge can be cultivated in addition only at the end of the direct realization of each truth; hence it is designated 'conventional knowledge bordering direct realization'. 'Bordering direct realization' refers to the three subsequent knowledges: conventional knowledge from beginningless time has previously known suffering, abandoned origin, and realized cessation; now the three subsequent knowledges also know suffering, abandon origin, and realize cessation, performing the same task as conventional knowledge. Because there is direct realization of the task, on the margin of the three subsequent knowledges one is able to cultivate conventional knowledge. Question: "Why does one not cultivate conventional knowledge at the time of the subsequent knowledge of the path?" Answer: "Conventional knowledge has never had a direct realization of the task with respect to the path; therefore the subsequent knowledge of the path does not cultivate conventional knowledge. Furthermore, there is definitely no comprehensive direct realization of the task with respect to the path: with respect to the [first] three truths, suffering can be comprehensively known, origin can be comprehensively abandoned, and cessation can be comprehensively realized; the task of that truth is completed, so one cultivates conventional knowledge. But with respect to the path, it is definitely impossible to cultivate it comprehensively, because there are many spiritual families. Therefore, the subsequent knowledge of the path does not cultivate conventional knowledge." Question: "Why is the word 'comprehensive' used for the three truths, but not for the truth of the path?" Answer: "Because one can know all suffering, abandon all origin, and realize all cessation, yet no one can cultivate all of the truth of the path. Even the Buddha has not exhausted both cultivation by acquisition and cultivation by practice with respect to the path; therefore the word 'comprehensive' is not used."
