4.3

能敬相，以六門分別：一諸教不同、二釋名差別、三出體性、四明敬意、五敬禮歸依二種差別、六諸門辨。

The characteristics of paying homage are distinguished through six gates: first, differences among the teachings; second, explanation of the various names; third, identifying the essential nature; fourth, clarifying the intention of paying homage; fifth, the distinction between the two kinds: paying homage and taking refuge; sixth, analysis through various gates.
