初自性可解，第二十力分別中，遠公云：一、約時辨力，於十力中宿住知過去，天眼知未來餘七知三世，其漏盡通應當分別，若就自身現證漏盡得知現在，道理所知無為不墮三世，論主擇滅就人，故通三世。二、約法辨力，於十力中初力最廣總知自體，第七亦爾知不淨等是知自求，知無我法名知共相，其漏盡力見有除暗能知自相，證空漏盡能知共相，餘七知自道理，十力亦知無為，論欲就品類辨十力故不證無為。三、約人辨力，十力皆緣一切有情，於各別有情知利益方便。

First, the intrinsic nature can be understood. In the second distinguishing of the ten powers, Master Yuan says: "1. Distinguishing the powers in terms of time: among the ten powers, past lives knows the past, the divine eye knows the future, and the remaining seven know the three periods of time. The supernormal power of the destruction of the taints should be distinguished: if in terms of one's own body presently realizing the destruction of the taints, it is known as the present; in principle, the unconditioned that is known does not fall into the three periods of time; the author of the treatise applies analytical cessation to persons, hence it extends to the three periods of time. 2. Distinguishing the powers in terms of phenomena: among the ten powers, the first power is the broadest and generally knows intrinsic nature; the seventh is also like this: knowing impurity and so forth is knowing self-seeking; knowing the phenomenon of non-self is called knowing common characteristics. The power of the destruction of the taints, seeing existence and dispelling darkness, can know specific characteristics; realizing emptiness and the destruction of the taints, it can know common characteristics. The remaining seven know their own intrinsic principles. The ten powers also know the unconditioned; because the treatise intends to distinguish the ten powers according to category, it does not certify the unconditioned. 3. Distinguishing the powers in terms of persons: the ten powers all take all sentient beings as objects, and know the means of benefit for distinct sentient beings."
