【THE THREE TYPES OF PERSONS 】- Accomplish the twofold welfare of living beings

【This being the case, the welfare of living beings is what you should accomplish as well. This welfare is twofold: the provisional goal of high status as a human or deity, and the final goal of the certain goodness of liberation or omniscience. 】

So from our discussion above, in fact, our true understanding of benefiting self and others is, in fact, they are closely related. In other words, if you sincerely want to obtain this benefit, then what is the required content? The content mainly has two parts: first is “the provisional goal of high status” and the second is “the final goal of certain goodness.” This content we have already understood.

【Between these two, many of the Buddha’s statements pertain to the attainment of the temporary goal of high status. All of these statements are included in the teachings for a person of genuine small capacity or the teachings shared with such a person, 】

Thus, for us to obtain the provisional goal, to accomplish, achieve, and attain the content of high status, these are all included in the category of “small capacity,” also known as “shared small capacity.”

道次引导 : 成办有情二利益

如是所成有情利义，略有二种，谓现前增上生，及毕竟决定胜。】

那么上面我们就说过了，我们真正了解这个自利跟利他，实在可以说分大不开。换句话说，你真正要想得到这个利益的话，现在有哪个内容呢？这个内容主要的有两类：第一个“现前增上生”，第二个“毕竟决定胜”，这个内涵我们早就了解了。

【其中依于成办现前增上生事，尽其所说，一切皆悉摄入下士，或共下士所有法类。】

那么我们要想得到增上生，成办、成就、办妥当增上生的那些内容，统统包含在“下士”这一类，或者叫“共下士”。
