起信論疏 2.2

2.2

Among the five parts that re-elucidate relying on words, the fourth, explaining separately the two kinds of perfuming, has already been concluded above. Below this, the fifth clarifies the meaning of whether the two kinds of perfuming are exhaustible or inexhaustible: it intends to clarify that defiled perfuming arises in contradiction to principle and therefore has an end and exhaustion; the perfuming of pure dharmas arises in accordance with principle and corresponds with principle, and therefore has no exhaustion; the text is understandable.
