4.108

「汝得至惡道」,二、呵非應供。善吉謂得無諍三昧,是良福田。一切眾生亦得是定,何以言非應供、良福田?根本禪定、四無量心、無諍等定,眾生久劫亦經得之。故《大經》云「凡夫皆有初地味禪。」

"You attain [...] evil destinies": second, rebuking him for not being worthy of offerings. Subhūti thinks that because he has attained the concentration of non-dispute, he is a good field of merit. All sentient beings have also attained this concentration; why say he is not worthy of offerings and not a good field of merit? The fundamental dhyānas, the four immeasurables, and concentrations such as non-dispute have also been experienced and attained by sentient beings over long kalpas. Therefore, the Mahāparinirvāṇa Sūtra says: 'Worldly beings all possess the dhyāna of tasting of the first stage.'
