其性好樂廣大財位已下,第四明性廣大。基云:謂菩薩心廣大故,心好受用,非少財位,其性好樂廣大財位,以事業廣大而非狹小故,又前已明施物雖少而能均布,慧施廣大而非狹小,今明性好樂大財位施能均布,事業廣大而非狹小,即與前文小物多物好樂為異也。

From 'their nature delights in extensive wealth and position' onward is the fourth, explaining the broadness of nature. Ji says: Because the bodhisattva's mind is broad, his mind delights in enjoying not a small amount of wealth and position; his nature delights in extensive wealth and position because his activities are extensive and not narrow. Furthermore, it was previously explained that although the items given are few, he is able to distribute them equally, so the giving of wisdom is extensive and not narrow; now it explains that his nature delights in giving extensive wealth and position and being able to distribute them equally, and his activities are broad and not narrow; thus it differs from the earlier text's delight in small or many items.
