次五陰而辨十二入者。以惑者迷色偏重故。大聖教門。開色為十。心但為二。合為十二也。通稱入者。入以涉入為義。根塵相對則有識生。識依根塵仍為能入。根塵即是所入。今此十二從所入受名。故通受入名。內六入者。此之六法親故屬內。為識所依。故名為入。亦名根者。根以能生為義。此六既並有生識之功。故通名根也。
The fifth section explains the twelve sense fields by distinguishing them from the five aggregates. This is because those who are confused are particularly attached to form. Therefore, the teachings of the great sage divide form into ten, while mind is divided into two, making a total of twelve.
They are generally called "sense fields" because "field" refers to the act of entering. When a sense faculty and its object come into contact, consciousness arises. Consciousness, relying on the sense faculty and object, becomes that which enters, while the sense faculty and object are that which is entered. Here, these twelve are named based on what is entered, so they are all called "sense fields."
The six internal sense fields are called such because these six are intimate and belong internally. They serve as the basis for consciousness, hence they are called "sense fields." They are also called "faculties" because "faculty" refers to the ability to generate. Since these six all have the function of generating consciousness, they are collectively called "faculties."
