基云：有求者，即求三有身，不同小乘也。法爾求者，謂劫末眾生法爾求生上界。大義曰：即法爾一切眾生求後有身；二、祈願求，謂祈願生彼等；三、愚癡求者，謂外道等計上界為涅槃故求也。大義曰：愚癡故求生上界也；四、厭患求，厭患下界故也。大義曰：厭患此身求後身也。思擇求者，謂有智慧求生於上界也，不計為涅槃。大義曰：思擇可生處而求生也。

> Ji says: 'Quest for existence' means seeking a body within the three realms of existence, which differs from the Hīnayāna. 'Quest by intrinsic nature' means that sentient beings at the end of a kalpa naturally seek birth in higher realms. The Great Master says: This means all sentient beings naturally seek a future body of existence. Second, 'quest through aspiration' means making aspirations to be born there, and so on. Third, 'quest through folly' refers to non-Buddhists and others conceiving the higher realms to be nirvāṇa and therefore seeking them. The Great Master says: Seeking birth in higher realms on account of folly. Fourth, 'quest through disgust' means being disgusted with the lower realms. The Great Master says: Disgusted with this body, one seeks a future body. 'Quest through deliberation' refers to those endowed with wisdom seeking birth in higher realms without conceiving them to be nirvāṇa. The Great Master says: Deliberating upon suitable places of rebirth and seeking birth there.
