五、示圓音者，謂此說塵之音，然音具足智慧之藏，隨眾生機，有深淺之感。若於聲上了大小音韻是假立，空無所有故。然聲是實者，此乃小乘機性，即愚法教顯也；於聲上即知聲事無體，會事顯理者，此由大乘機性，即終教顯也；於聲上即知大小音聲空無所有，生心動念即乖法體，一味一相不可分別者，此乃大乘機性，即頓教顯也；於聲上了知聲是緣起法界，菩提涅槃主伴自在，一即一切、一切即一，如帝釋殿珠網重重無盡境界，此由一乘機性，即圓教顯也。此一音上，由機有大小，令此法門亦復不一。一切諸聲各各如是，乃為如來無礙圓音，法輪常轉爾。

> Fifth, demonstrating the complete sound: this refers to the sound that explains this dust mote. This sound is fully endowed with the store of wisdom, evoking deep or shallow responses according to the capacities of sentient beings. If in sound one comprehends that large and small sounds and tones are provisionally established because they are empty and non-existent, yet sound is real—this is the capacity of the Hīnayāna, through which the teaching of those ignorant of phenomena is manifested. If in sound one immediately knows that the phenomenon of sound has no essence, gathering phenomena to reveal principle—this is due to the capacity of the Mahāyāna, through which the final teaching is manifested. If in sound one immediately knows that large and small sounds are empty and non-existent, that giving rise to mind and stirring thoughts immediately violates the essence of phenomena, and that the single flavor and single mark cannot be conceptualized—this is the capacity of the Mahāyāna, through which the sudden teaching is manifested. If in sound one fully understands that sound is the pratītyasamutpāda-dharmadhātu, where bodhi and nirvāṇa, host and companion, are unconstrained, one is all and all is one, like the realm of Indra's palace jeweled net, infinitely layered—this is due to the capacity of the ekayāna, through which the complete teaching is manifested. In this single sound, because capacities are large and small, this Dharma gate is likewise not singular. All sounds are each like this; this is the Tathāgata's unobstructed complete sound, with the wheel of the Dharma constantly turning.
