6.42

以真下，二、別釋相，二：初、約二門各攝解，二：初、正釋。通相者，以真如門不分染淨，雖攝染淨，皆同性故。所言相者，謂義相也。以此門中顯示染淨融通之義，故云通相。以染淨等法入此門中，□為一昧，真如之理更無差別，故云無別染淨等。故得下，結，可知。別顯等者，隨流反流各不相是，功德塵勞歷然有異，眾生諸佛凡聖宛然，淨土穢土優劣不等。無所不該者，謂一切雖多，不出染淨，既攝染淨，是故論云攝一切也。

From "Because tathatā..." onward is the second part, specifically explaining the aspects, which has two: first, explaining in terms of the two gates each subsuming, which has two: first, the main explanation. "Shared aspect" means that because the tathatā gate does not differentiate defilement and purity, although it subsumes defilement and purity, they are all of the same nature. What is called "aspect" means an aspect of meaning. Because this gate displays the meaning of defilement and purity harmoniously merging, it is called the shared aspect. Because when dharmas such as defilement and purity enter this gate, [...] are of one flavor and the principle of tathatā has no further difference, it says "without distinct defilement and purity, etc." "Therefore it can..." onward concludes, which is clear. "Distinctly displaying..." onward means that flowing along with [saṃsāra] and reversing the flow [toward nirvāṇa] are each mutually incompatible; meritorious qualities and afflictive toils are distinctly different; sentient beings and the Buddhas, ordinary beings and sages, are plainly evident; and pure lands and defiled lands are unequal in superiority and inferiority. "Nothing is not encompassed" means that although all [dharmas] are manifold, they do not go beyond defilement and purity; since it subsumes defilement and purity, the treatise therefore says it "subsumes all."
