摩訶止觀 3.190

3.190

小者，小乘也。智慧力弱，但堪修析法止觀，析於色、心。如《釋論》解檀波羅蜜，破外道隣虛云：「此塵為有、為無？若有極微色，則有十方分；若無極微色，則無十方分。」若析極微色不盡，則成常見、有見；若析極微盡，則成斷見、無見。此外道析色也。析心亦如是，若計有心、無心，皆墮斷、常。此皆外道析色心也。

The 'small' is the Hīnayāna. Its power of wisdom is weak, capable only of cultivating the calming and contemplation that analyzes dharmas, analyzing form and mind. As the Treatise explains in its exposition of dānapāramitā, refuting the tīrthikas' adjacent infinitesimals: 'Is this dust-mote existent or non-existent? If there are infinitesimal forms, then there are directional divisions in the ten directions; if there are no infinitesimal forms, then there are no directional divisions in the ten directions.' If the analysis of infinitesimal forms is not exhaustive, one falls into the view of permanence and the view of existence; if the analysis of infinitesimals is exhaustive, one falls into the view of annihilation and the view of non-existence. This is the tīrthikas' analysis of form. The analysis of mind is also like this: if one posits the existence or non-existence of mind, both fall into annihilation and permanence. These are all the tīrthikas' analyses of form and mind.
