四明十義書 1.169

1.169

故知若作上根得入觀行真似，以淨心歷法任運泯合釋之，即無諸過兼合諸文。以荊溪自云：上根一觀，即入初住或內外凡。此之三位，豈不能以淨心歷法任運泯合耶？

Therefore, we know that if one interprets it as an individual of superior capacity gaining entry into [the stages of] contemplation-practice, true [realisation], or semblance [realisation], using the purified mind to pass through phenomena so that they spontaneously merge, then there will be no errors and it will fully accord with the various texts. For Jingxi himself states: 'A person of superior capacity, with a single contemplation, enters the first abidance or the inner and outer ordinary [stages].' Could these three stages not use the purified mind to pass through phenomena and spontaneously merge them?
