3.468

This means that a practitioner cultivating the bodhisattva practice of the Mahāyāna must rely on this samādhi of tathatā in order to enter the lineage, the stage of non-retrogression; other than this, there is no road by which one can enter. Hence it says, 'If ordinary persons [...] it is impossible.' Here, 'lineage' is explained in terms of the stage of non-retrogression from the ten abodes onward.
