Indeed, there is no wise man who, having known the distinction of qualities between Bodhisattvas and Śrāvakas, casting off the new-moon-like Bodhisattvas, who have the lustre-disk of Wisdom and Compassion filling with great accumulation of merits and knowledge for the Great Enlightenment, and are standing in the illumination over the group existence of innumerable living beings and entering the way favourable for going toward the full-moon of the supreme Tathāgata, tries to bow before the Śravakas, who in their turn, although having attained certain limited superficial knowledge, are standing in the illumination for their own existence like stars.
