Answer: Because the mind is generated suddenly, one immediately transcends the two vehicles; regarding practice as gradual cultivation, one subsequently surpasses non-Buddhists. Furthermore, this having already surpassed is not yet the definitive surpassing, just as the second dhyāna is called the departure from suffering. Third from here is explaining the path lineage. The text has three parts as before; first is designating the stage and discerning its characteristics. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.188](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1709.2.188) - [Next: 2.190](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1709.2.190) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1709.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1709~en-mt.2.189) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1709.2.189](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1709.2.189) · Pramāṇa
