3.37

(passage) Only the two names 'common' and 'separate' are widespread across various texts; they were established in meaning by the Great Master. For example, the Sijiaoyi quotes the Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā: 'The wisdom of sarvajñā is shared and attained by the three vehicles'; the Mūlamadhyamakakārikā: 'The true mark of all phenomena is entered together by the three kinds of persons.' These are both the meaning of the common teaching. 'Common' means shared. Because the three vehicles share in receiving it, it is named 'common.'
