2.13

又蒙決通之後，事法觀成，乃名事法觀中悟入，不名約行觀中得悟也。如引眾經成今止觀，若得悟者，豈名諸經悟入耶？此則初心行人不待自尋《止觀》，亦不待師匠專講《止觀》，然後聽尋方修觀行也。又觀道深妙，故須宗匠開決。

Furthermore, after receiving resolution and clarity, when the phenomenal contemplation is completed, it is called awakening and entering within phenomenal contemplation; it is not called attaining awakening within contemplation according to the stages of praxis. Just as when quoting various sutras to establish the present Zhiguan, if one attains awakening, could that be called awakening and entering via those various sutras? Thus a beginner practitioner does not wait to independently search through the Zhiguan, nor do they wait for a master to specifically lecture on the Zhiguan before listening, searching, and then cultivating contemplation practice. Moreover, because the path of contemplation is profound and subtle, it requires a lineage master to open and resolve it.
