In  this  case, the  opposite  name  of "agotra"

　　   means   "without-bija",  or   without-dhatu"   etc.,

　　   therefore  the people  live in "agotra"  means  that

　　   they  absolutly   can  not  become  buddhas.   These

　　   "agotra"'s  theories  of Indian vij~naanavaada  were

　　   not easily accepted  by the Chinese buddhist  during

　　   the  Tang  Dynasty.  It  is a well-known  fact  that

　　   before   Hsuen-tsang   (玄奘  ) went  to  India  for

　　   researching Buddhsim, there were many buddhist texts

　　   holding　　 the　　 theories　　 of   the   "ekayaana",

　　   " buddha-dhaatu ( or Gotra ) " (佛 性), "tathaagata-

　　   garbha"  (如来藏 ), "amala-vij~naana"  (阿摩罗识  ),

　　   such  as Mahaaparinirva.na-suutra  (大般涅盘经  )and

　　   saddhar-mapu.ndariika-suutra  (  妙法莲华经　　 )   ,

　　   Avata^msaka-suutra (华严经 )Ta-cheng-chi-hsin-lun  (

　　   大乘起信论 )etc are translated and studied by Indian

　　   and  Chinese  buddhist  scholars.  Therefore,  after

　　   Hsuen-tsang  had completed his studies in India, and

　　   before he returned to China, he wished to delete the

　　   theory  of "agotra"  from  MAS  etc., but  his Great

　　   Teach  'Silabhadra  ( 戒贤, A.D.529-645 ) would  not

　　   permit this.  This episode was mentioned by Tun-lun(

　　   遁伦 )in his commentary of YCBH.36

　　　　  From the above statements,I think that  not only

　　   Hsuen-tsang, but also Kuei-chi, the Chinese Buddhist

　　   Scholars, understand  that Chinese buddhists wish to

　　   become  the  buddhas,  and  like  to  research   the

　　   buddhist suutras or 'saastras which teach the people

　　   how to become  the Buddhas.  Therefore, Kuei-chi  in

　　   PPHV  has  his  special  theories  of not  noly  the

　　   Avalokite'svara-bodhisattva　　 appearing　　 as   the

　　   Mahaakaru.na-bodhisattva,  but  also   both   Eighth

　　   Vij~naana  and  Seventh  Vij~naana  possessing  good

　　   natures,  which   are  different   from   YCBh   and

　　   Tri^m'sika  etc.  For these reasons, I would like to

　　   say  that  it is a problem  for Kuei-ch  ino put the

　　   "atyantika"  as the Fifth Nature in PPH stead of the

　　   Fourth Pudgala "agotra" in YCBh.
