俱舍論記 24.88

24.88

「已辨第三至成無學應果」者，此下第四明阿羅漢向、果。就中，一明向、果差別；二因論明治道；三明盡智、後智；四便通明道果；五明六種種姓。此即第一明向、果差別，一結前、二生下、三頌釋。就頌中，前一頌半明向，後兩句明果。又《婆沙》六十五云「問：何故離欲界染立二沙門果，謂一來、不還果。離色界、無色界染立一沙門果，謂阿羅漢果。復次以欲界難斷難破難可越度，故離彼染立二果。色界、無色界易斷易破易可越度故，離彼染唯立一果（廣如彼釋）。」又云「問：何故離見所斷染立一沙門果，離修所斷染立後三沙門果耶？答：見所斷染易可遠離故，離彼時立初一沙門果。修所斷染難可遠離故，離彼時立後三沙門果。

[The phrase] "Having explained the third […] attains the aśaikṣa fruit of arhatship" introduces the fourth section below, which clarifies the candidate for and fruit of arhatship. Within this: first, clarifying the distinctions between the candidate and the fruit; second, taking occasion of the treatise to clarify the counteracting path; third, clarifying the knowledge of exhaustion and the subsequent knowledge; fourth, incidentally clarifying the path and its fruit; fifth, clarifying the six lineages. This is the first, clarifying the distinctions between the candidate and the fruit: 1. concluding the prior, 2. generating the following, 3. explaining with verses. In the verses, the first verse and a half clarifies the candidate, and the last two lines clarify the fruit. Furthermore, the Mahāvibhāṣā, fascicle 65, states: "Question: Why are two fruits of the recluse established based on detachment from the kāmadhātu—namely, the once-returner and non-returner fruits—while only one fruit of the recluse is established based on detachment from the rūpadhātu and ārūpyadhātu, namely, the fruit of arhatship? [Answer:] Furthermore, because the kāmadhātu is difficult to abandon, difficult to shatter, and difficult to cross over, two fruits are established upon detachment from it. Because the rūpadhātu and ārūpyadhātu are easy to abandon, easy to shatter, and easy to cross over, only one fruit is established upon detachment from them (as fully explained there)." It also states: "Question: Why is one fruit of the recluse established based on detachment from defilements abandoned by seeing, whereas the latter three fruits of the recluse are established based on detachment from defilements abandoned by cultivation? Answer: Because defilements abandoned by seeing are easy to depart from, the initial single fruit of the recluse is established when departing from them. Because defilements abandoned by cultivation are difficult to depart from, the latter three fruits of the recluse are established when departing from them."
