瑜伽論記 8.14

8.14

In the former part, there are briefly four kinds of persons who initiate preparations to transcend the world; the fourth person refers to all bodhisattvas who delight in ultimate great bodhi in future lifetimes, not in the present life. Ji says: this meaning clarifies that a bodhisattva's future buddhahood is not a present-life phenomenon; although the mundane path is a present-life preparation, because one prepares on the mundane path in order to mature sentient beings within saṃsāra, if a woman's mind is directed toward future buddhahood, she initiates preparation for the supramundane path. Now, according to the previous meaning, there are further two kinds: first, those fully bound, namely ordinary persons; second, those not fully bound, namely trainees.
