1.223

准疏家釋,取二乘無學解脫道後世間定心,虛指此為種智之車引子令出,此世間心,實不能了一切法,故出門不得。可須臾修,義言索車。故論云第一人者與世間種種善根三昧功德令其遊戲,後令入大涅槃故。

According to the commentator's explanation, they take the mundane concentrated mind subsequent to the path of liberation of the two vehicles' [stage] beyond training; provisionally designating this as the cart of all-knowledge, it induces the children to come out. This mundane mind cannot truly understand all dharmas, so on emerging through the gate they do not obtain it. It may be cultivated for a moment, which in meaning is called 'demanding the cart.' Therefore the treatise says: 'For the first person, one gives various mundane wholesome roots and the virtues of samādhi to let them sport, and afterward causes them to enter great nirvāṇa.'
