金剛般若經贊述 2.250

The Commentary says: Vasubandhu states that from here on, the doubt of the second subdivision is refuted. That is, there is a doubt that says: 'If it is by fulfilling all wholesome dharmas that bodhi is attained, then the spoken teaching cannot attain great bodhi. Why is this? Because the spoken teaching consists of indeterminate dharmas (avyākṛta).' The meaning of this is: the expressive teaching has names, sentences, and phonemes, and its nature is indeterminate; how could listening to it generate what is wholesome? This is a doubt raised by followers of the Hīnayāna. Within refuting this doubt, first, merit is cited; next, it is comparatively measured against receiving and upholding. This is the first [part].
