Among the seven factors, the fifth, 'cultivation of antidotes,' is the third, 'cultivation of yoga,' among the four bases. The text is divided into four parts: first, a question with a general overview; next, a detailed explanation following [each part]; third, showing that cultivation of antidotes is cultivation of yoga; fourth, concluding that the broad teaching has neither surplus nor excess. In the detailed explanation, there are three parts: first, explaining the ten kinds of cultivation across the three stages; second, the passage from 'Moreover, the perception of impurity is briefly of two kinds' downward, which follows the preceding difficult explanations; third, the passage from 'Moreover, for one who cultivates various perceptions through correct expedient means, there are those capable of eradicating the various desires to be counteracted' downward, which explains the cultivation of antidotes that is greatly beneficial. The first text has two parts: first, listing the three stages, and then explaining the ten cultivations. In explaining the ten cultivations, the text has three parts: first, explaining the two perceptions of impurity and impermanence; second, the passage from 'Moreover, the four tasks of a renunciant' downward, explaining the four perceptions of impermanence, suffering, and so forth; third, the passage from 'Moreover, in secluded dwelling in solitude' downward, explaining the four perceptions of light and so forth.
