5.57

Regarding 'If briefly spoken, with respect to the five fields of knowledge... up to reading, reciting, and recollecting': this reveals the wisdom arisen from hearing produced in relation to the teachings of the five fields of knowledge. In this context, the Tripiṭaka Master offers two explanations: one says that this listening and so forth is innately acquired wisdom, whose meaning is the same as the innately acquired mind that receives and upholds the teachings in the Hīnayāna treatises; the other says that wisdom arisen from hearing associated with the six consciousnesses constitutes its nature; wisdom has three grades: the lower is called innately acquired, while both the middle and upper grades are called wisdom arisen from hearing.
