九宮不肯戀,獨自入方衢。此頌圓明者,揀異凡夫無明、二乘似明、菩薩分明,佛號圓明,表全為主全伴。謂彼聖智證真之後,功成不宰,迴入塵勞混同凡跡,處處圓明而不昧也。既無賓外之主,誰是辨別全主為賓之者?意顯獨立,故曰誰辨也。
"Unwilling to linger in the Nine Palaces, / One enters the crossroads alone."
This verse refers to perfect clarity: distinguishing it from the ignorance of ordinary beings, the seeming clarity of the two vehicles, and the partial clarity of bodhisattvas, the Buddha is termed "perfect clarity," representing the entire host becoming the entire companion. This means that after that noble wisdom realizes the truth, its achievement completed without claiming mastery, it turns back into the defilements of the dust, mingling with ordinary traces, perfectly clear everywhere without being obscured. Since there is no host outside the guest, who is the one to discern that the entire host has become the guest? The intent is to show independence, hence it is said: "who can distinguish?"
