天台《觀經疏》曰「初業共凡夫，次共二乘，後是大乘不共之法。第一敬上接下，慈心行也。修十善業，是其止行，身除三邪、口離四過、意斷三惡。第二在家戒，亦即十戒。具足眾戒者，道俗備受微細。不犯威儀者，三千悉不缺也。第三發菩提心是願，起意趣向名為發心。佛果圓通，說為菩提。讀誦大乘，明修解也。行能運通，說之為乘。」《妙宗》曰「此三種業，得前者不得後後，得後後者必得前前。」

Tiantai's Commentary on the Contemplation Sūtra says: "The first karma is shared with commoners; the second is shared with the two vehicles; the third is the uncommon Dharma of the Mahāyāna. The first is to revere superiors and care for inferiors, which is compassionate action. Cultivating the ten wholesome karmas is its practice of cessation: the body abandons the three evils, the mouth avoids the four faults, and the mind cuts off the three unwholesome states. The second is the precepts for householders, which are also the ten precepts. Being 'complete in all the precepts' means that both monastics and laity fully receive the subtle details. 'Not violating deportments' means that none of the three thousand deportments are lacking. The third, 'generating bodhicitta,' is the vow; giving rise to the intention to incline toward it is called 'generating the mind.' The fruit of buddhahood is perfect and unobstructed, and is spoken of as bodhi. 'Reading and reciting the Mahāyāna' clarifies cultivating understanding. Practice is able to transport and carry through, hence it is spoken of as a 'vehicle.'" The Miaozong says: "Among these three kinds of karma, those who attain the former do not necessarily attain the latter, but those who attain the latter must attain the former."
