2.103

什曰:小乘中初梵有三種、大乘中有四種,餘上三地亦如是。梵王雖有定慧而非出要,誨以佛慧,故言勝也。肇曰:梵天多著禪福,不求出世勝慧也。

[Kumāra]jīva says: In the Hīnayāna, the initial Brahmā heaven has three levels; in the Mahāyāna, there are four levels; the remaining upper three realms are also like this. Although the Brahmā king possesses concentration and wisdom, they are not the essential path of transcendence; he instructed him with the Buddha's wisdom, hence it is called 'superior.' [Seng]zhao says: Brahmā gods are mostly attached to the dhyāna blessings and do not seek world-transcending superior wisdom.
