c6.s5.t9.3

Śūnyavāda and Vijñānavāda attempt a liberal interpretation of *buddha-vacanas* and they are more inclined towards metaphysical thinking. These two fall under the Mahāyāna (the great vehicle) and the other two, i.e. the Sautrāntika and Vaibhāṣika fall under the Hīnayāna (the little vehicle).
