次明止等行義差別。如《毘婆娑》說，數有二事：一數出入息、二能捨惡覺。隨亦有二：一隨出入息、二能離惡覺。止亦有二：一能住心在於鼻端眉間足指、二不捨三昧。觀亦有二：一觀出入息損益等事，如上所辨；二能善取心心數相。轉亦有二：一能知五陰、二能入聖道。淨亦有二：一能斷結、二能於諦知見清淨。行別如是（此二門竟）。

Being able to abandon evil thoughts. Following also has two: 1. Following the inhalations and exhalations; 2. Being able to be free from evil thoughts. Cessation also has two: 1. Being able to settle the mind at the tip of the nose, between the eyebrows, or on the toes; 2. Not abandoning samādhi. Contemplation also has two: 1. Contemplating the harm, benefit, and other aspects of inhalation and exhalation, as explained above; 2. Being able to skillfully grasp the characteristics of the mind and caittas. Turning also has two: 1. Being able to know the five aggregates; 2. Being able to enter the noble path. Purification also has two: 1. Being able to sever the fetters; 2. Being able to have pure knowledge and vision regarding the truths. The differences in practice are as such (this completes the second section).
