成唯識論了義燈 7.13

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [7.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832.7.13)

答：經辨三時非約前、後，但以類相：從有為第一；空為第二；俱為第三。以三自性遍計是空，餘二是有，故當第三。又據漸悟一類菩薩說此三時，非望頓悟。

> Answer: The sūtra's distinction of the three periods is not in terms of prior and posterior, but only by the characteristics of categories: proceeding from existence as the first, emptiness as the second, and both as the third. Since among the three self-natures the imagined is empty and the remaining two exist, it corresponds to the third. Furthermore, these three periods are expounded with respect to the class of bodhisattvas of gradual enlightenment, not in view of sudden enlightenment.
