瑜伽師地論略纂 10.3

10.3

In the one verse of the treatise, there are altogether ten phenomena. What are the ten phenomena? They are enumerated in the subsequent text. The previous three yogas subsume these ten phenomena: the first yoga subsumes solely the single phenomenon of support; the second yoga explains the next four phenomena; the third yoga explains the subsequent five phenomena. These refer to the eighteen chapters. The fourth, serial yoga, solely discriminates the sequence of all the previous three yogas, without any other distinct phenomenon. Question: Among these four, why does the first alone obtain the name 'support'? Within this support, because three supports are explained: first, gotra; second, capability; third, as the factors conducive to awakening. These three meanings are called 'support' and are extensively explained here; therefore, it obtains the name 'support'. The rest will be explained as the text arrives.
