1.182

依因善友作意等者。一依因力。謂即性習二種為因。二善友力。謂即十方諸佛菩薩。三作意力。謂於大乘深生信解。四資糧力。謂即福智二種資糧。由此四種能修勝行。故說依於四勝力也。

Regarding "Relying on causes, good friends, attention," etc.: First is the power of the causal basis: namely, taking the two kinds, nature and habit, as cause. Second is the power of good friends: namely, the Buddhas and bodhisattvas of the ten directions. Third is the power of attention: namely, generating deep faith and understanding in the Mahāyāna. Fourth is the power of provisions: namely, the two kinds of provisions, merit and wisdom. By these four, one can cultivate superior practices; hence it is said to rely on the four superior powers.
