止觀大乘亦如是。觀念念心無非法性實相，是名「等一大車」。於一一心即空、即假、即中，是名「各賜大車」。徹三諦之源，名為「高」。收十法界，名為「廣」。無量道品，名「眾寶莊校」。四勤遮惡持善，又願來持行，釘鑷牢固，名「周匝欄楯」。法義辭辯，宣暢開覺，名「四面懸鈴」。慈悲普覆，無有遺限，名「張設幰蓋」。道品所攝，十力、無畏、十八不共之法，不與他共，名「珍奇嚴飾」。四弘誓願，要心不退，名「寶繩交絡」。四攝攝物，物無不悅，名「垂諸華纓」。諸禪三昧，起六神通，名「重敷綩莚」。四門歸宗，休息諸行，名「安置丹枕」。四念處慧破除八倒之黑，名「駕以白牛」。四正勤增長二善，名「肥壯多力」。遮斷二惡，二惡盡淨，故言「膚色充潔」。四如意足，四辯自在，名「形體姝好」。五根盤固不可移動，名為「筋」。五力增長遮諸惡法，名為「力」。七覺簡擇，名為「行步」。八道安隱，名為「平正」。對治助道廣攝諸法，名「又多僕從而侍衛之」。破法愛無明入薩婆若海，發真速疾，名「其疾如風」。運載諸子，嬉戲快樂。此大乘觀，法門具度，與彼經合，故名「大乘觀」也。

> The Great Vehicle of calming and contemplation is also like this. Contemplating the mind in thought-moment after thought-moment as nothing other than the true reality of dharmatā is called 'an identical great carriage.' In each and every mind, it is namely empty, namely provisional, and namely middle: this is called 'to each he gave a great carriage.' Penetrating the source of the three truths is called 'high.' Encompassing the ten dharmadhātus is called 'broad.' The immeasurable aids to the Way are called 'adorned with many jewels.' The four right efforts ward off evil and maintain good, and vows sustain practice so that the pins and clamps are firm: this is called 'surrounded by railings on all sides.' The eloquence of dharma, meaning, phrasing, and readiness, expressing and awakening, is called 'bells suspended on its four faces.' Compassion universally covering without omission or limit is called 'above it was spread a canopy.' Embraced by the aids to the Way, the ten powers, fearlessnesses, and eighteen unshared dharmas not shared with others are called 'adorned with rare treasures.' The four great vows, keeping the resolute mind from regressing, are called 'jewel ropes intertwined.' Gathering beings through the four means of embrace so that none are displeased is called 'hanging with floral tassels.' The various dhyānas and samādhis giving rise to the six supernormal powers are called 'thick mats spread in layers.' The four gates returning to the source and putting to rest all practices is called 'vermilion pillows placed.' The wisdom of the four smṛtyupasthānas destroying the darkness of the eight inversions is called 'yoked to a white ox.' The four right exertions increasing the two types of good are called 'plump, sturdy, and possessing great strength.' Severing the two types of evil so that both evils are completely purified is why it says 'with a pure and clean hide.' The four bases of supernormal power and unimpeded mastery in the four eloquence types are called 'handsome physique.' The five faculties firmly rooted and immovable are called 'sinews.' The five powers increasing and warding off all unwholesome dharmas are called 'strength.' The seven factors of enlightenment selecting and discerning are called 'walking.' The eightfold path secure and peaceful is called 'evenly and smoothly.' Antidotes and assisting paths broadly gathering all dharmas are called 'many servants and attendants guarding it.' Breaking through Dharma-attachment and avidyā to enter the ocean of sarvajñā, swiftly realizing the true, is called 'swift as the wind.' Carrying the children along to sport and rejoice: this contemplation of the Great Vehicle possesses all the Dharma gates to perfection, harmonizing with that sūtra; therefore it is called 'the contemplation of the Great Vehicle.'
