論。菩薩發是至見於法身 述曰。上顯行成發心之相。次下第三障其發心所得利益。於中有四。一顯勝德。二明微過。三通權教。四歎實行。初中又二。初明自利功德。後顯利他功德。此初也。發是心者。即發如前三種心也。由其直心正念真如深心悲心助顯真故。真性似顯故。名少分見法身也。

[Treatise:] When a bodhisattva generates this... perceives the dharmakāya.
[Exposition:] The above revealed the characteristics of the aspiration generated upon the completion of practice. Next, the third [part] treats the benefits obtained from generating the aspiration. Within this, there are four: first, revealing superior virtues; second, explaining minor faults; third, harmonizing with provisional teachings; fourth, praising real practice. Within the first, there are again two: first, explaining the merit of self-benefit; later, revealing the merit of benefiting others. This is the first. 'Generating this mind' means generating the aforementioned three kinds of minds. Because the straightforward mind correctly recollects suchness, while the deep mind and compassionate mind aid in revealing suchness, the true nature seems to be revealed; therefore, it is called 'perceiving the dharmakāya in a partial manner.'
