然未下，六、決通伏難。或難云：「既四相同時，何故覺者有其前後？」故此釋之。達心源下，以了四相同依心者，方得俱時而知也。如人夢中說夢，漸漸而知，或至覺來，方可併悟。斯乃得失在人，不應疑法。經云下，引證。始者下，轉釋所引。並可知。

> "Yet not yet..." is sixth: resolving and penetrating the latent objection. Someone might object: "Since the four marks are simultaneous, why do those who realize enlightenment have before and after?" Hence this explains it. From "penetrating the source of the mind..." onward, it means that only by clearly understanding that the four marks equally depend on the mind can one know them simultaneously. It is like a person in a dream speaking of the dream: gradually he comes to know it, or only upon awakening can he comprehend all at once. This success or failure lies with the person; one should not doubt the Dharma. "As a sūtra says..." adduces proof. From "'Beginning'..." onward, it further explains what was cited. All may be understood.
