2.13

四無畏者,初一切智無畏、二漏盡無畏、三障道無畏、四盡苦道無畏。答難不怯,故名無畏。此三乘義,與小乘共,但義深淺不同。一乘無畏之義,具其十種,即無盡法,如下〈不思議法品〉說。

The four fearlessnesses are: first, fearlessness in [claiming] omniscience; second, fearlessness in [claiming] the exhaustion of outflows; third, fearlessness in [explaining] obstacles to the path; fourth, fearlessness in [explaining] the path to ending suffering. Answering difficulties without cowardice is therefore called 'fearlessness'. This Triyāna meaning is shared with the Hīnayāna, but the meanings differ in depth. The meaning of fearlessness in the Ekayāna possesses ten kinds, which are inexhaustible dharmas, as explained below in the 'Chapter on Inconceivable Dharmas'.
