七覺支中，景師解：皆言等者，此平等義，盡無生皆平等開覺名為等覺，支是分義因義，此七能與盡無生智等覺為分名等覺支。法師云：即此七法平等開覺同時相助名支。基師解：皆有等字者，法師云：此等覺即謂如來七支能因成等覺故皆有等字，若爾後八支聖道亦爾，前五位內難此義妨故。有義：七覺在見道，八正在修道，見道無相，修道分別，分別故有相，無相故平等而覺，故言等覺。

> Among the seven limbs of awakening, Master Jing explains: all use "equal/right" (saṃ-), which has the meaning of equality; exhaustion and non-arising are both equally awakened to, hence called "equal awakening" (sambodhi); "limb" has the meaning of part and the meaning of cause; these seven can serve as limbs for the equal awakening of the knowledge of exhaustion and non-arising, hence called limbs of equal awakening. The Dharma Master says: these seven dharmas awaken equally and assist one another simultaneously, hence called limbs. Master Ji explains: regarding all having the character "deng" (equal/right): the Dharma Master says: this equal awakening refers to the Tathāgata, and the seven limbs can causally accomplish equal awakening, so they all have the character "deng"; if so, the subsequent eight limbs of the noble path should also be like this, but within the previous five positions this meaning is obstructed by objections. An alternative view says: the seven awakenings are in the path of seeing, and the eightfold right \[path\] is in the path of cultivation; the path of seeing is without marks, while the path of cultivation has conceptual discrimination; because there is conceptual discrimination, there are marks; because there are no marks, there is equal awakening; hence it is called equal awakening.
