起信論疏筆削記 18.21

18.21

標意。疏　勝人即前發直等三心，行不住等四行。入正定者，劣人即前見佛色相，或是二乘發人天等心，却退失者。以四信等者，意不令信佛僧等色相，起人天二乘等劣行。還依等者，信既成滿，應如前文，發直等三心，修無住等四行，入於十住，乃至獲利，更發解證等心也。斯則前雖揀退，今即教修也。

Indicating the intent. [Commentary:] "Superior individuals" are those who previously gave rise to the three minds, such as the straightforward mind, and practiced the four practices, such as non-abiding, entering the truly determined. "Inferior individuals" are those who previously saw the physical marks of the Buddha, or those of the two vehicles who gave rise to minds seeking human and heavenly rebirths and then fell back. "Through the four faiths..." and so forth means not letting them place faith in the physical marks of the Buddha and Saṅgha and give rise to the inferior practices of humans, devas, and the two vehicles. "Again relying..." and so forth means that once faith is perfected and fulfilled, one should, as in the previous text, give rise to the three minds such as the straightforward mind, cultivate the four practices such as non-abiding, enter the ten abodes, and even attain benefit, further generating the minds of understanding and realization. Thus, although the previous text eliminated those who fall back, the present text instructs in cultivation.
