是故文殊師利。凡夫於佛法有反覆。而聲聞無也。所以者何。凡夫聞佛法能起無上道心不斷三寶。正使聲聞終身聞佛法力無畏等。永不能發無上道意 四結無反覆。凡夫能成菩提以報佛恩。二乘息滅而永斷也。

"Therefore, Mañjuśrī, ordinary beings have reciprocity toward the Buddha Dharma, but voice-hearers do not. Why is this? When ordinary beings hear the Buddha Dharma, they can give rise to the supreme aspiration for the path and not sever the Three Jewels. Even if voice-hearers spend their whole lives hearing the Buddha Dharma, the powers, fearlessnesses, and so forth, they can never generate the supreme intention for the path." Fourth, concluding on the lack of reciprocity: ordinary beings can achieve bodhi so as to repay the Buddha's kindness; those of the two vehicles cease and extinguish, forever cutting it off.
