第七問答明隨根立乘。於中,初明立乘頭數證得時量。補闕云:言證得時量,亦不決定者,明彼二乘滿時不定,聲聞之人極少三生,多六十劫,中間多少義不決定,獨覺極少四生,極多百劫,中間多少時亦不定,大乘要經三無數劫方可證得。

The seventh question and answer clarifies establishing the vehicles according to faculties. Within this, it first clarifies the number of established vehicles and the duration of realization. The Supplement states: Regarding the statement that the duration of realization is also not fixed, it explains that the completion time of those of the two vehicles is indefinite: for a śrāvaka, the minimum is three lifetimes and the maximum is sixty kalpas, while the amount in between is not fixed in meaning; for a pratyekabuddha, the minimum is four lifetimes and the maximum is one hundred kalpas, while the time in between is also indefinite; for the Mahāyāna, one must pass through three incalculable kalpas before one can attain realization.
