"agotrastha-pudgala", In addition he not only chages
No.4 "agotra" to "aatyantika", but also takes away
the name of No.3, combines it with Nos. 1.2. and
name "three vehicles" without any explanation about
these five natures.
Now let us see the following statements of BSBh
for understanding the meanings of "agotra".
A."agotra-stha.h pudgalo gotre 'sati cittopade'pi
yatna-samaa'sraye satyabhavya's caanuttaraayaa.h
samyaksa^mbodheh paripuuraye." 18 (When the person
existing without "gotra" does not live in the

he produces intention and makes the effort as the
support).
B."asati tu gotre sarve.na sarva^m sarvathaa bodher

in BSBh is only the meaning of
"atyantaaparinirvaa.na-dharma" of MSA without the
meanings of two types of "icchantika" of LAS. This
is why Kuei-chi changes the "agotra" to the
aatyantika", since he likes to accord with the
theories of YCBh. But the problem of why he omits
the explanations of icchamita" and an-icchantimas
(the Mahaakaru.na-bodhisattva) in PPHV in not

yet resolved.
II. The Second Problem of "aatyantika"
If Kuei-chi forgets the meanings of "icchantika"
and "an-icchantika" (the Mahaakaru.na-bodhisattva),
and does not support the theories of
Bodhisattvecc.hantika (菩萨阐底 ), why does he in
PPHV claim that the "avalokite'svara-bodhisattva"
has completed Enlightenment as follows? 20
"The Avalokite'svara first produces the
