### [3.136](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777.3.136)

答曰：凡俗界內結業未除，故說生滅四諦，此正是對治。羅漢、菩薩，界內因疾已除，但迷不思議三諦之理，是故說三種四諦以折聲聞，說無作四實諦訶菩薩也。

> Answer: Because ordinary worldly beings have not yet eliminated their afflictions and karma within the triple realm, he expounds the four truths of arising and ceasing—this is precisely the corrective remedy. The arhats and bodhisattvas have already eliminated their causal sicknesses within the triple realm, but they are merely deluded about the principle of the inconceivable three truths; therefore, he expounds the three kinds of four truths to thwart the śrāvakas, and expounds the uncreated four real truths to rebuke the bodhisattvas.
