The Yogācārins are of opinion that the Hinayānists attain only Vimuktikāya or Mokṣa, while the Mahāyānists attain Dharmakāya and Sarvajñatva. The Hinayānists subscribe to this view, for, according to them, Buddha is far superior in knowledge and powers to an Arhat and is omniscient while an Arhat is not.
