異生(或云愚異生言愚癡闇冥不生無漏故也舊譯云小兒別生以癡如小兒也或云小兒凡夫又作嬰愚凡夫或云毛道凡夫或云毛頭凡夫義雖是一失之遠矣初釋為正)。
Ordinary beings (異生; also called foolish ordinary beings (pṛthagjana), meaning they are foolish, blind, and ignorant, and do not generate the uncontaminated [dharma]. The older translations said "children born apart" because their delusion is like that of young children. Some say "child-like ordinary persons", or "infantile and foolish ordinary persons", or "hair-path ordinary persons", or "hairy-headed ordinary persons"; although the sense is similar, they miss the mark widely. The first explanation is correct).
