11.52

Regarding "The second says...", second: explaining through the difference in meaning between general and specific. Regarding "With respect to the fundamental...", this speaks vertically and strictly with respect to the true essence. Enlightenment is the fundamental; because relying on the fundamental, the secondary branches arise. Regarding "Now with respect to...", the comprehensive status refers to speaking horizontally and comprehensively with respect to both true and false. Just as wind moving water forms waves, both wind and water are present within the waves.
