說無垢稱經疏 6.266

6.266

贊曰：二別顯。有二：初顯得聲聞、後顯得菩薩。聲聞有三，此從凡得見諦。具壽者，舊云「慧命」，呼阿難陀為具壽也。世間有情多愛於命，聞言長壽，誰不生歡。出家之人多愛智慧，聞言智慧，誰不生喜。亦如俗人之愛命也，由此舊經呼為「慧命」。壽者命也，具足世命及具出世之智慧命，不可偏彰故命雙呼，通言具壽。已發聲聞之心，未入見諦，食已要入，然後乃消，極速三生、極遲六十劫。正性離生，義如前釋。

Commentary: Second, specific elucidation. There are two parts: first, elucidating the attainment of the Śrāvaka; second, elucidating the attainment of the bodhisattva. Among the Śrāvakas there are three; this is proceeding from an ordinary person to seeing the truths (darśanamārga). 'Venerable' (āyuṣmat) was previously translated as 'wise-life' (huiming), addressing Ānanda as 'Venerable'. Sentient beings in the world mostly cherish life; hearing the mention of long life, who would not rejoice? Renunciants mostly cherish wisdom; hearing the mention of wisdom, who would not be delighted? Just as secular people cherish life, the old sūtras therefore addressed them as 'wise-life'. 'Longevity' is life; possessing worldly life and possessing supramundane life of wisdom, neither should be uniquely emphasized, so both are addressed together, commonly called 'Venerable' (āyuṣmat). Having given rise to the aspiration of a Śrāvaka but not yet entered the seeing of the truths, having eaten, one must enter it, and only then is it digested: at the fastest, three lives; at the slowest, sixty eons. 'Realization of the correctness of the noble path' (samyaktva-niyāma-avakrānti) has the meaning explained previously.
