二十三明三祇中所修施等三名差別。初僧祇中，修行施等煩惱猶行。未能制伏然為彼伏者，然為煩惱伏弊施等。謂於勝解行地等者，出其位地。煖中，勝解轉時，是名波羅蜜多者，地前所修未成上品，但是煖品中品，但名波羅蜜多。復於無量時乃至謂從初地已上者，出其位地。是名近波羅蜜多者，去菩提近故名也。復於乃至八地已上者，出其位地，是名大波羅蜜多者，八地已上無功用修，一一行中起無量行，故得大名。

23. Explaining the difference in the three names of giving and so forth cultivated across the three asaṃkhyeya kalpas. During the first asaṃkhyeya kalpa, when practicing giving and so forth, defilements still operate. Being unable to subdue them, one is rather subdued by them, which means that giving and so forth are subdued and degraded by defilements. Regarding 'in the stage of practice of resolute intention and so forth': pointing out its rank and stage. 'When resolute intention shifts in warmth, this is called pāramitā': that which is cultivated before the stages has not yet attained the superior grade, but is only the grade of warmth or medium grade, and is simply called pāramitā. 'Again, across immeasurable time… up to… from the first stage and above': pointing out its rank and stage. 'This is called proximate pāramitā': so called because of proximity to bodhi. 'Again, across… up to… the eighth stage and above': pointing out its rank and stage. 'This is called great pāramitā': from the eighth stage and above, practice is effortless, and within each individual practice limitless practices arise, hence it attains the designation 'great'.
