瑜伽論記 18.75

18.75

The answer contains two points: First, if there were one who leaps beyond to realize the state of a non-returner, relying on the fourth dhyāna to arouse the [stage of] heat and the like, because they cultivate contemplation of the conventional truth through the sixteen aspects, they should sever the two bondages with utmost purity just like the noble path; yet this is not accepted, and therefore a mind with marks does not sever the bondages. Second, if that path with marks were able to sever the two bondages, then it should have no difference from the supramundane path; yet there is a difference, and so it is not reasonable.
