7.31

The Commentary says: The fourth is that the son thereupon became anxious and panicked. Retreating from the Great [Vehicle] and not cultivating it, instead dwelling in saṃsāra, is called fainting and collapsing to the ground. If he were to practice the great practice, it would go against his original intent in seeking and would be no different from death; this is called ‘I will surely be killed.’ Why should the uncorrupted clothing and food of the Mahāyāna have brought him to this all of a sudden?
