答：對不定姓，約理說一。破執理別，令其趣大。若其定姓，觀行不同，說如藥草。乘即有別，故得通被。然多為不定，故說此經。唯說一乘，為諸聲聞所作事故等。

> Answer: For those of indeterminate lineage, it speaks of oneness in terms of the principle. It refutes their clinging to different principles and causes them to advance toward the Great \[Vehicle\]. If they are of determinate lineage, their contemplative practices differ, and it speaks of them as like medicinal herbs. The vehicles are thus distinct, and so it can apply generally. However, it was mostly for the indeterminate that this sūtra was spoken. It speaks solely of the one vehicle for the sake of the deeds done by the śrāvakas, and so forth.
