止觀輔行傳弘決 1.72

次「分別者」，始從真俗終至橫竪，略以十門分別十章。初云「十章功德」等者，明分別意。若無十門分別十章，恐人不知十章豐富。「如囊中寶」等者，譬分別意也。十意義富如囊有寶，諸門分別如探示人。《大論》六十五云「若不取相、以無著心說有九種，令他讀持能正憶念。一者照了，不知令知故。二者開出，如開寶藏隨意取用。三者指示，如視不明指示好醜，小乘眼智不明，指示道及非道。四者分別，謂世出世。五者顯現，或時毀善以助不善，貴令眾生得開解故。六者說法，說佛意趣。七者解釋，如囊有寶繫口人則不知，應為解佛經囊，釋其道理。八者析重令輕，種種譬喻令易解故。九者淺易，如水難度派令易度，般若水深能令淺易。」今文雖引探囊一文，意盡含於餘之八義，說者應須且釋八意。

Next, regarding 'The distinctions,' from the conventional and ultimate at the beginning to the horizontal and vertical at the end, the ten chapters are briefly differentiated by means of ten categories. The opening statement, 'The virtues of the ten chapters,' and so forth, clarifies the purpose of making distinctions. If one did not differentiate the ten chapters by means of the ten categories, one fears that people would not know the richness of the ten chapters. The phrase 'Like a jewel in a pouch,' and so forth, is an analogy for the purpose of making distinctions. The richness of the ten meanings is like a pouch containing jewels; the differentiation through various categories is like reaching in and showing them to others. Fascicle sixty-five of the Dazhidulun states: 'If one does not grasp at marks and speaks with an unattached mind, there are nine kinds, causing others to recite and uphold so that they can correctly bear it in mind: First is illuminating, because it causes those who do not know to know. Second is uncovering, like opening a treasure storehouse to take and use at will. Third is pointing out, like pointing out the fine and the ugly to one whose vision is unclear; to the unclear eye and wisdom of the Hinayana, it points out the path and the non-path. Fourth is differentiating, meaning the worldly and the world-transcending. Fifth is manifesting; at times it disparages the good to assist the unwholesome, solely to cause sentient beings to attain opening and understanding. Sixth is expounding the Dharma, explaining the Buddha's purport. Seventh is explaining and untying; like a pouch holding a jewel whose opening is tied so people do not know it, one must untie the pouch of the Buddha's sutras and explain their principle. Eighth is breaking down the heavy to make it light, using various parables to make it easy to understand. Ninth is making shallow and easy; just as water difficult to cross is diverted into channels to make it easy to cross, the deep water of Prajñā can be rendered shallow and easy.' Although the present text only cites the single passage on reaching into the pouch, its meaning completely encompasses the remaining eight meanings; an expositor must also explain these eight meanings.
