答:准彼論云,依煖等位,即通四善根皆有此四。持即聞惠、任思惠、鏡即修惠、明謂所觀,無能、所取。或鏡即定,明者是惠。煖、頂、忍三各因此四方得修滿,入世第一。或無持、任,以上品忍唯一剎那即入世第一法,唯定時促,故無持、任。但依此位有持、任等,非必四位各有四種。又解:四位各有此四,持、任二行非是聞、思,以在定中依憑聖教,故以為持,《論》云「如所多聞,安立止觀所緣境故。」與定相應如理作意以為任,無倒思惟任持心故,即所依定名為鏡,云此三摩地猶帶相故。能觀之智名為明,云謂能、所取無所得智。

Answer: In accordance with that treatise, it says they rely on the stages of heat (ūṣmagata) and so forth, which means that all four roots of goodness possess these four. "Holding" is the wisdom of hearing (śrutamayī prajñā); "sustaining" is the wisdom of thinking (cintāmayī prajñā); "mirror" is the wisdom of cultivation (bhāvanāmayī prajñā); and "illumination" refers to what is observed, being free from grasper and grasped. Alternatively, "mirror" is concentration (samādhi), and "illumination" is wisdom (prajñā). Heat, summit (mūrdhan), and patience (kṣānti) each bring cultivation to fulfillment by relying on these four, thereby entering the worldly supreme dharmas (laukikāgradharma). Alternatively, there is no holding or sustaining, because with superior patience, in only a single moment one enters the worldly supreme dharmas; being solely in concentration and of brief duration, holding and sustaining are absent. They merely rely on these stages having holding and sustaining, etc., not that the four stages necessarily each possess all four kinds. Another explanation: The four stages each possess these four. The two practices of holding and sustaining are not [ordinary] hearing and thinking; because in concentration one relies upon the sacred teaching, this is taken as holding—the Treatise says: "Because in accordance with what has been widely heard, one establishes the objective sphere of tranquility and insight (śamatha-vipaśyanā)." Proper attention (yoniśomanaskāra) associated with concentration is taken as sustaining, because non-inverted reflection sustains the mind. The concentration that serves as the basis is named "mirror," saying that this samādhi still carries images (sa-nimitta). The wisdom capable of observing is named "illumination," saying it is the wisdom with nothing to be attained regarding grasper and grasped.
