大乘起信論義記 1.17

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.1.17)

第四教所被機，說有二重：一、約權教，即五種姓中菩薩種姓及不定性，是此所為；餘三非此，以無分故，如《瑜伽》等說。二、約實教，一切眾生皆此所為，以無不皆當得菩提故。

> Fourth, regarding the faculties addressed by the teaching, there are two levels of explanation: First, in terms of the provisional teaching, it addresses the bodhisattva gotra and the indeterminate gotra among the five gotras; the other three \[gotras\] are not addressed by this, because they lack the capacity, as taught in the Yogācārabhūmiśāstra and elsewhere. Second, in terms of the definitive teaching, it addresses all sentient beings without exception, because there are none who will not ultimately attain bodhi.
