3.444

Regarding those who cannot, they cannot because of six kinds of obstacles: 1. “Doubt”: because they hesitate over the Principle. 2. “Lack of faith”: because they are icchantikas. 3. “Disparagement”: because they are non-Buddhists. 4. “Grave transgressions and karmic obstacles”: meaning people who have committed the five heinous sins or the four grave offenses. 5. “Arrogance”: because they rely on the self and elevate themselves. 6. “Indolence”: because they are heedless and unremitting. If someone has any one of these six kinds, they cannot enter.
