妙法蓮華經玄贊 4.267

4.267

贊曰：下三頌正說真實，分二：初一頌明鈍不堪授，後二頌明利則堪授。此初也。有五過失不堪受大：一鈍根，聞法不解，或阿顛底迦；二小智，雖復聰明情見不廣，或趣寂者；三者著相，謂起計執空、有二相，錯學亂行，或不定種姓，執有非空根未熟故；四憍者，恃己盛事，諸富貴者醉逸縱任，或根未熟有性凡夫稟性醉逸；五慢者，恃己陵他，五千之輩，或復具起七種慢等諸煩惱者，不能信大，不應授與。

The commentary states: The three verses below directly preach the truth, divided into two: first, one verse explaining that the dull-witted are incapable of being taught; second, two verses explaining that the sharp-witted are indeed capable of being taught. This is the first. There are five faults due to which they are incapable of receiving the Great [Vehicle]: first, dull faculties, hearing the Dharma without understanding it, or being icchantikas; second, inferior wisdom, though clever, their perspectives and views are not broad, or they seek extinction; third, attachment to marks, producing clinging grasp to the two marks of emptiness and existence, mistakenly studying and chaotically practicing, or being of indeterminate lineage, clinging to existence and rejecting emptiness because their faculties are not yet mature; fourth, arrogance, relying on their own prosperity, those of wealth and status being intoxicated, indolent, and unrestrained, or ordinary beings endowed with nature whose faculties are not yet mature being by nature intoxicated and indolent; fifth, haughtiness, relying on oneself to look down on others, such as the cohort of five thousand, or those who fully generate all afflictions such as the seven types of conceit; they cannot believe in the Great [Vehicle], and it should not be imparted to them.
