五因依逆次說五因者：一、四善根創能通達觀四諦故；二、所依定即四善根所依止定；三、即此定前四念住等五停心觀等能入境界；四、此等觀前修四聖種六隨念等名能攝受加行資糧；五、即於此前受持三藏親近和上及阿闍梨能受教誡，加行思惟名為最初攝受方便，故說五觀依逆次說。

The five causes are stated in reverse order: 1. the four roots of goodness, which first enable penetration and contemplation of the four truths; 2. the concentration which serves as support, namely the concentration upon which the four roots of goodness rely; 3. prior to this concentration, the four stations of mindfulness, the fivefold mental stilling, and the like, which are the objects one is able to enter; 4. prior to these contemplations, cultivating the four noble lineages, the six recollections, and the like, which are called the preparations of preliminary practice that are able to gather [good roots]; 5. prior to this, upholding the Tripiṭaka, drawing near to preceptors (upādhyāyas) and ācāryas, being able to receive instruction, and engaging in preparatory reflection, which are called the initial expedients of gathering. Therefore, the five contemplations are stated in reverse order.
