總執分別者,泰云:如以車步象馬成軍,以眾樹成林,以四塵成飲食等,皆是總法,以執四塵有定性故,亦執四塵所成假飲食等有定假法,緣此總法執起,故名總執分別。若計五蘊有實體,以此有情五蘊緣成假人我及有情等名為總執分別,乃至羅漢有此分別是心煩惱方便。

Regarding the conceptualisation of grasping as a whole, Tai says: Just as chariots, infantry, elephants, and cavalry make up an army, numerous trees make up a forest, and four sense-objects make up food and drink, these are all composite dharmas. Because one grasps the four sense-objects as having fixed natures, one also grasps the nominally designated food and drink made up of the four sense-objects as having fixed nominal dharmas. Arising from grasping with these composite dharmas as objects, it is called the conceptualisation of grasping as a whole. If one calculates that the five aggregates have real essence, and taking these five aggregates of sentient beings, nominally constructs an individual self, a sentient being, and so forth, this is called the conceptualisation of grasping as a whole; even arhats have this conceptualisation as an expedient of mental affliction.
