四門者,一、事施設者,謂三藏攝事施設建立,事謂事義,謂經律論義差別故。又是諸所論義所依之體事故,立事名;二、想差別施設者,謂能詮名,由名句文皆從想生故名稱想,又西域呼名多呼為想,又名等無體隨聲假立,隨其想解號為能詮,故說名等稱之為想;三、聖教義想者,謂諸聖教所詮之義能攝聖教;四、由佛教所應知處相者,謂從二數佛教所詮事增益,乃至十種佛教所詮事,名佛教所應知處想。第三以理攝教,第四以教顯理。

Regarding the four gates: First, positing of topics: the positing and establishment of topics encompassed by the Tripiṭaka; 'topics' refers to the meanings of the topics, meaning the differences of meaning in the sūtras, vinaya, and śāstras. Furthermore, because it is the fundamental topic on which the meanings discussed in all treatises rely, it is given the name 'topic'. Second, positing distinctions of conceptual designations: this refers to the expressive names; because names, phrases, and syllables all arise from conception, names are called conceptual designations. Furthermore, in the Western Regions, names are mostly called conceptual designations. Moreover, names and so forth lack intrinsic substance and are conventionally established following sound; according to conceptual understanding they are designated as expressive, hence names and so forth are called conceptual designations. Third, conceptual designations of the meanings of the holy teachings: the meanings expressed by the holy teachings can encompass the holy teachings. Fourth, the characteristics of what should be known by means of the Buddha's teaching: from two items expressed by the Buddha's teaching increasing up to ten items expressed by the Buddha's teaching, these are called conceptual designations of what should be known by means of the Buddha's teaching. The third encompasses the teachings by means of the principle, and the fourth reveals the principle by means of the teachings.
