Further, below "First, fear of false speech...": re-explaining the previous four. "Fearing false speech": oneself not having awakened, answering another by claiming to understand would constitute false speech; if one does not claim to understand, others will know that I lack wisdom. Second, "not having attained fearlessness regarding one's own realization, and so forth": they think, "I have not attained fearlessness regarding what is realized; if others interrogate me, if I say it exists or give a divergent declaration, it will constitute false speech; if I repudiate what truly exists or accept that it does not exist, it will constitute wrong view. My Pure Heaven does not permit the declaration of all hidden secrets"; therefore, one does not clearly state what is realized. Third, though awakened, not yet determined, fearing wrong view and false speech; one should understand this accordingly. The above three kinds resort to other matters to equivocate. Fourth, through ignorance, answering in compliance with words, asking the questioner back, "What is your desire?"—equivocating in compliance with words. These are all states of distraction, not relying on a mind in meditative concentration.
