以三對者,三有二種:一《普曜經》中三,謂獨覺等三;二素呾纜等三,獨覺之教無別部類,不可別說有此十二教之差別,但同聲聞。聲聞、菩薩前二藏中已具釋訖。《顯揚》第六、《瑜伽論》第二十五說「十二分中契經、應頌、記別、諷頌、自說、譬喻、本事、本生、方廣、希法,是為素呾纜藏;所說因緣,是為毘奈耶藏;所說論議,是為阿毘達磨藏。此說十部是素呾纜,唯說一部是毘奈耶,唯說一部是對法藏。」素呾纜中雖具十二,因事制戒正毘奈耶,論難甚深亦唯對法,略此二部非素呾纜,素呾纜中非無此二。譬喻、本事、本生三種,理實亦通毘奈耶攝。《對法》說為毘奈耶藏,律中多說譬喻等故。是眷屬攝,自性即非。《顯揚》等論,依自性非毘奈耶攝,故說彼三是素呾纜。《對法》依眷屬說是毘奈耶。各望一邊,不相違也。上來總是三藏對也。

Regarding matching by three pairs: the three are of two kinds. First, the three in the Lalitavistara, namely the pratyekabuddha [piṭaka] and the other two; second, the three consisting of the sūtra [piṭaka] and so forth. The teachings for pratyekabuddhas do not form a distinct category of their own, so one cannot separately state that they have the distinction of these twelve divisions of teaching; they simply correspond to the śrāvakas. The preceding two piṭakas of the śrāvaka and bodhisattva have already been fully explained above. Fascicle six of the Xianyang [shengjiao lun] and fascicle twenty-five of the Yogācārabhūmi state: "Among the twelve divisions, sūtra, geya, vyākaraṇa, gāthā, udāna, avadāna, itivṛttaka, jātaka, vaipulya, and adbhutadharma constitute the Sūtrapiṭaka; nidāna as taught constitutes the Vinayapiṭaka; upadeśa as taught constitutes the Abhidharmapiṭaka. This explains that ten divisions are the Sūtra[piṭaka], only one division is the Vinaya[piṭaka], and only one division is the Abhidharmapiṭaka." Although the twelve are fully present within the sūtras, formulating precepts in response to events is strictly the Vinaya, and inquiring into and debating what is profound is also exclusively Abhidharma; [those texts] set aside these two divisions as not being sūtras, but it is not that these two are absent within sūtras. As for the three—avadāna, itivṛttaka, and jātaka—in actual fact they also are subsumed under the Vinaya. The Abhidharmasamuccaya states that they are the Vinayapiṭaka, because the Vinaya frequently teaches avadānas and the like. This is subsumption as retinues, whereas by their intrinsic nature they are not. Treatises such as the Xianyang rely on their intrinsic nature not being subsumed under the Vinaya, and thus state that those three are the Sūtra[piṭaka]. The Abhidharmasamuccaya relies on their being retinues to say they are the Vinaya. Each regards one aspect, so they do not contradict one another. The above has altogether been the matching of the three piṭakas.
