4. These very stages can be applied to the other two. Superior, inferior, middling etc., singularity and so on can also be understood [thus].
 
[a-b: this means that you could say the same about past and future in relation to the present and present and past in relation to future as you can of present and future in relation to past as Nagarjuna has just done in v. 1-3.]
