大乘起信論廣釋卷第三．四．五 5.48

5.48

The treatise says: "Having explained the section on exposition, next is the section on cultivating practice and faith." The commentary says: The section on exposition is finished; next it explains the fourth, cultivating practice and faith. In this there are two parts: first, concluding the preceding and introducing the subsequent; second, directly demonstrating the cultivation of practice and faith. This is the first. The preceding section on exposition extensively elucidated the Mahāyāna; now it wishes to extensively demonstrate the meaning of awakening faith.
