正位却偏，就偏辨得，是圓兩意。逐位揀出曰：「正位却偏者，為不對物，雖不對物却具。」　別揀曰：「正位却偏，正中無用為偏，全用為圓，是兩意。」問：「如何是全？」云：「不頑者得底人也。此位不明來也，若佛出世也恁麼，若佛不出世也恁麼，所以千聖萬聖皆歸正位承當。」　別時揀曰：「正中偏却具此一位，第一不得動著。」

“The correct rank yet turns to the biased; discerned in terms of the biased, it rounds out the two meanings.” Discriminating rank by rank, it is said: “That ‘the correct rank yet turns to the biased’ is because it does not confront objects; although it does not confront objects, it nonetheless possesses them.” Another discrimination says: “In ‘the correct rank yet turns to the biased,’ having no function within the correct is the biased; complete function is the rounded—these are the two meanings.” It was asked, “What is the complete?” He said, “One who is not insensate is a person who has attained it. This rank does not clarify ‘coming.’ If a Buddha appears in the world, it is thus; if a Buddha does not appear in the world, it is also thus. Therefore, all the thousands and myriads of sages return to the correct rank to take charge of it.” In a discrimination made on another occasion, it was said: “Bias within the correct possesses this single rank; above all, you must not stir it.”
