5.79

Answer: The various differing explanations of scripture masters are all unclear; now it will be briefly explained to make it easy to understand. The Buddha opened the three vehicles for persons of three faculties; those of middling faculties despise śrāvakas following a teacher, yet also fear the length and distance of the Buddha Path, and therefore they appear in an era without a buddha and become pratyekabuddhas. Hence there are no pratyekabuddhas in the assembly of the Saddharmapuṇḍarīka-sūtra.
