什師云：「三種六師，合十八部。」第一自稱一切智。《四教義》云：「邪心見理，發於邪智，辯才無礙。」第二得五神通。《四教義》云：「得世間禪，發五神通，亦有慈悲忍力，刀割香塗心無憎愛。」第三誦四韋陀經。《四教義》云：「博學多聞，通四韋陀十八大經。世間吉凶、天文地理、醫方卜相，無所不知。」《淨名疏》將此三種約六師，一師有三，三六十八種外道師也。《輔行》云：「六師元祖是迦毘羅，支流分異遂為六宗。」故今此集列六師焉。

Master Kumārajīva says: "There are three kinds of the six teachers, making eighteen schools in all." The first claims omniscience. The Sijiao yi states: "With a crooked mind seeing reality, crooked wisdom arises, and eloquence is unimpeded." The second obtains the five supernatural powers. The Sijiao yi states: "Attaining worldly dhyāna, the five supernatural powers arise; they also possess compassion and the power of patience: whether cut with a knife or smeared with incense, their mind has neither hatred nor love." The third recites the four Vedas. The Sijiao yi states: "They are learned and erudite, mastering the four Vedas and the eighteen great classics. In worldly fortunes and misfortunes, astronomy and geography, medicine, divination and physiognomy, there is nothing they do not know." The Jingming shu matches these three kinds to the six teachers: each teacher has three, making eighteen kinds of non-Buddhist teachers. The Fuxing states: "The primal ancestor of the six teachers was Kapila; its branching streams differentiated to become the six lineages." Therefore, this collection now enumerates the six teachers.
