唯識三十論要釋 1.4

1.4

Regarding 'what is subsumed' (saṃgṛhīta), according to various sūtras and treatises there are briefly three kinds, namely, subsumption under pitakas, subsumption under vehicles, and subsumption under periods. Pitakas refers to the two pitakas: the Bodhisattva and the Śrāvaka. Each of these two has three: sūtra, vinaya, and abhidharma, which respectively augment and explain concentration (samādhi) and wisdom (prajñā). Vehicles refers to the five vehicles: namely, the Unsurpassed, Pratyekabuddha, Śrāvaka, and the Human and Deva vehicles. Periods refers to the three periods: namely, the initial, middle, and final. The initial spoke solely of existence; the next spoke solely of emptiness; the final period spoke doubly of neither emptiness nor existence. This treatise is subsumed under the Abhidharma within the Bodhisattva Pitaka, because it displays the meaning of the bodhisattva's principle, practice, and fruit, and expounds the training in wisdom. Within the five vehicles, it is subsumed under the Unsurpassed Vehicle, showing that what is conveyed and that which conveys have nothing superior above them. Within the three periods, it is subsumed under the third period, showing that its exposition of existence and emptiness is the ultimate and complete principle. Clarifying what is subsumed is concluded.
