瑜伽論記 13.44

13.44

答：此中皆有二人，聲聞之中有二人：一、根不熟，二、根未熟。初決定性，二不定性故不為開演：若不定性根熟，何不為演之。凡夫亦爾，一、根不熟無種姓人，二、根未熟，故不為說。今約聞者，皆根已熟故得之，今言於凡愚不開演者，義在於此。

Answer: Here there are two types of persons in each case. Among the śrāvakas there are two types of persons: first, those whose faculties are not mature; second, those whose faculties are not yet mature. The first are of determinate nature, and the second are of indeterminate nature; hence it is not elaborated for them. If those of indeterminate nature have mature faculties, why would it not be elaborated for them? Ordinary beings are also like this: first, those whose faculties are not mature, persons without gotra; second, those whose faculties are not yet mature; hence it is not taught to them. Now, regarding those who hear it, they are all those whose faculties have already matured, and therefore they receive it. Now saying that 'to the ordinary and the foolish, I do not reveal it', the meaning lies in this.
