大乘入道次第開決 1.195

1.195

三謂無間解脫勝進者。謂從加行創起聖智。所應斷惑一念斷盡更不隔念。名無間道。前斷障種後捨麁重。證前所斷煩惱解脫真如之智。名解脫道。為欲進斷餘品煩惱。證餘功德所有加行。無間解脫勝品諸道。總名勝進。故勝進道亦不離前無間解脫。念念進趣即名勝進。故前但說二。謂無間解脫道也。或約總別別開勝進。如斷欲界上三品惑。品品須起無間解脫。總起勝進斷中三品。故此文中許三心也。雜集更有多種復次義釋勝進道。恐繁不敘。

"Three refers to the unhindered, liberation, and superior advancement [paths]": When noble wisdom first arises from proximate preparation, the afflictions that should be severed are completely severed in a single moment without any intervening moment, which is called the unhindered path. First severing the seeds of the hindrances and subsequently casting off the coarseness, the wisdom that realizes the tathatā of liberation from the previously severed afflictions is called the path of liberation. In order to advance and sever the remaining grades of afflictions and realize other merits, all proximate preparation, unhindered, and liberation paths of superior grades are collectively called superior advancement. Therefore, the path of superior advancement is also not apart from the previous unhindered and liberation [paths]; advancing from moment to moment is called superior advancement. Hence, previously only two were spoken of, namely the unhindered and liberation paths. Alternatively, in terms of general and specific, superior advancement is separately distinguished: as when severing the upper three grades of afflictions of the desire realm, each grade requires the arising of an unhindered and a liberation path, while superior advancement generally arises to sever the middle three grades; hence, in this text three minds are admitted. The Abhidharmasamuccaya-vyākhyā has even more alternative explanations of the path of superior advancement, but for fear of prolixity they are not recounted.
