2.7

Second, explaining the differences in gotra. If according to Hīnayāna, there are six kinds of gotra: retrogression, thought, protection, abiding, progress, and immobility. Within the immobile gotra there are three grades: the superior is the buddha-gotra; the middling is the pratyekabuddha-gotra; the inferior is the śrāvaka-gotra, such as Śāriputra and others. Although here it speaks of the single person of the Buddha having the buddha-gotra, it is nevertheless not the nature of great bodhi, because it does not state that the Buddha's virtues arise in great function to the end of the future, and so on. Therefore one should know that in this teaching, apart from the single person of the Buddha, all other sentient beings are not said to have the nature of great bodhi. The remaining points are as explained in the Hīnayāna treatises.
