頓教者。有約部約教二義。約部則別在華嚴。約教則通於餘時。今此正當約部明頓之教。對下三漸化儀為言也。下文云。從部時味得名為頓是也。華嚴為部。先照為時。乳為味。合此三義為部時味。簡餘時也。下鹿苑時。亦可得云從部時味得名為漸初。此後可例。

> The Sudden Teaching has two meanings: in terms of section and in terms of teaching. In terms of section, it belongs specifically to the \*Huayan\*. In terms of teaching, it pervades the other periods. Here it precisely refers to the sudden teaching in terms of section, stated in contrast to the conversion methods of the three gradual ones below. The following text states: 'From its section, period, and flavor, it gets the name Sudden.' \*Huayan\* is the section; the first shining \[of the sun\] is the period; milk is the flavor. Combining these three meanings constitutes section, period, and flavor, differentiating it from the other periods. Below, the Deer Park period can likewise be said to obtain the name 'beginning of the Gradual' from section, period, and flavor; the rest follow this pattern.
