5.44

次明「迴轉」者,先序二論中言「始終」者,二論並以始鈍終利。今言須臾,故不同彼。次明自行,則止觀並說,亦先標二行。教他以說法為本,故先信後法;自行多在於思惟,故先法後信。前教他中十六番,各屬一人,故止觀離明;今自行中並在一人,故止觀合明。又前非不合,今非不離(云云)。

Next, explaining "turning around": first, reciting the mention of "beginning and end" in the two treatises: both treatises take the beginning as dull and the end as sharp. Now mentioning an "instant," it is therefore not identical to them. Next, explaining one's own practice, calming and contemplation are taught together, and the two practices are also first designated. Teaching others takes preaching the Dharma as its basis; therefore, faith comes first and Dharma comes after. One's own practice relies mostly on reflection; therefore, Dharma comes first and faith comes after. In the preceding [section on] teaching others, there were sixteen turns, each belonging to one person; therefore, calming and contemplation were explained separately. Now in one's own practice, both reside in a single person; therefore, calming and contemplation are explained together. Furthermore, previously they were not uncombined, and now they are not unseparated (and so forth).
