曉悟群蒙(廣雅曰曉說也鄭注禮記曰羣眾也韓康伯注易蒙昧幼小之皃說文曰蒙謂童蒙也言凡夫於道未有所識如幼童蒙菩薩說文令開悟也說音書銳反)。

Instructing and awakening the unenlightened masses (*xiaowu qunmeng*; the *Guangya* states: "*Xiao* means to explain." Zheng Xuan's commentary on the *Book of Rites* states: "*Qun* means the multitude." Han Kangbo's commentary on the *Book of Changes* states: "*Meng* denotes an ignorant and youthful appearance." The *Shuowen* states: "*Meng* refers to untutored youth." It means ordinary people lack understanding regarding the Path, like young and untutored children, and the bodhisattva expounds the teachings to open their understanding; *shuo* [expound] is pronounced with the *fanqie* onset *shu* and rhyme *rui*).
