1.266

述曰:菩薩根機,名為應受法無我教,由知諸法唯有識故。菩薩根者,便能悟入諸法無我,除計法執,得成佛果。是諸法空,唯有識教之勝利也。然佛世尊有三時教,此唯識教,第三時說,令得佛果,故非密意。有情無我教,是第一時教,令得二乘果,故名密意說。

The Commentary says: The capacities of bodhisattvas are termed 'those fit to receive the teaching of the selflessness of phenomena,' because they know that all phenomena are vijñapti-mātra. Those of bodhisattva capacity are then able to awaken to and enter into the selflessness of phenomena, eliminate attachment to conceptualized phenomena, and attain the fruition of buddhahood. This is the excellent benefit of the teaching that all phenomena are empty and are vijñapti-mātra. However, the Buddha, the World-Honoured One, has teachings of three periods: this teaching of vijñapti-mātra was expounded in the third period to cause [beings] to attain the fruition of buddhahood, and therefore it is not of intentional meaning. The teaching of the selflessness of sentient beings is the teaching of the first period, to cause [beings] to attain the fruition of the two vehicles, and is therefore called an exposition of intentional meaning.
