11.3

第一簡別、圓兩教明位不同者,圓教既詮圓理,菩薩稟教,圓斷五住之惑,開佛知見,住大涅槃,是則教圓、理圓、智圓、斷圓、行圓、位圓、因圓、果圓,不同別教,具如前說。今略更用五義釋別、圓兩教不同之相也:一約斷無明判位高下不同,二約斷界內、界外見思不同,三約斷不斷不同,四約位明法門別、圓不同,五約位通不通不同。

First, distinguishing the differences in explaining stages between the two teachings, distinctive and perfect: Since the perfect teaching elucidates the perfect principle, when a bodhisattva receives the teaching, they perfectly sever the delusions of the five entrenchments, open the Buddha's knowledge and vision, and abide in the great nirvāṇa. Thus, teaching is perfect, principle is perfect, wisdom is perfect, severing is perfect, practice is perfect, stage is perfect, cause is perfect, and fruition is perfect—unlike the distinctive teaching, fully as explained before. Now we shall briefly employ five points to explain the characteristics of difference between the two teachings, distinctive and perfect: first, distinguishing the differences in higher and lower stages in terms of severing ignorance; second, the differences in terms of severing views and thoughts within the realms and beyond the realms; third, the differences in terms of severing versus not severing; fourth, the differences of distinctive versus perfect in clarifying Dharma gates in terms of stages; fifth, the differences in terms of whether stages penetrate each other or not.
