Third, the three [modes of] attracting and gathering. Fourth, the four [modes of] compliance, which means serving them and complying with them. Fifth, by means of such service, obtaining five fruits based on the four loci: the locus lacking protective reception refers to those who are not old acquaintances, because there was no prior protective reception; the locus free from intrusion and vexation refers to relatives and friends; the locus worthy of offerings refers to those whom one respects; the locus of complying with similar shares refers to those who possess merit and wisdom, for because they are endowed with merit and wisdom, they are the refuge of many people, and once one has taken refuge, wishing to train in merit and wisdom, to be of the same share with them is called 'complying with similar shares'; 'obtaining five fruits' means that because of serving, complying with, and practicing generosity, etc., toward these four loci, one comprehensively obtains five fruits, rather than each separately bringing about [one].
